They have no similar headline about Huckabee trouncing McCain in a similar three-state sweep (in KS, LA, WA). McCain: they guy we were told to nominate because he was "the most electable." "Humph!" says I.

We ought to just do away with elections and just let the drive-by media choose our leaders. They have chosen the candidates for us this year. Un-damned believable.

["The results on the Republican side provided their own surprise, particularly since Mr. Huckabee’s victories in Kansas came as Mr. McCain seemed headed to the nomination."]

Victories? Yet they only name Kansas. Yep, you are correct.

As Clinton was our first black president, Obama could be our first Islamic president. Please precious Jesus, save us from this fate.

Well, watching Clinton go down is what, a 17 year prayer? Well, including her husband, this eventuality has been a long time coming.

I know it’s not over, but I’m going to savor this moment!

McCain has taken the lead in Washington.

Lousiana Republicans won't declare a winner unless one candidate gets 50%+. That won;t happen tonight.

Obama didn't simply beat the Clintons tonight. He crushed them. The margins were 68-32, 68-31 and 54-36. And it looks like we are looking for a repeat performance Tuesday night in Virginia, Maryland and D.C except D.C. will be more like 80-20.

This is good news. The Huckabee showing should tell McCain that we do not support his left-wing position on the global warming scam (Al Gore being the biggest snake oil salesman in the world, with Schwarzenegger and McCain being among his dupes).

Also, the longer the Democrat primary drags out, the more damage Clinton and Obama will do to each other. Hurrah!

Here is what I would LOVE to see. Obama goes to the convention in the lead. However, the superdelegates give Clinton their support thus making her the winner.

That would alienate the black vote more than anything! Blacks would then MAYBE wake up and realize the Dems don’t care about them and only use them!!

Folks,

Clinton’s crying aside, Obama’s nomination would be very bad for the GOP (and the USA) in the general election. I’m hoping that Hillary will catch up, but I doubt it. She is the easier candidate to beat. Remember this — CLINTON NEVER GOT 50% OF THE NATIONAL VOTE IN 2 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS. Hillary’s will be even less. She’s easy to beat.

An Obama nomination on the other hand will be tough to beat.

This is especially true now that Conservatives are split over John McCain. Even as he is reaching out to us, many of us are spitting at the hand that he reached out for the simple reason that he needs to be PUNISHED.

All the good things he did in the past -— Being a stalwart Reagan foot soldier, being staunchly pro-life, voting for every single Bush judge and justice appointee, defending Bush’s policy in Iraq even when it was unpopular, etc. are FORGOTTEN or GLOSSED OVER in order to focus on his heresies.

Obama is just a more charming version of Hillary ( no difference between him and her policy-wise ). Notice that the Democrat race isn’t about issues the way the GOP’s is, but about IDENTITY politics ( i.e., who is a woman, who is black, which ethnic group voted for who, etc. ). That’s a portent of an Obama administration folks.

Unfortunately what I read in this forum regarding the response to McCain’s good will gesture is disheartening. It seems like a lot of conservatives actually WANT TO LOSE and ARE WILLING TO JUST LET THE SOCIALISTS ROMP IN ORDER TO MAKE A ONE-TIME STATEMENT.

Many don’t realize this -— Obama’s record is TO THE LEFT of Hillary. In Illinois, he even refused to support the BORN ALIVE INFACT ACT which would require healthcare givers to use all means to protect the life of infants born through boached abortions.

That kind of future is staring at us at the Federal level if Obama becomes President folks.

Incredible, proven, systematic, pro-DNC media Bias in the USA
Note that never did the MSM mention Hunter. Why? They
put forward the LOSERS they want nominated.

Both McCain and Huckabee are unelectable. The Republican turn out was very low across all the states. Looks like rough times for conservatives.

As of now, McCain has won Washington:

Plus Louisiana was a squeaker. Much different than the Obama blowouts over Hillary.
