the person I want as my President is someone that is fiercely loyal to their country - the same way you are with your kids - NEVER blaming America first. There should be no room in their heart for it. That is obvious to most of us here.

While I wholeheartedly agree with your view I would slightly alter it to "NEVER not give America the benefit of the doubt first." We, as a country, have and will make mistakes depending on ones view. But the fact still remains that almost all the sins we are accused of around the world are either due to jealousy or self-hatred (ie. they are guilty of the very sin they accuse America of.)

I always thought this quote by Calvin Coolidge best defined patriotism: "What is patriotism? Why that's easy. Patriotism is looking out for yourself by looking out for your country."

We ought to have had a pool. At what percent of precincts reporting will the Republican race be called by AP?

My guess: 57% of precincts.

I agree that the Panhandle is Romney/Huckabee country. If McCain is not ahead when the Panhandle vote starts coming in, then it looks like it’s Romney’s night (thank God).

Romney is not pulling away with it. The votes that have been counted are in the middle of the state - good Romney country. The polls in the panhandle are still open. This is where McCain and Huckabee will dominate. If it is this close now, McCain will win tonight and Huckabee should beat Rudy.

Yeah, that's the issue. Romney's areas are reporting now and he really needed a big lead from these areas to counter the punch McCain is about to deliver.

But you can change parties and the Tampa Tribune reported earlier this month that thousands of Dems were jumping parties so their votes would count (since the DNC won’t seat any Dem delegates.)

Rudy is not doing bad. He might catch McLame. Wouldn’t that be a hoot?

Rudy is toast.

It looks like Mitt’s doing okay right now.

Nothing will be settled tonight. Whoever wins will win by a small margin. Then it's on to Super Tuesday. Though to be honest I hope McCain loses every time he runs for anything.

I wouldn’t put anything past him. I got roughed up by his jack boot handlers trying to enter his event in Orlando. I gave a media packet to Byron York and they tried to remove me physically from the event. I told them to get the police who at first took McCain’s side until I reminded them of the Pruneyard decision. The police checked with headquarters and escorted me back into the event. I think this kind of storm trooper treatment of an American citizen and veteran is a disgrace. I have encountered similar treatment by McCain campaign people at other stops minus the physical stuff. We don’t demonstrate inside the event or cause a disturbance.

Damn, McCain is going to win this thing by four points or more. He is ahead now without the panhandle or Cubans.

Nonsense.. McCain won’t do good in the panhandle.. That’ll be Romney/Huckabee.

McCain gets those same vet votes he got in SC.
