Giulianowned! Rudy to bow out, endorse McCain

CNN is calling the primary with 54 percent of the precincts reporting, with McCain their projected winner. Romney's strong performance indicates that he's still in the race ... but "America's Mayor" folded like a gutshot straight draw.

The iconic image of the night for me, from before they called it:

Rudy's bummin'. Also, nice abuse of the apostrophe, CNN, unless you were talking about the Achille Lauro's heel.

His speech tonight was to his followers, and an effective withdrawal. CNN says he's expected to endorse McCain as soon as tomorrow. A quick review of all the concession speeches I saw coming in a minute.
