Romney, the former Massachusetts governor, had 59% of the vote with 3% of the towns holding caucuses reporting. Ron Paul trailed with 19%, John McCain had 18%, and Mike Huckabee and undecided votes each had about 2%.

Go, Mitt!

[lonevoice]

Funny, I had to hear about this from FR! If you tune in to Fox, they already have Mitt packed up on the bus back to Mass

You're right. This is even a bigger blackout than they had on Wyoming. Stupid Faux News.

[FreeReign]

and in the begining days of the surge when Mitt had no comment about it and McCain basically said I’d rather win a war then a presidency...Romney gets a thumbs up on FR as a great foregin policy maker? When Romney does say as to timetables... “ I think its something that we could negotiate secretly with the Iraq leaders”.... and gets a pass from Sean and Rush regarding that defeatist mentality ... WOW let me check again and make sure I didn’t wander over to DU by mistake....

The only reason why McCain got it right on that on issue becuase it allowed him to stab Rummey and the President in the back.

Mitt Romney = $50 abortions ! Come ‘n get ‘em !

You know that is dishonest. That was not done by either the Governor or even the liberal Massachusetts legislature. It was ordered by the judges and courts in that state. Let’s stop with the baloney.

No, youy stop the baloney

If that were true, a decent man would have just walked away instead of compromising his integrity

He goes a little further than just the Constitutionality of the war:

Why We Fight, and Why We Shouldn't (antiwar.com).

The archives of Paul's columns (on the right side of the page) are equally alarming. He just doesn't understand this conflict, he doesn't understand the nature of the mohammedan threat. He takes their grievances seriously, as though a set of circumstances exist where they'll call of the jihad and stop lopping off heads... all we have to do it meet them in the middle. It's all very Chamberlainesque.

[txhurl]

Oh, so now you're calling Mitt gay. That's desperate.

One thing to think about when choosing between RINOS:

If Romney gets elected, he will be in debt to conservatives.

If McCain gets elected, he will be indebted to the New York Times, The LA Times and the liberal press.....

...think about it.

I read that Maine was full of immigrants from N. Africa sucking on the free money teat.....so I guess the Macaniac-Kennedy amnesty will motivate a few Mainers to punch in for Mitt.

I know about Gov. Underwood, and the comparison between him to Romney is extremely disingenuous. West Virginia is trending Republican and is now so at the Presidential level. Underwood was not whoring after the Presidency, and there was probably no one more surprised than him when he won the Governorship again after 40 years under unusual circumstances in 1996.

53% Romney
22% McCain (DBM approved)
19% Paul (DBM approved)
5% Huckabee (DBM Approved)

Remember all, only the bottom three candidates are Drive-by approved.

Don’t get too upset but here’s the latest Gallup for ya...

Bottom line the number one issue for True Conservatives is winning the War on Terror and that starts with Winning in Iraq...

Sean Hannity made my point stronger last week when he was playing that crap about McCain calling Romney on his Timetable for Withdraws... In fact Romney said negotiate it in Private that is defeatist... McCain has always been 100 percent win... Romney will get eaten alive by the Democrats.. with McCain we have a fighting chance...

Of Course some here define Conservatism as a vote for a wall and deportation of all Illegals immediately ... Which by the way is an illogical and ludacris position.. and will never happen no matter who gets elected and they don’t care about any other issue... Your probably in that tent..

[Tennessee Nana]

They told us that Bill clinton was goodlooking , healthy vibrant, young (much younger than RINO Romney

I hope the MittNittWitts all voted for Bill

Swoon

[TheLion]

"Yep, the McCrackBots are in overdrive."

I'm hoping McCain will come unglued just like his supporters around here!

[So Circumstanced]

Wow, you just said it.

[fieldmarshaldj]

I’m not supporting McCain.

[tomnbeverly]

Only because you said so ... now digest that

[GOP_Lady]

A class act you are, calling your fellow Freepers NittWitts.

[Truthsearcher]

Maine is complicated. But if Romney wins by the 30% margin that he has right now. At least 18 of the delegates will be his supporters.

Mitt Romney is the only Republican who can debate Hillary or Obama on health care with credibility because he actually did something instead of yack yack yack. And health care is a big deal with Americans. A very big deal. Go, Mitt!!

Obama and Hillary have copied RomneyCare for their own health plan...
