You can mock all you want, but until voters have officially chosen McCain, Huckabee offers voters in states that have yet to participate, an option. To call the race early is cheating. It is anti-republican and discriminatory to the people in states that vote late. Frankly, it is rude of McCain not to continue debating. Why shouldn’t the voters of Texas and Ohio have a choice? It is wrong to let New York and California choose for Texas and Ohio. At least wait until one candidate has 50% of the delegates. Those are the rules. Play by them.

What separates Huckabee from other respectable candidates like Mitt is that when they numbers aren’t there, they bow out gracefully. Mike has no grace. Mike has no style. It is sheer impossible to win.

To quote from you:

“At least wait until one candidate has 50% of the delegates. “

McCain has MORE THAN 50% of the delegates NOW and has for awhile.

Look:

Republicans(1,191 needed to win nomination)

John McCain 1014

Mike Huckabee 257

Are you mathematically challenged?

Half the delegates to win is ~ 595. McCain has 1014 -

MORE THAN HALF THE DLEGATES TO WIN! Mike has 257!

So what other excuse are you going to use to keep the politically embarrassing hemorrhoid going?

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

No excuse, just facts. This is a republic and the voting has not finished. The only poll that counts is the offical voting. Otherwise, why even vote. Save money and let the pollsters tell us what people want.

No one is harmed by waiting until the official voting declares a winner. The entire republic is harmed if we start bullying people out before all of the voting has taken place.

"McCain has 1014 - MORE THAN HALF THE DLEGATES [sic] TO WIN!"

"Ghost" probably meant more than half the delegates overall.
