7 PM EST. Some of the people on TV should start getting exit polls earlier. They aren’t supposed to reveal any of those till the polls close, but you may be able to figure some things out by what they are saying.

I talked with a business associate yesterday who lives near Greenville and encouraged him to vote for “the big guy” He said that he has intended to for some time. I also said that Hucklebeery scared the he!! out of me and he concurred also saying that most of the people in his large office felt the same way.

Anecdotal for sure but interesting nonetheless.

Do yourself a favor and don’t turn on Morning Joe (MSNBC). I’M SO MAD about how they are talking about Fred. Saying he’s dead. ARrrrghh. I sure wish he could show them!

Dear Lord, I ask that you open the eyes of our fellow republicans across this great land of ours and today in particular the state of South Carolina. May they see the RINO wolves through the sheeps clothing posing as conservatives and cast thier ballots for the one true conservative that has a real shot at kicking the rear ends of Hitlary or Hussien come November, Sen. Fred Dalton Thompson.

In Jesus’ holy name I pray. AMEN!

Speaking of Huck’s roles...this morning on JOE (msnbc) they showed a photo of Mika being blessed by Huckabee. Ugh.

From the article

Thigpen said if turnout in today’s Republican primary is under 400,000, it benefits Huckabee.

Bruce Ransom, a political science professor at Clemson University agreed: “A high turnout would favor McCain.”

Dear Lord,

“Oh, that You would bless The United States of America indeed, and enlarge her territory, that Your hand would be with her, and that You would keep her from evil, that she may not cause pain.”

I pray for the prosperity and blessing to America that Fred Thompson will win not only South Carolina but the Presidency.

Amen.

If I were voting in SC, I think I would have to conclude Fred will be gone next week...drink some Maalox...and vote for Huck. We can deal with Huck later.

Forgive me - but what in the hell are you thinking? Or, are you letting the MSM and dubious polling data do that for you?

This is a very big day for the country.

Frankly I’m almost sick thinking about the drama surrounding Thompson.

One more reason to vote for Fred, besides his obvious conservative credentials:

BITCH SLAP THE MEDIA WHO HAVE BEEN GLEEFULLY PREDICTING FRED'S POLITICAL FUNERAL SINCE HE ANNOUNCED!

VAUDINE

“Father, please forgive us for our misdeeds and inability to learn from our sins. We surrender to you today and ask you to allow Fred Thompson to win the SC primary and go on to nurse this nation back to health in your name, Amen.”

from your link ...

“There’s nobody out there who is wild for their candidate. In (1980), people would have walked through broken glass in their bare feet to vote (for Ronald Reagan). This might go the convention.”

Now where have I heard that before?

;o)

Amen to that!

I'm watching Huckabee on FNC right now and he's so creepy.

That’s beautiful.

But, in keeping with the SC theme, I think I’ll whip up some grits, biscuits, eggs, and bacon!

Nothing beats a big ole southern breakfast on a cold, rainy morning.
