Super Tuesday Polls Show McCain, Romney and Huckabee Splitting States

LifeNews ^ | January 29. 2008 | Steven Ertelt

The delegate count will be:

1. McCain

2. Huckabee

3. Romney

With a very large gap between the three. Romney will drop out after Super Tuesday unless his personal self-aggrandizement tour forces him to grasp at as much of the media spotlight as possible.

McCain should win a majority of all delegates without too much trouble.

Sell crazy somewhere else, we’re all stocked up here.

...this political season is done as far as I am concerned.

I hear you...I'm going to take a look at the Platform and the nominee after the Convention, before I make any final decisions as to my vote; but I'll be damned if I can muster any real interest at this point.

[Hugin]

Hate to rain on your parade, but the most likely result of a brokered convention is a McCain/Huckabee ticket. If McCain is short of a majority, Huckabee could have a couple hundred delegates to put him over the top. Huck is relatively young, and doesn’t have any other job at the moment. And win or lose, a VP slot would set him up to run again in the future.

The writer of this article didn’t do the research. Colorado is a heavily Mormon state?

If “heavily” means 2%, yes, Colorado is a “heavily” Mormon state. Otherwise, no chance.

To be honest, those platforms are a bunch of nonsense anyway. The dems get excited because their folks don’t adhere to their platform, and we get excited because ours don’t adhere to ours.

McCain should win a majority of all delegates without too much trouble.

[D-fendr]

Huckabee may have earned enough delegates to play a role in deciding the eventual nominee should no one win enough outright.

I.O.W., a vote for Huckabee is a vote for a McCain/Huckabee ticket.

[PerConPat]

To be honest, those platforms are a bunch of nonsense anyway.

For the most part, I agree. However, if McCain e.g. locks up the nomination prior to the Convention, I will be interested to read the immigration plank. I could see myself bolting the party if certain concessions, even in a non-bindng platform, were made. I'm on the edge.

KFI reported tonight the polls in California show that 40% said they could change their vote. McCain’s lead is very soft.

[politicket]

All of us voting on Feb. 5th need to cast our votes for the LEAST popular Republican in our state's polling data.

Why? Because we need to get this pig of an election to the convention in an undetermined form by splitting up the delegates as much as possible. A brokered convention is the only opportunity to get out of this car wreck.

[chaos_5]

A brokered convention will give us McCain and VP Huckebee.

Just give the darn whitehouse the “her” so we can get the next 4 years over with and saddle the dems with the disaster that follows.

[DoughtyOne]

I hear ya. I wasn’t trying to put down your idea BTW. It was just an observation. Thanks for the additional comments.

If the platform has pro illegal language in it, wouldn’t that be the icing on the cake.

[the808bass]

I.O.W., a vote for Huckabee is a vote for a McCain/Huckabee ticket.

You mean lil ol Huck was lyin when he kept sayin Fred was only tryin to be tha vice paresident to Johnnie? I refuse to belief it.

[PerConPat]

wouldn’t that be the icing on the cake.

The door wouldn't hit me in the posterior on the way out. Nice talking with you. Good night...

[DoughtyOne]

You too...

Great. The Squirrel Fusion ticket. /sarc

[djreece]

California will dispense its GOP delegates by congressional district this year.

[rovenstinez]

Kind of like Gerald Ford, the only U.S. President who was never elected.

McAmnesty is right. Sick.
