Have a couple of political races to get involved with too - one municipal race and one congressional race. WHEW!
Have to let you all know the good news about Governor Romney!

Romney popularity grows
Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney is more popular among the general public now than during 2008’s Republican primary campaign, according to the latest poll from the Pew Research Center on the favorability ratings of leading members of the party.
Some 40% of the general public rates him favorably, while 28% rate him unfavorably. It’s a notable bump from the 30% who gave him high marks in Feb. 2008, and a notable decline from the 44% who viewed him unfavorably last year.
The turnaround is largely fueled by a change of opinion among independents—in February 2008 just 29% of independents had a favorable view while 46% had a negative impression. Now that balance is reversed with 44% viewing him favorable and just 25% unfavorably.

Clearly, this shows that Gov Romney has widespread appeal. He garners the most total votes, percentage of votes and delegates. Also take note that, unlike any other candidate, the Governor has support in each state!
