Talkleft:
The former Massachusetts governor won eight delegates, former Tennessee Sen. Fred Thompson got two and California Rep. Duncan Hunter won one, meaning no other candidate could beat Romney. Caucuses were still being held to decide all 12 delegates at stake.
Wyoming only gets 14 delegates at the national convention as a penalty for bumping up the date.
Wyoming Republicans also paid a price for jumping ahead. The Republican National Committee has slashed half of Wyoming's 28 national convention delegates. National party leaders similarly penalized Florida, Michigan, New Hampshire and South Carolina for moving up the dates of their nomination contests.
Romney's son owns a ranch in Wyoming and he and his sons visited the state, although Romney hasn't been there since November. McCain and Giuliani didn't bother to visit.

Mitt did great as he was the only one there and his son lives in the State. Yes the none soldier son of Marching with Dr. King, Mitt isn't have anyone to run against. To bad no one put a write in on the ballot Homer Simpson would have won. I guess I really never think much of that State since the torture killing of that hometown boy. I just couldn't believe people would sink to that level again, even thinking about it makes me sick.
