Today is the big day!
My first choice is Hunter.
My second choice is Thomspon.
And If these 2 are out then I can tolerate Mitt Romney.
But no way in Hades will I ever vote for Huckabee or McCain.
I hope so.
Second Amendment = Rudy “S” ?!?!!?
Hogwash. What a load of crap.
I heard that Dennis Prager threw his support behind Romney today.
Do you have a source for this?
I have heard Levin repeatedly say he leans toward FRed.
>>And you’re right about the Keating 5 starting it all off.<<
Actually, McCain’s participation with the Keating 5 was just an example of his pattern of behavior - his sense of rules not applying to him - and then skating when it is time for blame to be awarded.
How many midshipmen who graduate fifth from the bottom of their class get selected for flight school, nearly wash out several times and finally get wings years after anyone else would have been washed out? Only someone whose father and grandfather were admirals!
I wont vote for Rooty, Romney, or McCrazy.
Huck would be better than a RAT but I really like Fred and Hunter.

It’s no accident that Rep. Tom Tancredo threw his support to former Gov. Mitt Romney as he dropped out of the GOP primary race.
Mr. Tancredo entered the race to ensure that immigration issues remained front and center, and that pandering politicians wouldn’t get a free pass. The evangelical Christian lawmaker was concerned, not by theological differences with Mr. Romney, but by the pathetic liberal immigration ideology of several other candidates.
In Massachusetts, Mr. Romney accrued a good record on immigration-related issues.
As governor, Mr. Romney vetoed a bill to give illegal aliens drivers’ licenses. He vetoed a bill to reward illegal aliens with in-state tuition rates. He supported English immersion policies and fought efforts to weaken them. He opposed sanctuary policies and signed a so-called 287(g) agreement with Homeland Security to enable Massachusetts State Troopers to help enforce immigration law.
Mr. Romney strongly opposes amnesty and sanctuary cities and would shut down the “jobs magnet” that draws many illegal aliens. In short, he and Mr. Tancredo agree on many of the major aspects of the immigration issue.
In contrast, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee has a long, awful record on immigration issues. The GOP Jimmy Carter has lately flip-flopped on immigration.

Mike Huckabee supports AMNESTY for ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS!

As governor, Mr. Huckabee opposed a bill to require proof of citizenship to register to vote. The bill would have also required state agencies to turn in illegals.
Mr. Huckabee fought that, as well as a bill to deny illegal aliens taxpayer-funded public benefits. Then-Gov. Huckabee backed issuing drivers’ licenses to illegal aliens.
Mr. Huckabee supported a partial amnesty as governor, in the form of in-state tuition for illegal aliens. He even tried to advantage illegals with scholarships.
He continues to support rewarding illegal aliens who claim to have entered the country as children with in-state tuition — effectively taxpayer-subsidized education. When Mr. Romney pressed him on this at the CNN debate in November, Mr. Huckabee said, “we are a better country than to punish children for what their parents did,” as if that were the end of the argument.
This flavor of amnesty, which was beatenin the U.S. Senate this fall when the DREAM Act came up, gives foreign lawbreakers an economic benefit unavailable to legal but out-of-state Americans.
It also puts illegal aliens in the pool of college applicants. That means for every illegal alien who lands an admissions slot, an American kid is kept out of college. Mr. Huckabee somehow rationalizes this perversity as “compassionate.”
Mr. Huckabee went to Mexico in 2003 to urge the Mexican government to open a consulate in Arkansas. Heleased the consulate state office space for $1 per year (obligating Arkansans to subsidize the rest of the costs of nearly $600 a month). And he put together a sweetheart deal for Mexico to enjoy a permanent facility in Little Rock without having to pay rent for three years.
It’s hard to accept as genuine a recidivist pandering politician’s turn on a dime from multiculturalist, liberal, open-borders, demonizing zealot to true-blue advocate of a no-amnesty, enforcement-only attrition strategy. But that’s what Mr. Huckabee is trying to pull. He hopes voters will ignore his long, awful record on immigration issues.
I have heard Levin repeatedly say he leans toward FRed.
I have heard the same from Mark Levin. Hard to dig out a quote from the whole show. He really likes Fred.
Way to go!
I’ve seen a lot of anecdotal evidence of extremely low turnout. Have you heard if that’s holding this afternoon?
I wonder how they do the dreaded exit polls with such low turnout. Do they poll everyone?! LOL!
Christian Family Coalition? (see post 150 flyer) Has Ralph Reed got anything to do with that?
Interesting they still show Richardson, who has quit, but don’t show Hunter who hasn’t.
wow.
Mark Levin leans towards Fred but in the Michigan Primary since it is really Romney vs. McCain Mark is supporting only in this primary Romney to stop McCain.
On Monday’s Mark Levin show, just hours away from the Michigan primary, Mark unapologetically called out the fake, dangerous Republican presidential candidates who have proven to be just as socialist and liberal as any democrat (McCain and Huckabee), and instructed his audience in Michigan to vote for Romney. Conservatives should not take their philosophical direction from power hungry politicians, but should take our direction from America’s founders.
Sen. Jim DeMint joined Mark and defined what our policies and direction should be. He came out against John McCain’s hidden amnesty agenda, and suggested that this is nothing more than a law and order issue, and is easily fixed by enforcement of current laws. The Senator prescribed a bolder, true to issue, conservative message in order to win the election this fall.

Mormoms spend a year or two in foreigh missionary work, so perhaps those two years are looked on in a similar way that others may look on Peace Corps or Americorps or other volunteer work, that is not military.
Did you serve during the Clinton years? I wonder what the enlistment rate was then.
I thought they (the mafia) were mostly run out and replaced by multinational corportations....
Can you name three issues that Romney hasn’t flip flopped on?
“I support the only conservative in the race that can win. Fred Thompson!”
Any evidence at all that he’s going to win a single state, much less the presidency? Why do you say he’s the only one who can win? He’s going to end up endorsing McCain, whether you want to admit that just yet or not.
They have all flipped on issues, this is politics. Fred has even flipped so get over it.
I hope not.
