So John McCain wins the nomination - and to reward him, voters back Huckabee in Kansas, and CPAC endorses Romney in a straw poll. For good measure, Huckabee currently has a clear lead in Lousiana - with half the votes in. It cannot bode well for a nominee to have his own party reject him after he has won the race. I assumed the GOP would rally behind McCain in the end. I may have misjudged them.
