Didn't see one poted yet, and Early exit polling is already out.

Let's all watch and enjoy as the Democrats continue to rip each others throats out!

Regardless of who wins the POTUS, the Senate and House will likely remain in Democrat control. Are you saying that you want to see a Democrat POTUS and Democrat legislature? For an example of that folly, look to California, New Jersey, New York — all failing states.

Brit is a party hack dou***bag. He said conservatives should just get off mclames back. I say screw him and Fox! (I did love him and Fox prior to this election).

Very disillusioned here. =(

You and I have different opinions on who is beatable. I have a number of party friends in my state who have very blunty told me that they (including party strategists) have no idea how to beat Barack. Hillary, on the other hand...the file has been developed for decades.

"I would so love a Florida like dust up for Obama and Hillary though, wouldn’t you?"

Oh, it's gonna happen. Lay in a good supply of Popcorn.

Hildabeast will fight on the floor of the convention for the seating of the Florida and Michigan delegates. Denver will see riots.

OK, thanks for that explanation, FW. Now what about OH? Assuming the numbers stay the same, how will the delegate count break there?

Well noting your sig line I would tell you of an incident this past Sunday involving Brit....

...who I also USED to like.

It was during a round table discussion and I don’t know what prompted it but all of a sudden Brit almost shouted...”the talk show guys should get off of McCain’s case and let him run from the center, which he obviously wants to do”, as I paraphrase.

Now what the hell did he mean by that?

Who on earth is stopping McCain from running from the center? As....go with me here...THAT’S WHAT MCCAIN IS DOING!

Rush even mentioned this incident on his Monday show, in fact he had the sound byte.

Because why did Hume say this? Is he suggesting that the talk show guys should...what? Shut the hell up? Because nobody’s stopping McCain from running from the center so far as I know. Especially the radio talk show guys witness the one McCain threw under the bus first thing because of criticism about how the guy mentioned Barack’s middle name. how on earth is anyone stopping McCain from being all things to all people and now, according to Brit Hume, we should all just shut up?

Frankly I thought Brit sounded small and petty.

I lost a lot of respect for him. It was a totally unwarranted comment.

Hey, don't forget the People's Republic of Illinois.

How could so many people be so dense. What I am saying is that on my top issues McCain and HC and BO have the same agenda. A few obstructionists can block a lot of this. There is a slightly better chance the handful will stand up to BO or HC vs McCain.

Just my prediction: McCain is not going to win anyhow. I’m looking forward to Romney 2012.

McCain’s already on record saying Hillary could be a good president and that she has integrity.

Obama’s a left-wing empty suit who would sink like a rock in the general election, and take some ‘Rats down with him lower on the ticket.

“Hence, Obama Senate Districts (Houston, Austin, Dallas) which have high Black Populations get more delegates than the Hispanic Districts.”

Just to clarify - Delegates are apportioned based on the number of previous primary voters - not race. However, blacks seem to vote in higher percentages than Hispanics - so black districts tend to have higher delegate apportionments. Also, Austin has very few blacks, but it’s strong Obama country.

The bigger picture is this:

Delegate count has become almost irrelevant. NEITHER Hill or BaRockStar, can win the nomination with pledged delegates. Both will have to rely on Super Delegates. Clinton has a strong argument that she’s kicked Barack’s butt in most Blue States and in Ohio. That goes a long way toward favoring her in the fall.

This is going to the convention. The rest of the voting is just for political posturing.

Britt’s basically giving both TX and OH to Hillary already.

I’ve lived though it. Your foolish approach will cause me to live through it again, which is why I’m trying to get you out of your “feeling center” and to start thinking rationally (if this is possible). Winning does not start with losing. It starts with winning. And it continues by winning again, no matter what the percentage. Reagan was happy to gain 60% at times. Why not you?
