You’re welcome.

According to a news report on Fox yesterday, 61% of Republican voters in SC id themselves as “Evangelicals”. If they broke that hard to Huck, that should make it not even close. So either the report yesterday was in error or the “Evangelicals” did not show up in the numbers they normally do.

[HelloooClareece]

I’m sorry? A liar?

I simply looked up your old posts and saw more pro-McCain than anti-McCain.

Name calling isn’t warranted in this case but hey, whatever.

[bluebeak]

can we call the SC GOP voters traitors? I don’t blame Fred. He tried.

Fox not mention of Fred from Campaign Carl.

>>”Futures markets didn’t believe fox news exit polls for long.”<<

Actually, it appears Fox’s exit sampling report caused Huckabee to rebound, following a large drop when the NRO post showing McCain ahead in some unsourced “exit poll”

[HonestConservative]

Like “conservative” Fred Barnes?

You’re welcome. :)

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

Been here long? A "traitor" is anyone who deviates from your own views on any political issue in even the slightest way.

[RatsDawg]

I am going to blame Fox and the MSM for tearing him down all day, and disenfranchising voters!

Not really, but I am soo mad right now at Fox!

[mass55th]

"Watering the plants."

ROFL!!! Good one!!

[EDINVA]

“Evangelicals” in SC fit into a number of categories, including the large number of military and retired military who allegedly are supporting McCain. Others are supporting Fred, and probably a few going for Romney as well. It’s not a monolith.

[MNJohnnie]

Please read post 1,135 this thread. Still want to try and claim Exit Polling doesn’t have any impact on outcomes?

That is a graphic demonstration of how people’s behavior is significantly impacted just by the ‘Net rumors of Exit poll data.

[DeusExMachina05]

LOL..seems to be true around here alot lately.

"Been here long? A "traitor" is anyone who deviates from your own views on any political issue in even the slightest way."

They are not, you traitor.

[HonestConservative]

OBAMA just buried himself.

He wants to make PAID family leave a national deal.

So much for the Superstar.

[mkjessup]

Who would you suggest Ms. Coulter should endorse?

Ms. Coulter is on record as saying that she 'loves' Duncan Hunter (or perhaps that is now past tense, as in 'loved'), if she can't bring herself to endorse a candidate that is truly conservative in the Reagan mold, she shouldn't endorse ANYBODY.

I didn’t see anything on Hunter. Oh well, I still support him.

[Norseman]

>>”So either the report yesterday was in error or the “Evangelicals” did not show up in the numbers they normally do.”<<

Lot of possibilities. These are just small sampling polls so a few percentage points of difference are normal. But I heard there was snow in the area with more Evangelicals, so maybe it did hold down turnout there, or maybe the exit pollers didn’t get to some of those areas?

I agree though, that the huge percentage going to Huckabee gives him a great start. But McCain could easily pull a much larger percentage of the remaining voters.
