Opinion: Mitt Romney makes it clear, very clear

There’s been a lot of talk, including right here, about the future of the Mitt Romney presidential campaign after Super Tuesday especially if, as happened, despite his best transcontinental efforts Romney lost California to Sen. John McCain.

Romney made another of his well-spoken speeches last night as the results came in showing he won six states. He has scheduled a full budget and staff review for this morning, but he and Mike Huckabee got enough wins together to deny McCain a certain claim on the GOP nomination.

Later during the night, to underline the real point of that speech, his campaign sent out one paragraph from it. To really make certain that recipients of the e-mail got the point, they put the paragraph in boldface and in larger type. Here it is:

“One thing that’s clear is this campaign’s going on. I think there are some people who thought it was all going to be done tonight. But it’s not all done tonight. We’re going to keep on battling. We’re going to go all the way to the convention. We’re going to win this thing, and we’re going to get to the White House.’
