Fox now showing Huckabee up 27% to 23% in Washington with 37% counted.
Hat trick for Huck?
Come on Huck baby!!!!!!!
Ladies and gents, we continue to do the same thing to ourselves. McCain comes out on top every time (even though he polls less than 50%) because the Huckaphony and RuPaul candidates split the majority vote. It just gives McCain another state to claim victory in and he gets all the delegates.
To cast a meaningful protest vote, we need to get behind whichever candidate (other than McCain) is in the lead in that state and forget voting for our first, second or third choice candidate. The goal is to have McCain come in second or third in as many states as possible so he can not claim state victories though he may have a delegate lead from earlier states. Unfortunately that means voting for the Huckster or Ron Paul, as distasteful as that is for many of us.
pretty embarassing if McCain loses to Huckabee in Washington ... not really a state where you would expect Huckabee to do well.
