Our former one term Massachusetts Governor scored another huge victory by capturing Nevada. This is especially gratifying given he didn't even need to promise a 100 billion dollar bail out subsidy like was required in Michigan. Some have counter argued that his support of nuclear power would pour millions of dollars into the Nevada economy via a proposed nuclear waste plant, but I say they are just sore losers.
Personally I credit his success in Nevada to his decision to "double down" on attack ads and a last minute decision to courageously change his position and cross picket lines to be a guest on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Yes, Romney mocked Huckabee two weeks earlier by saying "Frankly my focus is on the caucuses here in Iowa, I think Mike is more concerned about the caucus in Los Angeles." But Mitt has consistently shown the traits of a true leader and after careful consideration did what true leaders do, he changed his position again. Romney stated "I figure it's the only way I can be in South Carolina and Nevada at the same time, but in reality, Mike Huckabee did it before in Iowa, and he won, so maybe it'll do the same thing for me."
Uncertainly yours,

Suckers. Michigan held out for a 100-day stimulation plan for their votes, and Nevada gives theirs away for free? Florida, my advice to you -- hold out for a purposed Cabinet secretary, minimum.
