Ghouliani's campaign isn't dead yet.
If he wins FL he has a good chance of grabbing quite a few delegate rich states on Feb 5th.

He will take the North East except MA & CA.

1. How do you explain the polls showing him losing NY and NJ to McCain?

3. Because he has been ignored by the press because of his big state strategy
He wins FL, he takes those states.

2. He's not gonna win FL,
And he has spent ALL his money there. If can't win with that kind of focus, he can't win anywhere.

He's toast.

4. He hasn't just not won these early states...
He's finishing behind Ron Paul. I mean there's just absolutely no way someone who lost this many primaries by this many points is going to come back just by winning Florida. It's just never going to happen. His campaign may not be dead yet but it's definitely on life support.

5. It's dead. He's running low on money. He's flippin' 3rd in FL
He's sinking in national polls, and Fred dropping out puts the final nail in his coffin: Fred's FL votes (perhaps 10% of the FL vote) do NOT go to Rudy. And if you think he can take the NE, you've lost it. Completely. McCain is beating him in NY, MA, NJ, CT and more.

Oh, and no fucking way on earth does Rudy take VT, CT or ME. Not a chance.

11. Agree -- but that's only if he wins Florida. My contact elves in the
Everglades say Florida is not that into Rudy.
