Both CNN and Fox featuring McVain more prominently than Romney. They want their boy.

Yeah. I remember a week or so ago, when Fox's Neil Cavuto interviewed (friendly interview) Senator Thompson after the Iowa Caucuses.

The graphic they showed had four candidates, with McCain listed above Fred!!!

Man, finally some good news. I’m a Fredhead, but Romney’s win is much preferable to stopping the Double-Talk Express in its tracks. I bet the Great One is having a good night tonight!

You have an overly simplistic view on this. The delegate count matters and Supertuesday is a one shot that settles this. The lemmings are the MSM that think like you do. Polls do not shift as you suggest.

While McCain did not win, I am surprised by how many voted for someone with his liberal record - he even wants violent gang members and terrorists to be admitted into this country.

One news service reported that 25% of those voting in the MI Republican primary were Independents.

Remember--polls are just polls. Wait for the actual numbers. Until Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb are counted, the polls are meaningless to both parties.

What I've been trying to say. The Detroit suburbs always mess things up for the Conservative. Too early to party for Romney.

Michigan is not winner take all

Before tonight:
ROM 26
HUC 18
MCC 10
THO 08
PAU 05
GIU 03
HUN 01

Add 10 to ROM and 8 to McC so far tonight out of 30.

Interesting to see Beasley doing the warm up for the Preacher earlier. Didn’t he get thrown out by the voters of SC because the good ol’ boys didn’t like him flip flopping on the battle flag?

Huckabee evidently wants his supporters to let the air out of the tires of Romney supporters in SC on election day.

Yes, that is fascinating. The polls were wrong and will be wrong until they query the voters as to the two determining issues: (1)the economy; (2)and illegal immigration.

The Iraq War has seemingly gone from foreground to background and the two candidates—McCain and Giuliani—who have based their campaigns on have lost. This issue will return in the general election when we will have a great time with film clips of all the principal Democrats both demanding and declaring defeat.

I hear NV has more delegates than SC. So why is SC getting all the press? I guess SC has more people and electoral votes?

Nevada Caucus 34 delegates
South Carolina Primary 24 delegates

Looks like Nevada is even more important.

People, stay focused. This is not a WTA state. Try to keep track of the district numbers, if you can find them. THEY determine the delegate split.

I think a “silver” would be good for Mitt in SC and finish off McCain.

Why are they talking about the economy.
We are at war and if we lose, the IslamOfascist will
not let you keep your checking account, 401K, stocks, etc.

Some in the U.S. are replaying 1938 Europe.
Only this time there is no other superpower to rescue us the way we did Europe.
