John McCain won a breakthrough triumph in the Florida primary Tuesday night, gaining the upper hand in the battle for the Republican presidential nomination ahead of next week's contests across 21 states and lining up a quick endorsement from soon-to-be dropout Rudy Giuliani. "It shows one thing. I'm the conservative leader who can unite the party," McCain said after easing past former Massachusetts Gov, Mitt Romney in a hard-fought contest. "It's a very significant boost, but I think we've got a tough week ahead and a lot of states to come," he said in an interview with The Associated Press. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton was the Democratic winner in a primary held in defiance of national rules that drew no campaigning and awarded no delegates. The victory was worth 57 national convention delegates for McCain, a winner-take-all haul that catapulted him ahead of Romney for the overall delegate lead. Giuliani ran third, his best showing of the campaign but not nearly good enough for the one-time front-runner who decided to make his last stand in a state that is home to tens of thousands of transplanted New Yorkers. In remarks to supporters in Orlando, the former New York mayor referred to his candidacy repeatedly in the past tense — as though it were over. "We'll stay involved and together we'll make sure that we'll do everything we can to hand our nation off to the next generation better than it was before," he said. Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee trailed, but told supporters he would campaign on. Texas Rep. Ron Paul was fifth, and last. Romney, who has spent millions of dollars of his personal fortune to run for the White House, also vowed to stay in the race. "At a time like this, America needs a president in the White House who has actually had a job in the real economy," he told supporters in St. Petersburg. persuade Floridians that his Florida marked the end of background as a businessman one phase of the campaign, the made him best-suited for headlast in a series of single-state ing off a recession. contests.
