james, to john king's question, can romney turn it around in ohio, in tennessee?, probably. this is not a race anymore, anderson, in my opinion, between romney and santorum and gingrich. this is romney versus 1,144. he's the only candidate in the race that has a chance to get to 1,144. every time these guys gets delegates, that means he's going to have to go to tampa and deal with a situation when he gets there. he's not running against anything other than a number right now. romney versus a number. thets how i feel the race is at this moment. i suspect ohio may be favorable to him than tennessee, but i don't know. i would like to see some votes before i listen. >> mary, if james is right that he's running against that number, the fact that he divided the delegate number with santorum in michigan, does that mean his win in michigan wasn't so much of a win? >> we're having a fight in the nomination process against purity and electability, and we're imputing victories and defeats that are irrelevant. it doesn't tell us anything. go to the 14 swing states. the proces
