Sean is made for tv and it's short segments. He does not cut it when it comes to the radio gig. I am about as patriotic and an American booster as can be found but everytime I hear the exchange of, "You're a great American" I just want to scream "You don't need to proclaim your allegiance everytime! It comes across as pandering!"

I know exactly what you mean.

Look, I think he does a lot of good for the Conservative cause, but his show is just almost impossible to listen to sometimes.

The other day, he came back from an 11 minute commercial break, and started off with the Heritage Foundation spiel and they will send you a free copy of the Constitution bit. Hey - it was great......the first 20 times I heard it.

It gets a little old after awhile - but apparently he and his producers are too thick to notice. Now, this wasn't just a quick plug to one of his advertisers either.

I turned the radio station, and I checked my car clock. A full 8 minutes later, Sean is still going off on how the Heritage Foundation will send you a free copy of the Constitution. Another minute goes by......more about the Heritage Foundation will send you a FREE copy of the Constitution.

Finally, Sean takes a caller. They poor guy gets so speak for about 15 seconds to say something.

Hannity cuts him off, and goes to a commercial break again.

The media gets their votes from difference sources than the Sec of State official numbers, the media’s numbers comes from the big cities first and always favor the liberal candidate more.

Pay attention to the official numbers, not the TV numbers, they will match up in the end, but the Sec of State numbers is more indicative of where the vote really is.

I remember in 2000, The Sec of State had Bush leading all night, but the media numbers had Gore ahead for most of the night until the end when Bush caught up.

I don’t get where the networks get their numbers. How can they know the count before the state of Florida does? Whose doing the counting here? Florida or the networks?

I don't get it either. Every time I go to the Florida (http://enight.dos.state.fl.us/) official site, Romney is ahead. At no time has McCain been ahead. So, where are they getting their numbers?

Where is Mitt going to win Feb 5? McCain has NY and CA locked along with other western states. Huckabee looks good in GA, AL, TN and AR. MO and OK looks McCain or Huckabee. I know Romney can dump a bunch of money into the race, but I am not sure where he wins next Tuesday.

Right on. This election has become a choice of cancer or a heart attack, both are fatal.

Those so called hawks who have no family in harms way can change places with my kid.

Why is everyone giving up ... taking this so hard.

This race is Florida for gosh sakes. Super Tuesday is yet to come.

Florida is full of cubans and old people.

I don’t think McCain has it sewed up even if he does win Florida.... He’s certainly not going to blow Mitt away if he does edge out a victory.

I don’t get the pessimism here.

Yikes. MSNBC reporting 24,000 votes separate McCain and Romney with McCain in the lead.

The Florida election webmaster is behind.

Just how is the official Florida election website behind?

I would assume they have the most accurate numbers

Just wondering how that happens

Maybe if Hillary wins, we’ll hit rock bottom and then Conservatives can take over again.

Hillary could be Carter redux, and we can find our Reagan for 2012.

Its over.
And I am not voting for McLame in November. I will sit it out, and I hope many of my conservative compatriots will sit it out also to send a message to the Republican Party: You will never win without Conservatives!!!!

Can someone explain WHERE the network are getting their election result numbers which vary quite a bit from the results from the official FL site?

God save us if Hillary wins. I think McCain would be a dream next to her.

Yup, three Anthony Kennedys nominated to SCOTUS would still trump three Ruth B. Ginsburgs.
