Just something I would expect from liberals.

They ARE liberals and they have campaigned like the Clintons since day one!

The depths of the support for Huck is transparent at best in this latest “win”, painfully obvious here at FR to more than a few.

A vote for McCain is a vote for Huck is a vote for McCain..

A new chapter in collusion and dirty politics is being written and it has clinton all over it.. albeit this is supposedly in a Republican contest.

History will not be kind to the GOP and its raftloads of pretenders to the ideals that long served the party well, nor should it be.

I hate the HuckaHillBillies. They have totally screwed our party... and for what? A fake wanna-be televangelist who is more charlatan than Christian.

Idiots!

“I will support Romney if Huckabee drops out.”

You might but far more wont.

The red states has a base with diverse reasons for voting Republican but gun issue voters make up a huge chunk of those voters.

For many of them that is the single issue that will swing their vote.

Gun voters hate both Romney and Rooty and you wont change that fact.

What is beyond silly, sickening or sad is people like yourself who are handing the future of our country to President Hitlerly. I guess you would rather have a complete socialist monster as President than someone who does not fit your strict definition of “conservative.”

“Yet more proof that McCain spits in the face of conservatives.”

So has Romney. I wouldn’t vote for either of them.

This just reinforces my decision not to vote for McQueeg if he should be the nominee.

I am with you on this Parley. That SOB McCain thinks this will get the conservatives to vote for him? Sometimes I think McCain knows he will be rejected by conservatives and he is helping Hillary the same way Huckphoney is helping him. I don't want to belong to a party where this goes on.

Regards

Why can’t Mitt gives his delegates to Huckabee, (keeping McCain in check) in the states that he knows he will be in third?
Play their own game force a final resolution at the convention.

A vote for McCain is a vote for Huck is a vote for McCain..

Is it not interesting that just a few days ago Huckster was accusing Romney of voter suppression.

Now, the delegates of WV obviously supported Romney over McLame or Huckster, so those two colluded to beat Romney.

Talk about voter suppression!

But, do not expect the McLame or Huckster supporters to agree that this was underhanded. They can support them without agreeing with these lowlife tactics, but they will not.

Of course, they would have been the first to scream bloody murder if McLame and Romney had thrown their support together to beat Huckster if Huckster had won the first ballot.

I guess it is win at any cost for these people. Just like liberals!

Man, if I did not know any better, I would say FR is morphing into DU.

Huckabee is part of Mcshame's dirty tricks

So if you won’t vote for McCain or Romney and Huckabee has no chance I guess you are for Obama?

Huckabee won nothing. McCain won by taking away a few delegates from Romney. The majority of Republican West Virginia voters are the big losers. They have just been disenfranchised by McCain and the Huckster.

Perfectly legal even though it looks (and is) collusion. Just something I would expect from liberals.

That's how Lincoln got the Republican nomination for his first term.

Looks like most of the Paul supporters went home rather than vote in the 2nd round.
