According to Karl Rove on Fox Dem turnout was 2-1 over GOP tonight. Sigh. We'll never win in November if we don't win the South and both McLame and Romney are clearly weak there. And Huckabee is weak just about everywhere else. Sigh.....

Thanks GOP establishment/DBM for screwing over Thompson and Hunter and leaving us with these three clowns.

There have been primaries and caucuses in all these states. You don’t have to like McCain but I don’t see the basis for a claim that some “GOP establishment” picked the winner. It just didn’t happen that way.

Gotta blame Bush some too for the energized Dems and the depressed GOP. His immigration crap turned the entire mood of the electorate. That and not enough war success and his inability to articulate coservatism as he really is a religious moderate.

I was a big Thompson fan, but Thompson was a weak candidate. The party establishment did not hurt him. He hurt himself.
