“It’s over. Deal with it.”

Actually it isn’t over. That’s just the media lying again.

Is it legal to announce who your VP will be before tne nomination? If he would tap Hunter or Thompson, I think it would help him.

Believe all the lies you want to, but Mike Huckabee destroyed the budding conservative movement in my homestate and our state GOP is pretty much non-existent now.

“Actually it isn’t over. That’s just the media lying again.”

Ok, explain to me how Mike Huckabee can reasonably win it. It takes 1191 delegates to win the nomination.

Currently the counts are (source: RCP)
McCain: 720
Romney: 279
Huckabee: 197

The remaining states with their delegate counts are:
Feb 9:
Louisiana :44
Washington (caucus): 18
Kansas: 36

Feb 12:
Virginia: 60
Maryland: 34
D.C.: 19

Feb 16:
Guam: 6

Feb 19:
Washington (primary):18
Wisconsin: 37

Feb 23:
U.S. Virgin Island: 6
Northern Marianas Islands: 6
American Samoa: 6

Feb 24:
Puerto Rico: 20

March 4:
Texas: 137
Ohio: 85
Rhode Island: 17
Vermont: 14

March 11:
Mississippi: 36

April 22:
Pennsylvania: 71

May 6:
North Carolina: 66
Indiana: 54

May 13:
Nebraska: 30

May 20:
Kentucky: 42
Oregon: 27

May 27:
Idaho: 29

June 3:
South Dakota: 24
New Mexico: 29

Note that each state also gets 3 “super delegates”, those being the two RNC members from the state and the state party chair.

Of those elections the only “winner-take-all” ones I’m aware of are: Vermont, Indiana, D.C., Virginia, Puerto Rico

It’s over. He would have to get 83% of the remaining delgates.

And just to be specific on my prediction, McCain will win everything at least until the Mississippi election on March 11th, but he will have mathematically clinched the election on March 4th.
