Add Washington To Recent Victories By Romney - the non binding delegate state won by Mitt Romney Saturday came before ten states vote on Tuesday. Ron Paul, with 25%, nudged out Rick Santorum for second place in the state of Washington. Mainstream media is trying to add drama to the non so super Tuesday primaries when about 400 delegates are at stake.

The reality is it is still Romney's nomination to lose as his campaign money and organization will be tough for any of the other candidates to overcome.
