LIVE THREAD Super Tuesday 2008

[SE Mom]

Here we go...

The Democrat nominee needs 2,025 to win.

The Republican nominee needs 1,191 to win.

Good job, SP.

3 votes for Romney this morning in CT.

However, in CT we are accustomed to voting for the candidate who ends up with the least votes.

[STARWISE]

Most of us know that was a figment
of the imagination of the alleged
beltway pundits.

You didn’t discern that?

Has Fred endorsed McCain?

[CottonBall]

That’s great — sorry to give you information that you already knew.

Is it just in Tennessee that the delegates are unbound? You seem to have a very different system. I think that having them vote for an endorsee is just plain wrong.

[GraniteStateConservative]

I voted for Fred Thompson today at 6:22 am in New Jersey.

Me, too, in NH a few weeks ago. The primaries are meant for supporting a candidate you actually like.

[khnyny]

Actually, Hannity didn’t bring it up, he was asked the question and he answered with the truth.

Miss Didi, I hate to disappoint you, but currently, I’m in the great state of Virginia. Right outside of the nation’s capitol. We don’t get to come to the party today.:(

[ElPatriota]

:)

[SoConPubbie]

Here's hoping we won't need these come November.

That's easy for me, I'll never vote for McCrazy or is it McAmnesty.

If he is the nominee, I write in Fred Thompson.

Same here in California. Other then my representative in the House, I never get who I vote for.

[Washi]

Get this: was just watching the local news. They were giving instructions on how to find the voting place for your precinct. They wrapped up by reminding us that “Republicans need to show a photo I.D., Democrats don’t.”

[rightwingintelligentsia]

Sure—but could you save it to your own hosting account first? I’m just weird that way . . .

[ejonesie22]

Excellent work.

[CottonBall]

Same here. We will have to endure numerous posts and nagging about how we have to defeat the Democrats, vote for the lesser of two evils, yada yada yada if McCain wins the nomination. It'll be like 2006, but intensified.

[SaveTheChief]

Lord, help us. This is going to be a long day.

[Ingtar]

I’ve seen various numbers from various states. However, they seem to be bound to the “printed” candidate on the first round(s). I don’t think they are supposed to switch to an endorsee and suspect that if someone sued over it, there would be some repercussions. LOL - one of the Huckabee delegates had a Thompson yard sign at one point. The reverse is also true. Shelby County is an interesting place to live.

[BlueStateBlues]

Yes, polling parking lots and walk ins everywhere. A forest of signs, mostly for Obama and Clinton (grrrrrr). At work, and will get back on the thread later. Stop McCain!!!!!!

[NoGrayZone]

I am so jealous! Thompson was not on my ballot here in Suffolk County Long Island. I voted for Romney!

[retrokitten]

The signs plopped in the snow banks crack me up for some reason.

I’m really easily entertained. ;-)

I agree.

Seems the GOP really is the STUPID party.

But I would rather have a Democrat in the President's chair who would cause the GOP to have a spine, then the Manchurian candidate who is going to reach across the aisle and destroy my party AND my country.

[AFPhys]

Nice run down. Thanks for posting this.
