Mitt Romney was already ahead of the popular vote before Michigan. Now he is enjoying a solid lead. While other candidates were busy trying to cherry pick a particular state, Romney was building support in all of them.

With four states down, here are the numbers and percentages:

1. Romney: 443,943.....37%

2. McCain: 361,546............30%

3. Huckabee: 207,308.......17%

4. Paul: 84,554....................7%

7. Thompson: 51,225.........4%

6. Giuliani: 49,198..............4%

7. Hunter: 4,663.................0.39%

The New Hampshire, Iowa, and Michigan numbers are taken from the ABC News reports of results. I added in the Wyoming numbers by calculating the percentage from ABC using the Reuters estimate of 1,200 participants.

It obviously looks really bad for Fred Thompson and Rudy Giuliani to be losing to Ron Paul at this point. It also doesn't help Huckabee that more than twice as many people have voted for Romney than have for him. Romney is proving to be the full-spectrum conservative and not just the candidate for a single issue.
