What Newt said was that the Huckster could be a major factor because he didn't think McCain would be over the top in the number of required delegates...after super Tuesday....Huckster would have enough to put one or the other over the top...so (my thought) could we have a McCain / Huckster /Ticket,...in November....UGH!

I mean,..why else is the Huckster staying in the race.?

Thanks, Ernest. I know, that darn Huckster. Here's what Rush said:

RUSH: Well, but it's a delegate thing. The popular vote right now doesn't matter, it's a delegate thing and that's why right now Super Tuesday -- I mean Hugh Hewitt ran some numbers here, worst-case scenario from Romney, just to be fair about it, and these numbers, I'm having to get them from my head and I may be off by a couple hundred but the point will be made. At the end of Super Tuesday, the number of delegates McCain could have would be in the 700s, the number Romney would have would be in the 300s, that's large to overcome. It can be done, it can still be done, but that's monumental, and Huckabee will be in there with 150 some odd. The real key to this is Huckabee. A vote for Huckabee is a vote for McCain in the primaries. (cont.)

It's All About Delegates Now




Romney Fed Up, Not Giving In; McCain Not Winning GOP Base

Dunno know. But let me guess. Because he had a divine revelation while wolfing down his meal in the parking lot of a Taco Time in Li'l Rock???? While slugging down his supersize coke, Jesus personally spoke to him from his breakfast burrito and said, "Mikey, I want you to succeed President McCain in office."?
