Did you mean for this to be on the News Forum? You can ask the Admin Moderator to transfer it for you.

(It’s on the Religion forum right now.)

Hunter has more delegates than Rudy or Ron Paul. Yet, they are in the debates. That should trouble everyone.

McCain has only seven delegates. When will he drop out?

Republican Delegates (1,191 needed to win nomination)

None of them has more than 31. I heard they're all dropping out.

CNN's tally here:
30 Mitt
21 Huck
10 McCain
06 Fred
02 Paul
01 Rudy
01 Hunter

This fits what I knew better than the Fox numbers. The real Iowa breakdown won't be known until their state convention, but the estimates CNN used are the ones most cited. They thus credit Paul with 2 out of Iowa and Hunter with 1 out of Wyoming. They also assign a few "unpledged RNC delegates," which I don't claim to understand, from a few states: 3 for Huck from AK, 1 for Rudy from ME, and a total of 6 for Mitt (1 IL, 2 IN, 1 ME, 2 MN). To those claiming Hunter is ahead of Rudy and Paul I'm curious of on what you are basing that. WY did pick some alternate delegates, hoping the convention will restore the state's full count. Is that your source? If so it is speculative that the convention will be enough pro-Mitt to pad his total as his count would be increased the most by seating all of WY.

Post #18 is the right count.

The only count Huckabee leads is the number of killers and felons he let out of jail.

http://holycoast.blogspot.com/2007/12/huckabee-was-commutation-and-pardon.html

If you’re wondering how Gov. Huckabee’s hundreds of clemencies compare with neighboring states, get ready for a shocker.

___ Huckabee leads the pack.

___ He has issued more commutations and pardons than all of the six neighboring states combined.

___Governors seldom reduce sentences in other states – and almost never for murderers serving life without parole or for rapists or for habitual drunk drivers, while in Arkansas it’s a regular habit with Huckabee.

___ Other governors use their clemency power only rarely, while Huckabee has made it routine. As we’ve told you before, he has issued more than 700 pardons and commutations during his eight years in office – more than 137 this year alone – and more than his three predecessors combined.

___ Here are the figures for neighboring states since 1996, when Huckabee took office (and keep in mind the population of these states is nearly 20 times ours):
___ >> Louisiana – 213.
___ >> Mississippi – 24.
___ >> Missouri – 79.
___ >> Oklahoma – 178.
___ >> Tennessee – 32.
___ >> Texas – 98 (in-cludes 36 inmates released because they were convicted on drug charges with planted evidence).

___ Total: 624 vs. Huckabee’s 703.

___ Governors in neighboring states almost never grant killers clemency, while Huckabee has commuted the sentences of a dozen murderers.

To quote Eliza Doolittle in “MY FAIR LADY”...

“Just you wait ‘Enry ‘Iggins; just you wait.”

Give me a break. Why don’t we call the Super Bowl winner after the first two minutes of play. That should be enough to indicate who’s going to win.
