Can Romney pull out now and form a third party? He’s got the money. I’d join.

“If he’s the veep on a McCain ticket I can feel reassured that we won’t see any new gun control crap get signed into law”

Veeps historically have no power over presidential goals and legislation. The current situation with Cheney is really quite unprecedented. A more normal situation was Gore.

“McCain attacks Romney. Huckabee attacks Romney. Media attacks Romney.

Media avoids attacking McCain. Huckabee avoids attacking McCain. McCain avoids attacking Media. McCain avoids attacking Huckabee.

Yup...this has liberal fingerprints all over it.”

I am not surprised, really. McCain and Huckabee agree on so many stands on the issues. Amnesty, tax funded consolate for Mexico, maybe tax cuts, closing Guantanamo, no tough questoning of terrorists, McCain/Kennedy, McCain/Feingold, McCain/Leiberman, and the Fairness Doctrine.

The race is not over yet! Other states still have not voted! McCain/Huckabee ticket just may not happen at all. I for one will continue to support Mitt Romney until further notice! GO MITT!

Cluster, Huck has really screwed the situation over pretty well for conservatives with his bouncing around and pro-anti-amnesty stances.

Presidential nominees choose the VP that is going to help them the most. That is unlikely, in the final analysis for McCain, to be Huckabee.

On the contrary, I think Huck delivers a LOT of votes to McCain that he otherwise would not get. These two are a match made in leftist heaven. OTOH, I think Hill and Obama will end up teaming up in a superticket, but that relationship will be more like the Reagan-Bush ticket, where they don't really care for each other, a marriage of convenience.

This race is over for all intents and purposes. Romney would be better off dropping out, and preparing to run again in 2012 against the coming Democrat administration.

At least then Huckabee and McCain would cool off the blind hatred they barely conceal towards another Republican (Romney) and those in the House and Senate that ‘dared’ to endorse him.

This is 76 or 96 all over again. There is no way the general voting population will vote for an old angry white guy (McCain).

And when the MSM gets done with Huckabee after he gets the VP slot....well, we all know on their best behavior the MSM barely conceals their disdain for Christians, let alone Evangelicals.

The RINO’s are doing on a national level right now what they did here in Ohio in 2006. It didn’t work here, it won’t work nationally.

You can say that again. I think Soros money has everything to do with what we’re seeing this year. The fix is in, and it ain’t pretty.

Yeah, Obama may very well be the next POTUS. People REALLY like him, he has struck a chord. If Mittens ran for the next four years, building his conservative street cred, he might very well be able to get elected.

Go to the following link and look at the table on the right hand side of the page:

http://politics.nytimes.com/election-guide/2008/results/gopmap/index.html

Every state that Romney won, he won by double digits.

Huckabee won 4 of his 5 states by 4 percent or less. Those were the states that were horse-traded with McCain for votes.

We need open and closed registration periods, like LGF has. The trolls are making this place unbearable.

I’m considering switching registration to go vote Obama in PA’s primary. He can be beaten four years down the road. If Hill gets in, she’ll be harder to remove than Hugo Chavez.

Shrug. Doesn’t worry me as much as Romney’s pro-abortion and homosexual agenda policies, or McCain’s stance on immigration. I’m for Huck.
