I am so sick of Drudge and his Romney alliance, I can't stand it anymore. Drudge is going to single handedly help Obama get re-elected by his constant propping up and covering for Romney, and his constant tearing down of Santorum and Newt. Is Drudge's empire ever collapses journalism will have lost just another MSM drive by hack.

Back in the Clinton years, there were a number of Lefties that thought Clinton was an ass. I thought, here are some people that I can agree with.

Then Clinton left office, and all of a sudden they became the voices of the far Left Democrats.

I’m not saying Drudge has gone that far, but he’s not the guy I thought he was in the 1990s.’

Maher, some of the CNBC, CNN, and MSNBC nitwits come to mind. Wow what a bunch of blithering idiots some of these folks turned out to be.

Both states are delegate apportioned which means even if mittens wins one or both he does not bag all the delegates, but I am sure that is the template the MSM will use
frankly i am close to the point i no longer give a damn.
I am assuming historically Obama gets re-elected and then as a Freeper said yesterday...its on the barricades either figguratively or literally. Because I doubt if four years from now we may even have a Republic left.

___________________________________________________________

I have never felt that Drudge was pushing anybody. I really think that Drudge is probably the most objective site on the web. I really didn't know he was a Romney supporter.

Just because someone is a supporter of someone different than you doesn't make them Mainstream Media or even bad. There are a lot of good people who support Newt Gingrich and Romney. Perhaps they are misguided by your standards but perhaps they think me misguided by their standards. I don't fault people for believing different things than me but I do hope that when I talk to them I can let them in on their error.

I'm not sure any candidate will ever be able to beat the Obama/MSM alliance but I think that Newt is the least likely to win. He will be the best debater, employ the best logic and be able to show great accomplishments. The problem is that the MSM hate him so much that they will deliver salvo after salvo at him and make him look like an idiot. I fully suspect that either Romney or Santorum will be the nominee, I think that either of them could potentially beat Obama but it won't be a cakewalk for either of them. I hope they can raise a billion dollars, it will take all that and more.

Rest assured they’ll be counting votes in MS well into the evening. No way can they call it for Romney based on exit polls. What happened; did Massachusetts residents suddenly relocate to MS over the past few years? Makes no sense. Drudge is trying to create a self-fulfilling prophecy. Drudge has become just another arm of the Romney campaign. It’s embarrasing.

You obviously haven’t read many Drudge headlines over the past few months. Romney is treated with kid gloves, while minor incidences that occur either on the campaign or many years ago are all dug up and plastered as the top headline on Drudge. Drudge is to Mitt what Axelrod is to Obama.

Some of the delegates are apportioned to the top two winners in a district only, so the third place guy gets nothing.

If Romney wins MS, it would mean Rasmussen was right and PPP was wrong.

Rasmussen had Alabama much tighter with Romney behind, which could explain why Drudge isn’t boasting about who is in the lead in that one.

If Romney wins (which I HIGHLY doubt after living in Mississippi for 5 years and knowing that Mississippians HATE Yankees), Gingrich hopefully will drop out and endorse Santorum. Otherwise, a brokered convention will result in a Romney win. If Gingrich drops out after Mississippi, Santorum will win Texas.

“I have never felt that Drudge was pushing anybody. I really think that Drudge is probably the most objective site on the web. I really didn’t know he was a Romney supporter.”

You must not have tuned in the day he had more than a dozen anti-Newt hit pieces on his page.

And not a one about lovely Mitt.

Drudge is just a blogger that post stuff he is interested in, he owes no one anything.

It's not just the polls. It's also the pictures Drudge puts at the top of his site whenever there's a primary election. He shows Romney as a nice guy, a winner, with a charming wife, etc., etc., and he shows little pictures down the page showing the other guys as mean, stupid, or snarky, and their wives as mean, too.

Here's the current Romney picture, just in time for late voters:

JAK is another "i'mnotamormonbut" who defends mormonism on the religion threads. Of course that includes defending the Drudge/Romney alliance.

Texas will be won by whomever the Hispanics decide. Eric Holder has seen to that.

I have sincere doubts that a brokered convention will give the conservatives a candidate they would want.

More likely, they will get a moderate. If not Romney, then Jeb Bush or someone one else approved by the Republican elite.

He owes no one anything and his conservative readers owe him nothing in return. Drudge has a huge readership and like it or not he influences the outcome of elections as much as the MSM does. Unfortunately, he seems he has way more influence in getting Republicans to elect RINOs than getting Reagan Democrats.
