Romney drops out; McCain is our bitch

From Yahoo! News:

Mitt Romney suspended his faltering presidential campaign on Thursday, effectively sealing the Republican presidential nomination for John McCain. "I must now stand aside, for our party and our country," Romney told conservatives.

This is kinda good, kinda bad. Bad because McCain is seen as a maverick (he isn't), bipartisan (he isn't) and polls well against Barack Hussein and Hillary Rodham. Good because it gives a target to start taking shots at from now until November, and also because his maverick image is a lot easier to break than Romney's conservative image would be ("bomb bomb bomb Iran"? Easy as pie).

Even though we college Democrats at CMU have failed to pinpoint a specific candidate we'd like to endorse, we at least now have a common enemy. Let's take this dude down!
