Richardson at 1.75% with 14% of the votes in. Love it that he’s tanking.

As long ago as August the Special Report Roundtable were writing Fred off as “an actor” — somehow forgetting that Ronald Reagan was an actor. Their attitude toward Thompson (constantly staying they don’t understand the “reason” for his candidacy) has been puzzling to say the least.

Thanks and it will be interesting to see if the results trend to what you saw or what is being reported now.

Watching the two Cpan’s I can not figure out how any channel can make any sense of any of this- Dem’s numbers should not be considered what a disaster!!
Republicans seem to be in much better order of assembly.

“I’m not surprised by the attacks on Huck’s faith. It’s an easy target.”

It is. I don’t support him (I don’t care which politican wins this), but I find the attacks on his faith all too familiar. It’s also very telling that those who would attack a Christian wouldn’t dare bring up the issue if we were talking about a person of the mohammedan faith.

“It would do well to remember that Christians, in particular, often vote against their own welfare for ideals.”

And the secular “ideals” that they’re talking about are usually very transient.

Some folks should not get excited if the Huckester wins and not a trend as his state and Iowa in the general neighborhood. Both only have 3 million population and some of the same type of folks.

Outside of the general neighborhood and bible belt the Huckester would be luck to run 5th

Bottom line, a sure win for the Democrats in Nov.

I believe they started at the same time. But the Reps just announced a 13% vote increase at once.

Dem caucus is having a difficult time counting higher than 20. [They ran out of fingers and toes.]

They are duped in that they can only “follow the outline”, educationally-speaking, and don’t bother with the “boring” details, which they equate with learning “dates” in history. In short, they are the cousins of the Carteroids thirty-two years ago. Still, Romney is no alternative.

Truth is, they don’t even have a clue that Huck has the stamp of approval from the NEA.

I wonder if RATs are stepping over and voting for Huck in the caucus because they WANT him to be our candidate.

I know I will not vote for him.

I agree, except that Huck has been more of a contributor to the progression of this serious agenda (anti-Christian) rather than it's starting point. Perhaps though, as you suggest, his hideous and sophomoric campaign might trigger an escalation.

I for one would like to see Christians fight back. Switching from Democrat to Republican would be one way. Another would be to stand up against the movie producers, newspapers, magazines, school boards, town councils etc. who have for far to long taken their money and then told Christians to take a hike.
