Republican John McCain appears to be in command of his party's race for the presidential nomination.

"We have won primaries in the West, the South, the Midwest, and the Northeast," McCain said. "Although I've never minded the role of the underdog, and have relished as much as anyone come from behind wins, tonight I think we must get used to the idea that we are the Republican party front runner for the nomination of president of the United States."

The Arizona Senator won delegate-rich primaries in all regions of the country. Missouri and Illinois in the Midwest, New York and New Jersey in the East, and out West: California and his home state of Arizona.

In the South, Mike Huckabee was the big winner. The Arkansas native took his home state, along with Alabama, Georgia, and Tennessee. He also picked up the first contest of 'Super Tuesday' the West Virginia caucus.  Huckabee says he's in the race to stay.

"Over the past few days a lot of people have been trying to say that this is a two man race," Huckabee said. "Well you know what, it is and we're in it!"

Romney won his home state of Massachusetts and also Utah. He also added a half-dozen or so caucuses, including; Minnesota, Colorado, North Dakota, Montana, and Alaska. In his speech to supporters, he said he'll continue on.

"I think there are some people who thought it was all going be done tonight, but it's not all done tonight," Romney said. "We're going to keep on battling. We're going to go all the way to the convention, we're going to win this thing, and we're going to get in to the White House."

The Associated Press is reporting that Romney is meeting with top advisors today to decide how to proceed.

On the Democratic side, most of the big states went to Hillary Clinton. That includes her home state of New York, plus California, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Arizona. Clinton is also leading in the all important delegate count. She says she's the candidate most ready to deliver change.

"We know what we need is someone ready on day one to solve our problems and seize those opportunities," Clinton said. "Because when the bright lights are off and the cameras are gone, who can you count on to listen to you, to stand up for you, to deliver solutions for you?"

Barack Obama on 'Super Tuesday' won a majority of state contests, winning at least 13 primaries and caucuses. He told a throng of supporters that 'Super Tuesday' demonstrates the time has come for change.

"There is one thing on this February night that we do not need the final results to know," Obama said. "Our time has come........ our time has come. Our movement is real. And change is coming to America."

While Barack Obama is trailing Hillary Clinton in total delegates, that could turn around as early as this weekend. That's because Obama has done well in caucuses, winning all 6 of them yesterday, and coming up this weekend, 3 more caucuses in Washington, Maine, and Nebraska.
