Florida Twists and Turns

Turns out the bigwig mentioned previously decided to endorse McCain after all. Now that the endorsement is public, I can say it's U.S. Senator Mel Martinez, who could have a fairly significant impact in the Cuban-American community. Then again, Mitt's hardline immigration stance may have alienated them already. It's impossible to know how much of an effect this or any endorsement could have on the race, although I think this will be a bigger deal than the Sylvester Stallone endorsement. 

So far, the InTrade numbers are holding: 62 for Romney, 33.2 for McCain, and just 7 for Giuliani. (Huckabee is at 0.2. A great buy, if you think Huckabee could still win it all!) Not sure how, when, or if this endorsement will affect those numbers. 

Good news for my man McCain, no doubt. Dag nab it.

So, why is it that realclearpolitics.com omits some of the most recent polls in Florida that if included would give Romney a higher RCP average than your boy McCain? Right now they are excluding an "InsiderAdvantage" poll from 1/23 and including older polls from 1/20-1/22? (where McCain has a better showing)
