Good chance of a brokered convention. Need a strong debate performance by Mitt tomorrow and he needs to do better where conservatives are concentrated. Then who knows who could come out. The other possibility is Romney naming a running mate preconvention and picking up momentum. Guiliani is bagging it tomorrow and endorsing McCain. That does not means his voting bloc automatically switched to McCain.
Look, McCain is a bitter, angry, unpredictable, backstabbing two-faced old coot.
And those are his best traits.
He is 72 years old now. If he gets elected, he will be 73 when he takes office, and not a robust 73 like Reagan near the end of his first term, but a crusty, withered old shrew.
I don’t know how this backstabbing creep ever got as far as he has in presidential politics.
I won’t be able to vote for him in the general election.
He is too, too far beyond the pale.
If we’re going to have a democrat running down this country, I prefer there be a D after its name so the proper party gets blamed for the debacle.
“Good chance of a brokered convention. “
Not at all. This is a 2 man race - McCain and Romney.
If it were not for the Gov Crist endorsement of McCain, Romney would have won in Florida. Rudy will endorse McCain. One of two things happens:
- Mccain rolls up the establishment endorsements and wins
- or, conservatives rally around Romney and Romney wins
It’s now all up to conservatives across the nation. Do you want to stop McCain or do you want to let him win.
Huck came in 4th and will be in single digits in most states going forward. You have to be #1 in the states to collect delegates and he wont be #1 anywhere after McCain gets his ‘mo’. He’s going nowhere but home. However, lots of conservatives can throw the election to McCain by voting for Huckabee instead of Romney.
Look for Romney to be in the lead in UT, CO, IL, MN, MO, AZ(!), NM ... basically Romney can sweep the mountain and midwest and upper northern states, and goe toe-to-toe in CA.
With Rudy’s endorsement, McCain will lock up NJ, NY and CT.
3 way races in southern states like TN, GA, etc.
I wouldnt count any candidate out there.
