Isn’t this silly? If Mcblame wins the nomination, he will not take another old guy like Fred. Even if Fred is 64, he looks 74. Take the two old man team vs Obama and whoever. Yipe, what a TV vision. McCain will need a conservsoutherner and one wonders who will be the sacificial lamb but it will not be Fred. Maybe the faux rightie, Crist, maybe even Rudy but not Fred, though I would do that if I were McCain. And oh, the opponent will be Obama not Hillary unless the Clintons knock off his supporters with poison gas! The Dems are moving even more Left and Obama is very very dangerous. McCain will look like old news and even with Fred will look soooo old and out of step that a slaughter in electoral votes could happen.

All the ballots for Super Tuesday were certified and printed before Fred withdrew. In most, if not all cases, write-in lines do not appear on a primary ballots.

Fred looks good to me.

He looks confident.
He looks sincere.
He looks wise.
He looks intelligent.
He looks solid.

More importantly, he IS confident, sincere, wise, intelligent and solid.

He entered the race to advance his ideas, and he did.

Mornin’ ‘Stix. Unless you are referring to the general election, Fred, Hunter and Giuliani are still on the Texas primary ballot per the Texas SOS website.

As noted by other, only if Romney has a fatal disease that’ll be guaranteed to take him out shortly.

WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE. Huckabee is NOT going to gain the nomination. That leaves two candidates. A write-in for Fred and a vote for Huckabee means John McCain. Do you really want John McCain who will be beat soundly by Hillary or Obama once the media do their dirty work on him.
At least Romney did what he could in Taxachusetts. Many people change their minds about issues once they receive more of the facts. He is not perfect, but he is much better than McCain. A VOTE FOR ANYONE ELSE BUT ROMNEY IS A VOTE FOR MCCAIN.

Is John McCain really the president we want guiding our future generations?

Hell, no.

All true. But, he got hammered out of the process and his strategy was almost as bad as Rudy’s strategery. And he looks old. Youth will out, I am afraid. Obama is a huge problem for the GOP and all voters. He is the most leftist socialist pacifist that our people could face. He is a real threat to national security, tax cuts, borders, drivers’ lic. to illegals, Muslim summit with our sworn enemies, socialized medicine. It is a horror and he could win unless whoever the nominee is tells the public why this cannot stand.

I just mailed in my ballot for Fred today. Go Fred!!!

A vote for any RINO, now that would be a wasted vote.

>>>> Leave the guy alone.<<<<

YEP. I figured you for either a Huckster or a Mittwit. Both of their "teams" have used that BS "leave Fred alone" CRAP.

Too damn bad you just can't stand it but Fred is on the ballot.

He CAN be voted for.

He is not a "write-in."

There is not anything you can do about it.

There is a HARD lesson coming to the "republicans."
