This is a pivotal moment in the race and the future of the United States.Anyone that doesn’t see this is an idiot or ignorant.

Bingo! One of two things happens tonight
1. McCain wins and becomes the defacto leading candidate and virtually sews up the nomination
2. Romney wins, the McCain "inevitability" bubble gooes POOF, and the nomination is thrown wide open.

Can you name three issues that McCain hasn’t flipped on? The race seems to be between Mitt and McCain right now....I’ll take Mitt.

Great. Blackballed by ‘conservative’ groups too.

My service spanned 6 presidents, ending with GW.

The Mormons I knew in the military had also done their missionary tours. They don’t view that as a replacement for national service.

And they shouldn’t.

Nor is Peace Corps nor Americorps a replacement for national service.....that’s a liberal fantasy.

I think the Mitt will do well today, my only concern is all of the democrats that may vote for McTraitor/devil just to screw up our primary.

Mitt is just a bit smarter than the average journalist who believe that if they keep saying he will drop out, that it will happen.

He has won every state when only Republican voters are counted, instead of all the ‘independent’ voters. When he gets to the states where crossover voters are not allowed, he will do very well.

In regards to how the candidates actually governed in office, only Tancredo and Hunter scored higher than Romney. Easy to see why Tancredo would support him.

“There’s been no polling for a while out of NV

Note that outside of yesterday's Rasmussen (which showed considerable Fred Movement) there has been NARY a peep out of SC either

It is easy to deduce why that is -- Romney is leading Nevada, and Fred (or Mitt or both) has passed Huck and is closing on McCain.

Otherwise they would be slamming Michigan with polls reinforcing the "MCCAIN INEVITABILITY" factor.

I agree, while he (McCain) isnt my first choice, hes a far sight better than the alternatives. Im going to check posts in about two years to see some of these..”I wont vote if its _______.”, and see how much their bitching with a Pres Hillary/Obamanation.

What? A "Republican" primary where it's at least an even bet that a majority of the voters will be non-Republicans?

Anyone who takes their voting cues from this farce is either an idiot or ignorant.

He wants Romney to win in MI (Thompson isn’t an issue there). But from everything he has said to date, he leans toward Thompson.

MOST astute observation! The only polls that count are the ones tonight.

He was talking specifically about Michigan. I believe he favors Fred, but has said that Romney would be acceptable.

” thought they (the mafia) were mostly run out and replaced by multinational corportations....”

Check the RootyTruthFile, then check who his largest NV campaign donors are, then check the “family” roots of those donors, then make up your own mind on where Rooty’s funding comes from.

I think you might have me confused with someone else, but I wish I’d been that helpful!
