So far, Romney is doing worse in Nevada than he did in 2008.

He won 51.1% of the vote in the 2008 Nevada caucuses, and won 18 delegates.

As of right now, with 71.1% of the vote in, Romney is at 47.6% of the vote and is only expected to receive 12 delegates.

NYT has his delegate pick up at 10 for Nevada. morningfog Feb 2012 #2

I was going by CNN's count. But if it's 10, that's even worse than I thought. Alexander Feb 2012 #4

That in itself tells you the party isn't happy with him being the nominee.

It tells me that he lost all the Teabaggers in Nevada.
That spells trouble.
