As Wyoming goes, so goes Montana.

Isn't Wyoming where they filmed Brokeback Mountain? I guess Romney is better than Ted Kennedy on gay issues.

Romney takes majority in Wyoming

Published: Jan. 5, 2008 at 9:03 PM

CASPER, Wyo., Jan. 5 (UPI) -- Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney won eight of 12 Wyoming delegates chosen Saturday for the 2008 Republican National Convention.

Former Tennessee Sen. Fred Thompson won three delegates and Rep. Duncan Hunter of California won one, as state Republicans met at county conventions.

The development comes two days after Romney's second-place finish behind former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee in the Iowa Republican caucuses. Josh Romney, a son of Mitt Romney, told reporters the result in Wyoming shows the campaign is "running all over the country," The New York Times reported.

Tom Sansonetti, a member of the Republican National Committee's rules committee, called Saturday "a very historic day for the Wyoming Republican Party."

"Iowa has the first caucus," he said. "New Hampshire has the first primary. But it's Wyoming that elected the first delegates."

However, Wyoming is forfeiting half its usual complement of 28 delegates to the presidential nomination convention in Minneapolis because the state party broke national party rules by holdings its conventions before Feb. 5, the Times said.

Two more delegates will be chosen at the state party convention in May.

OH and another thing, Rock Star Communications Director for FL Team Romney is Kristy Campbell not Kirsty SPT!

Go Jags!

Kirsty is truly a woman of many names.

Wyoming had a caucus?

Is he still mormon?

Loved the pig pile on Romney at the debates last night. McCain, Hickabaee, and their kin revealed themselves for what they are: tired old white guys who have nothing to offer but anger and disdain and the 'courage' to express it only when whipped into a feeding frenzy. No wonder Obama is kicking butt.

Obama or Usama?

Rudy: noun, verb, 9/11. vote for me or you'll die.

McCain: I was in a prison camp. vote for me or you'll die.

Huck: I'm a preacher. vote for me or you'll go to hell.

Romney: I'm a prblem solver. vote for me because of my competence and history of success in leading.


hmmmm, tough choice.

Hillary: vote for me because I was married to the President and stuck with the SOB when any sane woman would have dumped.

Obama: I have no experience but I'm make the tired liberal pieties sound good again, and I'm antiwar, and I'm not Hillary.

Edwards: Vote for me because I look so good and you'll collect a huge jury award when I'm President.


Awesome post 2:35!!!!!

Mitt is the only one qualified out that group to be President.
