They flashed the same exit numbers we were talking about 30 minutes ago.

I don’t care. I feel Fred is gonna get at least 20%, and if Rudy doesn’t have to drop out at 6%, why would Fred?

Also, Monday Rush should get behind him some more. It’s not time for Fred to drop out. If he wants out after Feb 5, fine, but he’s gaining momentum so he probably won’t.

Normally the details on Exit polling are not made public prior to poll closing. This would be a major change in policy. if someone is publishing them all ready.

I remember seeing exit poll data in NH and Michigan around 3pm central. I don't know if they were "details". It was things like "XX% of voter are women and they broke XX% for so and so". Or, "Voters said XXX is their most important issue by XX%".

They did not state how the vote was stacking up candidate by candidate until the polls closed.

Those are exit interviews from primary Leftist areas. Those were expected to be strong for McCain. It highly misleading for Garnet to spin them as if they reflected state wide results.

I’ll be happy if we can just restrict voting to those that are alive citizens.

Yes, CNN talked liked Fred was still in the race. They didn’t write him off like MSNBC and FOX.

How can a state with such a huge illegal problem be voting for either one of them?

Right, they give information on demographic of who is voting and so forth, but actual results are NOT made public. What we are hearing claimed around the ‘Net is the actual results have been made public. That is new.

I would like to actually confirm those facts rather then respond to rumor and hearsay.

You both nailed it. That thought goes through my mind as I see how much negativity has been posted on FR. Each negative (and premature) comment/article posted further depresses this site.

The Clinton-Perot incarnation of Huckabee-McCain has one objective — to destroy conservatism whereever they see it, especially during these primaries.

I will remain confident that conservatism can win in the long run.

I’m off to watch Tombstone and Lord of the Rings.

Whatever your views of John McCain, the man is not a traitor. He was a prisoner of war for many years in Vietnam.

Also, Monday Rush should get behind him some more.

I agree. It's time for Rush to break from tradition and endorse a condidate. He seems to be very high on Fred. His brother, David, endorsed Fred

I actually like the Romeny commercial, from a conservative point of view, it is “not politically correct positions” themed.

It is essentially intended to piss off the left wing minority in order to attact the conservative majority.

Giulaini’s commercial could have been from any century or any year for any candidate.

Heads keep saying how great McCain did in 2000 like that’s an indicator.

Anyone heard of 911? The Border Fence.

I am without clue, obviously.
