McCain Targets Michigan Jell-Os

If McCain loses and Romney wins we are in a real serious horse race with no apparent leader. On to South Carolina where McCain can try again to regain the leadership, but Huckabee might win.
Imagine going into Super Tuesday with Huckabee having the best "momentum story" due to wins in Iowa and South Carolina.
Michigan is pretty meaningless for Dems, for the reasons we all know. Is Nevada somewhat meaninginless for Republicans? Who is leading there anyway? South Carolina seems to carry a lot more weight in for pundits? Are they just hung up on tradition or does that make sense? The South certainly is the core of the GOP elelctoral vote.
Go away little boy.
A quick scan of MSM Web sites gives me the impression that they’re setting up for two scenarios.
1. Mitt loses - BIG DEAL!
2. Mitt wins - Barely made it
three inches of snow on the ground, estimated turnout 20 percent.
I voted in Ann Arbor about 1:30 this afternoon, west side, residential area, polling place is an elementary school.
Turnout seemed light but not insignificant. There was no waiting but there was a steady trickle of people coming in.
Outside there was a long haired guy with a homemade Kucinich sign and a woman trying to get signatures on a petition of some sort, I didn’t see what it was (impeach now?).
The only professionaly printed sign posted said, “Vote uncommited - Draft Gore ‘08!”.
“Heard so far there’s a light turnout”
I also heard that there was heavy snow. If that is the case that could bode well for Mitt. The Jello’s (Independents) may decide to stay home thus leaving the ANTI-McCain to get out and crush him.
Cool!
Thanks for that.
So will a low turnout benefit or hurt Mitt or McCain?
Not Mark Levin, methinks. When you hear the name “Levin” in MI, it usually means our own communist Senator, Carl.
yes, est
Some of don’t think so:
“Our guiding principle has always been to select the most conservative viable candidate. In our judgment, that candidate is Mitt Romney, the former governor of Massachusetts. Unlike some other candidates in the race, Romney is a full-spectrum conservative: a supporter of free-market economics and limited government, moral causes such as the right to life and the preservation of marriage, and a foreign policy based on the national interest…More than the other primary candidates, Romney has President Bush’s virtues and avoids his flaws. His moral positions, and his instincts on taxes and foreign policy, are the same. But he is less inclined to federal activism, less tolerant of overspending, better able to defend conservative positions in debate, and more likely to demand performance from his subordinates. A winning combination, by our lights. In this most fluid and unpredictable Republican field, we vote for Mitt Romney.”

I didn’t buy it. He’s very popular here, though. This is going to be tight.
McCain has the wrong party affiliation behind his name. He needs to on the democrat ticket. I will not vote for McCain if he is the nominee. Most right minded conservatives know what he is and is not. He is not a conservative, He is a liberal republican. McCain is wrong for America as much today as he was in 2000 or 2004. Go Fred....
