Campaigning Students Celebrate, Despair After Super Tues.

Bush and Gore supporters elated, McCain and Bradley followers dejected

If McCain does choose to withdraw from the campaign, Germer said the students for McCain will not unilaterally support Bush.

"We're a diverse group," she said. "We have Republicans, but also independents and even some Democrats, who will not automatically rally behind Bush."

Germer, for instance, says she does not believe that Bush can match McCain's political experience or personal history.

"Even if for no other reason than to make a statement, I'll probably write McCain in," she said.

Meanwhile, Tuesday night marked a time of celebration for Bush's student supporters.

When he learned the results of the primaries, Bush student coordinator Robert R. Porter '00-'01says he reacted with "enjoyment, and a feeling of success, victory and vindication."

He expects the Harvard Republican Club to officially endorse Bush within the next few weeks.
