walk away with~

Sugiuchiくんも書いていますが,フロリダの予備選により共和党の「顔」が決まります。選挙人50人という一大得票数をかっさらうこと(walk away with)ができるからです。まさにmini Americaです。(GP)

Tampa, Florida (CNN) -- After one month and three contests, it may be up to Florida to finally add some clarity to the race for the Republican presidential nomination.
With three different winners in the three contests so far, Florida could finally be the state to put one of the four remaining major GOP candidates firmly into the front-runner position.
Polls were open across the state Tuesday for voters who were not among the more than 632,000 who had already cast absentee or early ballots as of Monday. The winner walks away with Florida's 50 delegates -- the largest haul so far in the primary and caucus calendar.
"I think the winner of Florida is in all likelihood going to be the nominee of our party," Florida Republican Sen. Marco Rubio told CNN Tuesday. "Florida is a mini America."
