Romney Sweeps Three Republican Primaries

POLL: What gave Romney the edge?

Republican presidential candidate, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, is looking like the frontrunner for the GOP as he beat out Rick Santorum.

According to reports this week, the Republican National Committee announced it would start raising money jointly with the Romney campaign. A strong sign considering they typically stay out of the primary until an official candidate is announced.

Santorum was not even on the ballot in D.C., and after the poll numbers tonight, he is showing no intentions of pulling back yet.
