While I still think Rudy drops out of the race between Jan 29 and Feb 7, I"m starting to wonder if Huckabee doesn't drop out of the race even before Rudy.

Huckabee is looking at a very distant 3rd or 4th place finish in Florida (same as Rudy) and although he could win a few southern states on Feb 5th, he will likely run out of money very soon. And by Feb 5 it will be crystal clear he is too far behind in the delegate count to catch up to McCain or Romney.

The Republican race is quickly becoming a 2 person race. Ron Paul has enough money to go on, and could become a third party candidate, but after Feb 5th Huckabee and Rudy won't be able to raise any money, so they will have to drop out no later than Feb 7.
