So here is how the News put it:

"Mitt Romney pulled out a victory Tuesday in Michigan’s Republican presidential primary, avoiding what would have been an embarrassing loss in his native state."

Heck of a "victory": nowhere near a majority, and all of about a 3 percentage point win over Rick Santorum.

So do you think Mr. Romney met expectations for Michigan? Or would he have had to do better to really claim this as one in the W column for himself?
