Um, yeah, "frontrunner"
From OpinionJournal's Best of the Web:
(there's no permalink right now that I can see, so http://www.opinionjournal.com/best/
Mitt Romney, who beat McCain in Michigan, won only the zinc in South Carolina, finishing behind Fred Thompson as well as McCain and Huckabee. But Romney did get a gold in the Nevada caucuses. Rudy Giuliani finished sixth in both South Carolina and Nevada, with 2% and 4% of the vote, respectively. If Giuliani doesn't do better than this in Florida, it will be enough to call into question his status as the GOP front-runner.
Um, anyone who thinks Giuliani is still the frontrunner is not qualified to handicap elections. Sheesh. Giuliani might be angling to set the record for "fastest exit by a previous frontrunner from a campaign without trying to win any votes."
