OFFICIAL SOUTH CAROLINA PRIMARY THREAD

[vikingd00d]

Today is the day.

I do believe she did come out and say “no”, although I agree most of the time she gave vague answers like ‘I don’t see myself running’ or whatever.

[Amanda King]

Maybe it was this truck? I saw it at a Fred campaign appearance in December. Took my son's picture in front of the truck.

I don’t think Joe Scarborough should ever dare MENTION the word dead! Senator Thompson never had an intern die of blunt force trauma in his Congressional office!!!

[tioga]

all I ever saw from deep upstate NY, was that she left it open......like she was trying to be mysterious....now that’s a pathetic image........she was so obvious it was a joke.

[2nd amendment mama]

Don't forget about the push-polls. He's been pulling the same crap here in SC. In fact, I just got a call from "Common Sense", stating that Huck is ahead in the early exit polls and that I should go and vote for him if I already hadn't.....Huckster is a scumbag!

I proudly cast my vote for Fred this morning!!! GO FRED.

[Yaelle]

Thank you for voting Fred!

[Politicalmom]

Thanks!!

It’s actually snowing here, so I was going to curl up in front of the fire, but I can’t seem to leave the computer.

This stupid election is RUINING my favorite time of year. :)

[Round 9]

The Gang of 14 did result in the confirmation of Roberts and Alito.

[FreeReign]

Ok, so why is everyone at freerepublic wetting their panties about Mike Huckabee?

Why do you have a man-crush for Huck?

[pgkdan]

Did choosing Bush make Reagan a sell-out, or diminish respect for him?

Of course not but McCain is a completely different animal. He is the antithesis of what the GOP should be looking for in a nominee. His favorite sport is pissing off the rank and file of our party and then telling us to shut up and take it because he knows better...and the s.o.b. gets away with it because of his P.O.W. status. There is no telling what a McCain Presidency would do. I shudder at the prospect.

[DaiHuy]

“Sort of true....you don’t have to declare your party, but you can only vote in one primary.”

this has never stopped the dems before, since when is it a rule that dems can only vote once?

[MNJohnnie]

Umm no. The gang of 14 resulted in a number of great Conservative judges getting the shaft to pander to the egos of John McCain and Democrat Senators. The Nuke option would of achieved the same end resulting in Roberts and Alito getting nominated without the sell out of solid Conservative lower court judges by the Gang.

[Jane Austen]

McCain’s physical and mental health have raised questions. I saw him deplane yesterday, and he appeared not in robust health.

[MNJohnnie]

No it is an out and out male on male infatuation for Mike from that guy.

[tiredoflaundry]

You’re welcome! :0)

Presidential candidate John McCain stopped in Florence at the Floyd Conference Center on the campus of the Carolinas Hospital System Friday morning. Among the voters gathered to see him were veterans and health care professionals. With him were, left to right, SC Attorney General Henry McMaster, daughter, Meghan and wife Cindy, and Dr. C. Edward Floyd of Florence, the chairman of the board of Carolinas Hospital System. Photo by TIM DOMINICK/, 1/18/08, TIM DOMINICK/The State

But, with a Thompson/Romney ticket we’re sure to carry Utah!

I'm no McCain fan. But isn't it the case that, if they had gone with the Nuke option, we would now be in the minority with no filibuster?

I voted about 10 this morning, turnout was light at my precint (we are a more Dem area)here in Greenville. My father reported heavy turnout at his precint about the same time (heavy Repub area). A brother just voted downtown, saw moderate turnout. His precint would be slightly more Repub.

Looks to me like a good turnout upstate, and that’s going to help Fred. I don’t believe Huckabee even spoke at BJU...he’s not going to get the majority of the evangelical vote up here.
