Today Michigan will vote for a presidential candidate in the primary election. The democrat's primary there isn't very exciting given that Senator Hillary is running un-opposed. The danger for republicans, therefore, is that democrats will vote in the republican primary, skewing the results in favor of a more liberal candidate. We'll have to wait and see who comes out on top. The democrats love Senator McCain, the republican establishment leaders love Gov. Romney and Mayor Giuliani and they despise Gov. Huckabee. The republican establishment is out of touch with the republican base. David Brooks, in a Jan. 1, 2008 New York Times OpEd, wrote, "The leaders of the Republican coalition know Romney will lose. But some would rather remain in control of a party that loses than lose control of a party that wins."
