GOP Debate: The Hewitting

2:04 am EST January 25th, 2008 | News | 5 Comments

Remember that after every debate Hugh Hewitt has declared Mitt Romney to be the winner. In many of those races, Romney has gone on to lose when people actually go to vote. For this Florida event, Hewitt ups the ante for the contest:

But Romney won the night, and perhaps the nomination as well.

Now Hugh Hewitt is becoming the Mark Penn of the race: Romney is the annointed one. Why are we even bothering with this process? A debate is as good as a primary election! Romney Uber Alles!

And to restate for the record: I think the Republican field is extremely weak. I think that the Republican with the closest chance to maybe win is John McCain. I feel that of the likely other candidates Mitt Romney is far and away the wet noodle I want facing Sen. Clinton or Sen. Obama. I want Mitt Romney on that wall if fringe candidate Rudy Giuliani can’t be there.

    He might actually be right this time, but Hewitt is still overstating matters. Mitt Romney did enough to win over enough undecideds, and maybe even steal one or two points from Huckabee and Giuliani.

    If he wins Florida, that boost should give him California, Illinois, as well as Utah, Mass. and a few other smaller states during Super Duper Mega Awesome Orgasmic Tuesday. It won’t be enough to get him the nomination, but it will put him in the lead over McCain, and he’s the only one with money left.

    And we can all tie stuffed dogs to the roofs of our cars to show our support.

    “And we can all tie stuffed dogs to the roofs of our cars to show our support.”

    I forgot about that incident.
