Dynamics

So a funny thing happened on the way to the coronation of Mitt Romney as the Republican nominee. Yesterday it was revealed that eight counties in Iowa failed to report all of their ballots. As a result, Rick Santorum is the actual winner of Iowa by 34 votes.

Meanwhile Mitt Romney has stumbled in the last two debates and, as a result, has fallen to second place in the polling for South Carolina behind Newt. Now, this doesn't mean that much. Romney could still pull out a win in South Carolina. But even he doesn't, Florida may still provide a good make up win.

After that you have Nevada and Michigan which will probably be Romney wins. Still we could be surprised. It'll be curious to see how quickly things are called tomorrow.
