Did you catch Huckabee’s concession speech tonight? He flat lied about being in SECOND in the delegate count.

Turn out the lights, stick a fork in it....etc....It is OVER!

At least that is the impression I've been getting.

How depressing for the GOP. Do I vote for Mitt next week or just stay home? Guess I’ll have to sleep on it.

I expect to vote for Huckabee in the MA primary. Not because I like Huckabee. I don’t. But I want a three-way race and I want a brokered convention. I see almost no chance of a conservative dark horse arising at such a convention — but such a hope is all I have left.

Vote for MYTH.

He needs to win a few states to force a brokered convention and get Thompson back in.

My only options are Mitt or no vote. As an Arizonan, there is no way in Hades I’m voting for McCain.

For heaven sakes, don’t stay home for the Primary! It might be the only chance we have of not being stuck with McCain. I think, in spite of Mitt’s moderate leaning, he would be MUCH better than Traitor John.

lol, and I know what you mean. Folks need to remember that Florida is kind of a borderline red state (so my theory is that they are less conservative than other states). President Bush only won by around 275 votes in FL in 2000.

Also, McCain only won by a few points.

Time to look ahead to the more conservative states.

I’m getting the feeling that my beliefs and my party have been screwed ten ways from sundown.

I caught that as well. I had checked earlier today and knew that prior to FL, Romney was leading and McCain was second.

This seems to SOP for Huckabee (or maybe for Arkansas, I don't know)

Keep in mind that if Florida was like the other states and not “winner take all”, Romney would still be the front runner.

From McCain’s speech: “My margin tonight was nothing to brag about”, something to remember when you consider he got the (R)gov and (R)sen to endorse him.

“For heaven sakes, don’t stay home for the Primary! It might be the only chance we have of not being stuck with McCain.”

And write an editor to the editor to your home town newspaper, so Republicans will know more about McCain, and will vote for someone else.

For instance:

Tom DeLay was on Sean’s Hannity’s show, and said that McCain went against the leadership, when the Republicans had the majority, including the culture issues, voted for ICC (where the International Criminal Court would be judging Americans), gang of 14, etc., and check out this McCain cartoon:

Okay...I officially detest Traitor John McCain. He’s the Democrats’ Pet RINO.

A little story. I live in NW NJ-a very conservative area (yes-there are pockets of conservatism in NJ)

One by one, the conservatives have been knocked out. We are left with McCain. I was thinking of sitting it out. Driving in to work today, I saw Hillary lawn signs up and down the Route 10 corridor (heart of NJ conservatism). I was outraged, I started frothing at the mouth, I started cursing that witch out with language that would make a sailor blush. This is usually a very nice commute for me.

I guess what I am trying to say is that I will fight her with all my breath. I will support McCain (my 4th choice) with my $, my time and my vote to defeat stalinism.

Indeed. The race is NOT over.

It is still a two man race for now.

We will know more after Super Duper Tuesday or whatever they call it.
