McCain win in FL equals nomination: the 3 "Ifs"

If McCain
If U.S. Sen. John McCain wins the Florida primary on Tuesday, January 29, then he will become the GOP nominee. After his wins in New Hampshire, South Carolina and then a win in FL, McCain's momentum would become unstoppable. He would clearly win the Super Tuesday delegate race.

If Rudy
If former Mayor Rudolph "Rudy" Giuliani does not win Florida, his campaign is dead on the everglades water. He has intentionally or unintentionally chosen Florida as a "do or die" state. According to the polls, his campaign will die in Florida.

If Romney
If former Governor Mitt Romney wins in Florida, he becomes the new frontrunner. The GOP contest becomes a more open race, with McCain and Romey vying for a sweep in the Super Tuesday while former Governor Mike Huckabee works for a strong showing, keeping his campaign viable.
