The Arizona senator is 13 points ahead of his closest rival in a CNN/Opinion Research Corp. poll released Monday: Thirty-nine percent of likely California Republican primary voters back McCain, while 26 percent support former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney.
For McCain, that's a 19-point jump in the polls since the last CNN/Opinion Research Corp. survey conducted in the state two weeks ago.

But if the Obamanation is the nominee,..."Obamanation" sounds like some kind of a bowel movement!

I guess McCain’s amnesty bill has made him a hit out there.

You gotta love the press. USA Today is crowing that “Florida’s primary has skated into irrelevance” - most likely due to the fact that McCain is likely to lose this one (not that you would know that by the poll that USA is touting showing McCain with the advantage.” ) Sadly, USA Today’s numbers won’t slide as badly as NY Times simply due to the fact that, if you stay in a motel/hotel, USA Today is the free paper given and people are stuck with it. Personally, I think we should be offered the NY Post or another paper but that will never happen.

Here are the Senators who voted against the Cornyn amendment , which would have established a permanent bar for gang members, terrorists, and other criminals looking to snag a shamnesty visa. Republicans underlined:
Never forget McCain not only pushed the amnesty bill, he refused to allow exclusions for the worst of the lot. And he unloaded
his infamous temper on his mild- mannered senate colleague for having the audacity to introduce this amendment.
Apologies to any who feel I am spamming this message on campaign threads, but it is an important message on a key vote which needs to get out.

nobody seems to have learned from the dole experience
Given a choice between losing with a Bob-Dole-style candidate and losing with a John-Kerry-style candidate (Flip Romney), I'll take Dole, thanks.

Do you think a polling company ever scratches their collective head and wonders what’s wrong with their methodology when they see people supposedly completely change their opinions in a 2-week period like this? 19 points?

CNN’s “campaign contribution” to McCain in Florida, hoping to keep up the “McCain can beat Hillary” meme for a few more hours.

Looks like you nailed it with the hispanic vote. Fox News just said exit polls indicate 50% of hispanics voted for McCain, though they didn’t say the % of hispanics within the electorate. They also said the majority of evangelicals and conservatives are voting for Romney, so that’s an interesting development, since the media has been saying we never would. I still think if McCain takes California it won’t be by much. He just doesn’t fit us somehow. I was afraid we’d go to Rudy, but that doesn’t seem to be an issue now.
