The Michigan Primary was on the 15th and Mitt Romney won by almost 10%. I have been supporting Romney's campaign for a couple months now, and I even did a couple hours of phone calls at his headquarters on Friday. I like the package Mitt brings to the table: Free market principles, family values, and significant executive experience making difficult decisions. It sounded like a winning combo to me, and apparently the people of Michigan felt the same way. This win also makes Megan and I happy because we are not big fans of Romney's two main rivals in the state: John McCain & Mike Huckabee. I was originally leaning towards McCain at the beginning of this race (he was my Senator when I lived in AZ), but I have since realized he is way past is prime. Not only has he lost touch on a lot of issues (especially McCain-Feingold, which I am writing my Law Review Note on and hate) but he is not as sharp as he used to be. Huckabee thinks my religion is a cult & he is a populist, so he is 0-2 in my book. Back to Mitt! Megan and I decided to go to our first campaign event by driving to see Mitt's victory speech. It was exciting, and we both shook his hand. In the picture with Mitt, you will see my hand in the middle with the red sleeve. If Romney wins, I will always be able to look at my hand and remember how I was a part of it. It's a rocky road however to the election, so we will see what happens.
