Huck’s last stand

The latest polling from ARG shows a statistical tie heading into tomorrow’s Wisconsin primary.
TCUL poll of likely voters shows a similar result in Texas 3/4 primary.
Ohio, also March 4, is all over the map. Best estimate is McCain by double digits.
Mississippi’s primary is scheduled for 3/10. But, if Huck doesn’t pull off his miracle, the primary will be meaningless.
Most everyone believes the race is already over, so why is Huck holding out?
“Remember the Republican nominee must have 1,191 votes to claim the nomination or else there will be a brokered convention where the Party’s top candidates will have an opportunity to make an impassioned plea as to why they are the best choice to represent the Republican Party in the fall against the Democrat candidate.
Before we get to a brokered convention however we will need to win Texas and seize the momentum.”
The odds are long, and Huck is running uphill and against a strong headwind. If Huck takes Wisconsin, the race continues to Texas and Ohio. It might also mean a head to head debate with McCain. I would truly love to see that.
