That’s your choice, it is not mine.

[La Enchiladita]

CA polls close in 20 minutes at 8:00 p.m. PST.

[pollywog]

Really the only mistake that Evangelicals made was throwing their support behind Huckabee rather than Hunter.

Hunter was my first choice. Then when he dropped out and endorsed Huckabee, I went with his recommendation.

[San Jacinto]

If Huckabee wins the nomination (God forbid)... will he pick Edwards as a running mate?

Are you jokng? You think he is dumb? Huckster is too sharp for that.

If the Dems pick Hillary, he's picking Amy Carter as his VP. If it's Obama, he's going with Rodney Allen Ripey. Mind like a steel trap.

[pgkdan]

would vote for Hillary or Obama over any ticket with The Huckster/Hickabee on it.

I knowe how you feel but give it a few days. When my blood stops boiling it probably wouldn't be a bad idea. Mitt is strong in the west and Huckleberry is strong down south...much stronger than anyone expected. Hell remember 1980? It looked like Reagan and Bush would be implacable foes but what happened?

[italianquaker]

Fox news calls it for Mccain.

[fhayek]

Where was W in this election? Was he afraid to get involved? I still regard him as a good man and a leader in this party. Was he spooked by the (#$!%) MSM?

[rintense]

Like I said, bravo for you.

[The Forgotten Man]

The establishment fears Romney....

[jmyrlefuller]

Yes, it was Joe Biden.

[GraniteStateConservative]

McCain was supposed to wrap it up tonight, now he’s in a 3 way race.

McCain's is going to have a lot of separation between his #1 spot and Romney and Huckabee jostling for a distant second. This was a big win for McCain tonight because he Romney wasn't able to nip at McCain's heels in 2nd place. It's like the Pats winning the AFC East after about 8 games or so this season, when Romney hoped to force McCain to be worrying about the division in Week 14. McCain only has to come in 1st. Romney has a ton of distance to make up starting tomorrow. McCain can almost coast and pick up proportional delegates and win this later even if he can't win it sooner.

I love it!! That might stick. Are you taking credit for that or did you pick it up somewhere?

[MomwithHope]

What a comparison between Romney’s and Huckabees speech. Some real substance as usual. Huckabee is just an anecdotal old fart.

[PosterQue]

And, I might add, the other religions that comprise our Party, such as Catholics, Lutherans, and Jews, etc. You want them pushed out of the picture too. Only the Evangelical point of view will do. Well, you’ve ruined it for us all. I will blame you guys if this primary turns out as it looks like inevitably it will. Thanks a whole bunch.

You just nailed it.
Thank you.

[RTO]

“Haley is cautioning conservatives to tow the line with whoever the nominee is...”

Haley can kiss my hineybone... What a contemptible schmuck... That “line” is likely gonna wrap itself around his fat neck, as he gets “towed” down the crapper with the GOP!

[LikeLight]

GA & TN to Huck

AZ to McCain

(per FoxNews)

[tear gas]

McCain is hammering Romney in Arizona with 20% in.

So much for FOX's exit polls.

Fox is probably wrong about Rudy winning California, too. ;-)

[rintense]

I dunno. I miss the old GWB.

[Galactic Overlord-In-Chief]

Huckabee wins Georgia, per Fox News.
