Re: I think McCain, while favored by the media, will lose.

Being way up in delegates at this point is rather insignificant considering the lead is something like ~60 to ~30 and they need well over 1000 to win. It is way too early to factor delegates into anything, in fact most presidential primaries are decided well before the delegates are handed out.

Also, I'd like to know what source you have that says it looks like Romney will win in Florida. Every poll I have seen has McCain with a very small lead over Romney. Either could win, but by no means does it "look" like Romney will win. Also, the national polls show McCain has the lead around the country. There is a reason why McCain is the media favorite...he is leading right now.

If the Republicans want to win this election they better make McCain the nominee. I've seen polls that show Obama and Hillary trouncing (10 point or more victory) every Republican candidate besides McCain, both of which they are statistically tied with.
