I think you have that mixed up......McCAin is the one who is going to have a stroke! He’s older....and is a very angry man. He is holding all his real anger in during campaigning and he’s gonna blow soon.

From Wikipedia-states with closed primaries. How many of those do you think Fred could carry? With the Liberal-lites running in those states? What a mess. He might be able to take AZ, don’t know how McCain’s people feel about him.

States, commonwealths, districts, and territories that have closed primaries:

* Arizona
* California
* Connecticut
* Delaware
* District of Columbia
* Florida
* Kentucky
* Maryland
* Massachusetts
* Nebraska
* New Jersey
* New Mexico
* New York
* North Carolina
* Oklahoma
* Oregon
* Pennsylvania
* Rhode Island
* South Dakota
* Utah
* West Virginia

SW Florida. Rudy was down here intensely for the week before we voted, and the day polls open.

People here are very passionate about the tax referendum.

Not sure if I asked you if you voted yet?

"And in a time of war, it’s a fair trade to elect someone who would be a solid Commander in Chief, even if he is wrong on domestic issues. (But I still worry a lot over who McCain would nominate to the Supreme Court.)"

FDR won a war.

We're still suffering the domestic consequences.

how're you feeling about that?

Well the time is getting short....and we will have to choose who we back....can FR handle it?

McCain

Huckebee

Mitt

Rudy

Pick one.

Remember it needs to be someone who can beat Hillary in the general....this decision has to be thought out and not a knee jerk one.

Crunch time folks.

Bill Kristol saying Fred is out, he’ll never be the nominee.

This from the Marie Antoinette of Conservatism.

What joy, Kristol, Kondrake and Williams. /s

You can blame Fox or whomever but Thompson is done. He was too slow and not enough blow. He even left early tonight, he wasn’t serious about his candidacy.
Yes, I was in his camp.

Our we not talking about the race?

Is it not dying on the vine we already lost Hunter and Fred is not far behind!

I was hoping Fred got into 2nd place I surely do not want Macacabee or McCain! Yuck!

Reagan was asked in a debate about the great age difference between him and his opponent. Ronnie quipped, “I won’t hold his inexperience against him.” Brought down the house.

And THAT’S why I think he is leading. National Security is still the number one issue with Republicans. They look the other way on all of McCain's sins and know that the guy will kick Muslim tail.

Now that said, Fred would kick butt when it comes to National Security, but somewhere along the line the wheels fell off his campaign. I at least hope he stays around for the next debate. I am so depressed tonight....
