He’s better than his father.
No on term limits
Yes on the 4 Injun agreements
McCain is on Fox right now giving speech.
LOL!
Not just a minister. He’s a Baptist minister.
OK. Bush stopped Kyoto, Bush appointed conservatives to the Supreme court, Bush opposed embryonic stem cell research, Bush stopped the use of public money for abortions.
I could do more research and find more, but where does your buddy McCain stand on these issues?
“Believe me, I’ve done my research.”
Not in this case, because Romney was, at one time, pro choice.
Billy F. Joel??
Maybe Charlie Daniels and Suzi Boguss could work up a little something about the end of the republic.
The problem is that the states that Romney is carrying, other than his own state of Massachusetts and maybe Minnesota, if the caucus numbers hold up, are small states. McCain is carrying the big prizes: New York, New Jersey, and Illinois. If he carries California, the fat lady may well have sung. Huckabee has only won in Southern and Border states. Other than Iowa, he has yet to win in a Northern or Western state. The bottom line is that Huckabee cannot win. Paul might as well go back to his day job, or better yet, enjoy his retirement. Romney must ask himself whether he is willing to spend more of his children’s inheritance on a diminishing chance. In a two man race, he may win Texas, but his odds in Ohio and Pennsylvania are not good.
Msnbc showed how Mitt could actually end up with more delegates than McCain tonight....long odds of course. That would be something though.
I like the idea.
Anything to not get McAmnesty or the other Democrats.
FWIW....Hugh Hewitt saying McCain will win CA.....Romney down 60,000 votes in LA and OrCo.
Absentee balloting used to be for shut-ins and travelers and the military; about ten years ago, it started getting snob appeal, so I would expect absentee ballots to break for the more liberal candidates.
Nice that McCain’s mom is still around to see this.
People bash the people they wish they could be!!!
The mittbots will tell you there is still Alaska! And it is those darn religious right voters (all 5 of them) in California that have hosed Romney.
McCain can give all the speeches he wants....the MSM can prop him up as the conservative candidate....but McCain did NOT win any decisive victory tonight. The delegates are split and the base is certainly NOT in favor of him. I wouldn’t want to claim victory under these circumstances.
Bitter about a great man of the Senate sabotaged by the purist mafia, the liberal media, the Sleaze Machine, the MTV attention span, the country-club GOP elites and the liberal media (twice as bad as the rest).
But when I said bitter, what I really meant was wistful, as in ‘mindful of the bittersweet’ and regretful of all the might-have-beens.
The GOP is adrift, as the country is, and a wave of liberal socialism and isolationism is coming.
