This morning I heard on the radio that ‘Romney swept the primaries in five states where he met with Little Opposition’.

With an entertaining distinction.

A Smart Politics review of Republican primary election data since 1972 finds that Mitt Romney’s performances in Delaware and Pennsylvania mark the first time a GOP frontrunner has failed to reach the 60 percent mark in a contest conducted after his last major challenger dropped out of the race.
