Last night McCain has won enough delegates to claim for certain that he will be the nominee. As a consequence Mike Huckabee dropped out of the race.
Goodbye Mike :
In his victory speech in Texas, John McCain, made a broad call for Republican unity : congratulating all his opponents for the nomination.
He emphasized his love of America and his tough stance on terrorism and his support of the war in Irak despite the failing tactics used by the present administration.
He also criticized the Democratic stance on the war, mocked their criticism of NAFTA as a political tactic to seduce voters in clear disregard of the reality of a global economy, he rebutted the idea of more State intervention in health care and in the economy. Instead he offers to lower taxes to help the American businesses and citizens. He also implied that the Democrats were all about talking and not about listening, all about empty rhetoric and not about honesty. However he did lift the cliché Democratic line of the month : "we make history" !
He is neither firmly attacking Clinton nor Obama, thus acknowledging that the Democratic race is extremely tight.
