LIVE THREAD II
thank you
CNN calling New York for McLame....
Texas is WTA or proportional?
I know of several people, in particular 3 women in *my* church, who will most likely vote for the Dyke or OSama Bama.
Their most likely reasoning:;
Well, (s)he wont’ send my son off to war!!
of course, ALL THREE are too STUPID to realize that if either of those 2 win—she may not have to worry about her “son being sent off to a war”—HE MAY HAVE TO FIGHT TERRORISTS HERE ON OUR OWN STREETS!!
I long for the good’ol days of Reagan.
And Romney campaigned hard in MO. Sad. He is not having a good night. I hope CA can do something for the man.
AZ is very conservative. Let’s hope the exit polls are wrong, cuz it seems they have been all night.

The following is an excerpt.
Amnesty Will Cost U.S. Taxpayers at Least $2.6 Trillion
The Senate is currently considering a massive immigration reform bill, the “Secure Borders, Economic Opportunity and Immigration Reform Act of 2007” (S. 1348). This bill would grant amnesty to nearly all illegal immigrants currently in the United States.
The fiscal consequences of this amnesty will vary depending on the time period analyzed. It is expected that many illegal immigrants who are currently working “off the books” and paying no direct taxes will begin to work “on the books” after receiving amnesty, and therefore tax payments will rise immediately. By contrast, under S. 1348, benefits to these immigrants from Social Security, Medicare, and most means-tested welfare programs (such as Food Stamps, public housing, and Temporary Assistance to Needy Families) will be delayed for many years. In consequence, then, the increase in taxes and fines paid by amnesty recipients may initially exceed slightly the increase in government benefits received. In the long run, however, the opposite will be true. In particular, the cost of retirement benefits for amnesty recipients is likely to be very large. Overall, the net cost to taxpayers of retirement benefits for amnesty recipients is likely to be at least $2.6 trillion.
I was just about to ask which states are winner take all and which split the delegates.
I hope that Romney does better in the west...it took me a while to come around to support him - I will not be able to bring myself to vote for McCain - EVER.
I don’t understand that either.
“Any conservative who votes for Romney is gullible or not a conservative”
Thinking Huckabee gets in the WH is gullible.
CNN calling New York for McLame....
Must be that New York Times support.
McCain just got all those NY delegates. Ugh.
I won’t vote for McCain in the general. I’ll sit it out.
It is funny how the Mittbotts can be totally dispectful of other candidates and play Drama Queens when anybody questions Romney’s liberal record and series of flip flops ... and cry foul.
You’re a lying sack
Hope Obama wins California..... Hillary is getting the smaller states.... I would like to see her bow out tonight... not that she would but we can hope. Obama would be stupid to pick her for VP if he is the “chosen one”
FR owes nothing to any party. Remember that. And that will be a bitter pill to swallow in November, as well.
I’ve about decided I’m going to do the same thing if it’s a McCain ticket. Not sure yet......long way to go.
Texans just want our opportunity to VOTE!
You got that right, the da*m family is just waiting..
That differs from post #308.
