And finally, it looks like Michigan has dropped the idea of moving the primary later than Feb. 28. They'll keep it on Feb. 28, but the legislature is working on a bill that would change the primary from open to closed:
Bad news for Romney I guess, because Independents would certainly "fatten up" Romney's margin over Perry in MI. But if it's only Republicans, it's more uncertain, especially after SC.
Eh, you just have to verbally declare yourself a Republican, if I remember correctly. I, as a registered Democrat, can vote in the closed primary by just lying about my affiliation to the poll workers. They won't know the difference.
