MSNBC: NBC News now confirming that Giuliani will endorse John McCain tomorrow.

They probably made that deal long ago.

I don’t think he has a choice. ;)

During the next debate, Romney MUST call McCain on the lies he’s told the past few days about his record. Short of that McCain will continue his momentum especially if Rudy backs him.

And McCain could have a melt down too.....

Face it ... here on Super Tuesday ... this is the best case scenario for your guy Romney (he basically has to hope Huckabee does well)

McCain does any better than predicted ... it is over for you boy Mitt

Alabama
1. Huckabee, 2. McCain, 3. Romney

Alaska
???

Arizona
1. McCain, 2. Romney, 3. Huckabee

Arkansas
1. Huckabee, 2. McCain, Romney

California
1-2 Tossup 3. Huckabee

Colorado
1. Romney 2. McCain 3. Paul

Conn
1. Tossup, 3. Huckabee

Delaware
1. McCain, 2. Romney, 3. Huckabee

Georgia
1. Huckabee, 2. McCain, 3. Romney

Illinois
1. McCain, 2. Romney, 3. Huckabee

Mass
1. Romney, 2. McCain, 3. Huckabee

Minnesota
1. McCain, 2. Romney, 3. Huckabee

Missouri
1. Huckabee, 2. McCain, 3. Romney

Montana
1. Romney, 2. McCain, 3. Huckabee

New Jersey
1. McCain, 2. Romney, 3. Huckabee

New York
1. McCain, 2. Romney, 3. Huckabee

North Dakota
1. Romney, 2. McCain, 3. Huckabee

Oklahoma
1. Huckabee, 2. McCain, 3. Romney

Tennessee
1. Huckabee, 2. McCain, 3. Romney

Utah
1. Romney, 2. McCain, 3. Paul

West Virginia
1. McCain, 2. Huckabee, 3. Romney

This is the best case scenario for Romney ... you tell me where he will do better (he has to also hope that Huckabee wins where I have Huckabee #1).

"Ready or not...Top Gun Maverick McCain Is Now On AFTERBURNERS"

Maverick what?

He's a maverick conservative, which means he votes conservative 51% of the time and then, when he's really excited about an issue and finally willing to throw some enthusiasm into it, he kicks in the afterburners for liberal ideas: Open borders, high taxes, global warming restrictions and outlawing free speech in the 60 days before a national election.......and loves to complain about conservative.

Ahhh yes, but I’m NOT RUNNING for president, am I?

My position was never as a Romney supporter- though looking at our dwindling choices he looks better to me than McCain.

As to your lecture on having known John McCain’s father- that’s well and good- but we’re not electing his father, are we? This, for me, is about the conservative movement, it’s not about the RNC or the GOP or who of the wheelers and dealers tell me is the best.

This is about LIBERTY.. and McCain has already shown me he has low regard for it.

Clinton is seeing what happens if your own people turn against you.

McCain is not "my own people." He made the decision I wasn't in his club many years ago.

The other candidates in this primary received votes rather than Mitt because - they could not vote for Mitt.
ft they wern’t in the race, there probably would have been write ins or stay at home voters.
Don’t blame Fred and the others.

I hate to toot my own horn but...

Here's my predictions for Florida:

McCain - first
Romney - second
Giuliani - third
Huckabee - fourth
The Nutter - last


This is the victory that will propel John McCain to the Republican nomination and eventually the White House. I also predict Giuliani will drop out by the end of the week and endorse McCain.


http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1961182/posts?page=11#11

I also think Fred Thompson will be endorsing McCain soon.

An earlier poster here said they were allowing people to switch registration at the last minute to vote in our primary.

You can be sure that happened days and weeks before and possibly up to the last minute. The total vote in the GOP primary is over a half million more than they expected.

Once again, I think, the RAT crossovers give a GOP primary to McCain. There will be no RAT crossovers on February 5.

I live in Fla. and have for 61 years.

The only reason McCrazy won is because he played it as dirty as he could from push poles to lies to you name it. And, the rinos which have infested the state from the gov. down, supported this bum since he is so weak on immigration and he is chief of the rinos in the senate.

If the other states are like that as well than the entire country is in a world of shi_ and we are all in trouble.

Father-son comparisons are irrelevant.

For every son who is like his father, there is a father who wonders how his son could have shot up a shopping mall or slit the throats of a best friend's family during a midnight trespass.

McCain needs to mend more than fences. Would the Admiral have approved of his McCain-Feingold atrocity? His marital fiasco's?

I doubt it. Most servicemen I know have a certain level of dignity, honor and love of this country's ideals than McCain has shown me, thus far.

We have a difference of opinion, here. But, McCain is certainly not above reproach or criticism. That is not what he, and others, are supposed to have fought for.

“’And finally, just MHO, but I believe that Republicans, and conservatives especially, are about to enter our “Wilderness Years” “”

“You got that right. I’m bowing out for the next one to two terms. Will concentrate on feathering my little nest and living in it. Luckily I’m old enough so that I most likely will be dead before the true sh*t hits the fan. You younger suckers who support the liberal RINO McQueeg, are the ones who will truly have to suffer. One plus is that I am so disgusted with the whole political scenario, that I will stop watching Fox (McCain supporters almost all) Cable News, CNN, and PMSNBC. Especially the jerk talking heads on all of these channels, BOR, Brit Hume, Sean Hannity, Fred Barnes, Mort Kondrake, Anderson Cooper, Chrissy Matthews, Keith Olbermann, Dick Morris, David Schuster, Tucker Carlson, Lou Dobbs, etc. etc. etc. Kiss them all goodbye. Even hopping on this website is going to be less as I won’t be able to stomach any thread about McCain or Clinton (whichever ends up Prez). Will have to stick to the religious or historical or archeological or cartoon or food, music, arts threads. Refuse to get nauseated by looking at any of the political threads. Well, at least I’ll have time back in my life to pursue other interests. Thank goodness I do have other interests.”

This sounds like a good plan. I am going to read a book about RR.
I am going to disconnect from the screeming heads and the political world until Billary makes me attend a May Day celebration.
