Romney, Staying In

CBS' Whitaker, at Romney HQ: "No matter what happens tonight, they're telling us that they're going to go on."

"There's a big question mark about John McCain. ... This is a very fluid race" -- Romney press sec. Kevin Madden (MSNBC).

Politico’s Allen: “Without Huckabee in the race, Mitt Romney would be doing much better. … He’s also chipping away at the conservative vote in other states [aside from WV and AR]” (ABC).

Meanwhile, at Romney's "victory party" at the Boston convention center, "a few hundred supporters are packed into a small space, standing around, quietly chatting and quaffing $5.50 beers as they await the returns." However, "the mood becomes a little more boisterous when a Romney surrogate is being interviewed by television" ("The Trail").
