6% say they’ll vote for some other candidate

That dang Mickey Mouse! Well, I guess it's somewhat of a home state for him....

Sick of McClaim. Did everything against conservative values, and now claims he is a conservative.

A vote for Mike Huckabee is a vote for John McCain.

Montana is definitely Romney territory.

He's the only one to campaign there. We'll see. There are a very small number of people who vote. I'd imagine Romney got a lot of Mormons into precinct positions.

Zogby, however, is normally an unreliable predictive indicator, and Rasmussen's polling has proven more reliable than most.

This may be true on the whole, but in Florida, Rasmussen had Romney up by about 2-3% and Zogby had McManiac up by about 5-6%, and as it turned out, Zogby hit it spot-on in FL.

Rasmussen’s polling has been more weighted to Romney than other polls, and has underestimated McCain. I suspect his turnout screening is tighter and higher turnout has pushed things McCain’s way.

Yeah, your McClaim made many deals with libs in the Senate that are not supported by the majority of conservatives. Can't wait to see those "independents" dump him in the general election.

McCain is going to leave the GOP when he doesn’t get the nomination this time.
Maybe you can follow him out : )

John McCain changed after the 2000 election. Now he will try to return to being the pre-2000 McCain. It won’t work.

...”Zogby hit it spot-on in FL.”

Exactly. And I sure hope and pray Zogby’s spot-on in California too.

After McCain’s terrible performance in the debate last week, maybe Republicans in California are beginning to wise up to the fact that McCain would make a very poor nominee.

Believe me, I’ve thought of leaving the GOP. Too many scumbag liberals like Mitt as officeholders.

But it is working and will likely continue to work. The American People as a whole do not follow politics as do Freepers and they will believe whatever the MSM tells them.
How else can you explain McCain winning anywhere among Republicans.... how soon they forget Keating, alliances for bad legislation with Feingold, and Kennedy, and Lieberman.
And perhaps one of his worst moves, leading the gang of 14!
