Not a shock of course but it sounds like Romney rolled in NH, Paul is supposedly going to finish second. Onto SC I guess, I wonder if anyone decides to call it quits.

I also find this a nice victory of Ron Paul. Although increasing, the media doesn't give him a lot of exposure. However, if he ends up being Romney's only real contender while the others start dropping out (and it sure is looking that way because of his consistency in the last two primaries), they're gonna be forced to give him more exposure. If that happens, I can see him giving Romney a huge scare. I think it also helps that most of Paul's donations come from private citizens (especially military) while most of Romney's come from big corporations.

I think everyone stays until the SC primary. And I say Huntsman is definitely gone if he doesn't finish in the top 3. Perry and Gingrich are gone if they don't finish in the top 2.

I agree that Gingrich, Perry and Huntsman will drop out if they do poorly in SC, although Huntsman will probably make another run in '16 if Obama is re-elected. Gingrich will never have the grace to retire completely from public life.
