FROM CNN's Jack Cafferty:
So now what?
It’s no surprise that Rick Santorum is hanging it up. The only person who didn't acknowledge his campaign was over was Rick Santorum.
Newt Gingrich is toast. He even said over the weekend Mitt Romney is the most likely nominee. And Ron Paul doesn't have enough delegates to fill a phone booth.
Which means - ready? The general election game is on.
Romney and Barack Obama have already started taking shots at each other. But now, and for the next seven months, it turns into a blood sport.
Unlimited PAC money for vicious attack ads. Saturation bombing of the airwaves, especially in swing states, as the parties to try to persuade the electorate that theirs is the better path.
I think if I lived in Ohio I would be inclined to move - just until after the election.
The truth will be stretched and distorted and manipulated until it's no longer recognizable.
And all this will happen while Romney and Obama look us straight in the eye and solemnly swear that if we just elect them, all our problems will be solved.
The truth is, neither one of them can begin to solve our problems. The problems are too big and the mechanism for solving them - the federal government - is too badly broken.
But it won't matter. They'll both promise us anything if we will just vote for them.
Here’s my question to you: How ready are you for the general election campaign to start?
Interested to know which ones made it on air?
