Did not see a live thread to keep track of how things were going.
Latest results from VA on the Repub side
Mike Huckabee 12,025 47.85% Precincts Reporting: 169 of 2,472 (6.836% reporting)
John McCain 11,379 45.28%
Ron Paul 867 3.45%
Mitt Romney 628 2.49%
Fred D. Thompson 163 0.64%
Rudy Giuliani 65 0.25%
The Wilder effect in spades. This is the crowd Jim Webb got out to vote. They’re his people.
HAHA finally coming to the realization that McNasty is not electable.
Winner take all for republicans. For democrats, it’s proportional.
Here is the Not Larry Sabato count of delegates. He’s a shill for Hillary, but his numbers are usually accurate:
UPDATE: MIKE HENRY QUITS CLINTON CAMPAIGN
As returns come in tonight we will update this until every pledged Delegate has been called!
UPDATE 7:27 p.m.: Huckabee still leads, but we have enough returns in to project JOHN MCCAIN the winner of Virginia’s winner take all primary. One caveat- Northern Virginia is heavy for McCain and nothing is yet in from Fairfax- if the traffic problems killed turnout, there is a small chance Huckabee could win this.

I’m not worried. Que Sera Sera. Obama might turn out to be a Communist and get overthown in the Second U.S. Civil War.
Thanks for sharing that tidbit.
Image what he could make New Jersey look like
Ahhhhh... the sweet, dulcet sounds of the Juan McCain campaign charm offensive.
After tonight McCain is going to be about 300 votes away from the nomination. Even if Huckabee wins every single state left, he has to win the split delegation states by 64% or more per Ingtar. Huckabee has to get over 950 delegates, McCain just over 350.
OK. Other then Virgina, in the Democrat vote today. NO state has gone that lopsidedly to any candidate.
CNN put it up on their map tonight. They gave every single state after tonight to Huckabee. Even then he does not win.
Hey if you all are happy with Pres Obama whatever
If Obama gets elected, I don’t think he will be much of anything. He’ll be like Clinton: A do nothing President.
Rove drew a line around Northern Neck and called it a Washington ex-urb, saying it went heavily for McCain. But the area between the Potomac and Rappahannock is good ole farm country and likely went big for Huckabee. I think Rove, the magnificant bast*** meant to draw a district down I-95 through Stafford County down towards Richmond.
Like I said up earlier in the thread...
If you all are happier about a Pres Obama whatever
Yes....yes they will!
Hopefully that will PO the Obama supporters and they will stay home. On the RINO side the conservatives stay home. The two stay at home groups cancel each other out and that leads to a very low turnout in a Hillary/McCain face off.
Could be a toss up between those two with Hillary getting a slight edge becaue of the Dem Machine.
What McCain would have to do would be to kiss up to the stay at home conservatives...maybe offer a "Contract with Conservatives" where in he promises to actually do something about conservative issues in his first hundred days.
I don't see that happening...sadly.

Obama has won with significant margins in primarily white states like Iowa, Nebraska and Maine
“Kansas—Barak Chalk Jayhawk”
ohhhhh dear god, wait, wheres that McNasty website I need to send money.
I’ve been saying that all along and things look very bleak for us in November, especially with McAmnesty leading the charge. IF, the Clintons have any dirt on Obama it will come out certainly within the next few weeks.
(Sound of clearing one’s throat, here.)
All that has to be done is to deny McCain a first ballot victory, at the least.
Search for the tread with the words, “can Huckabee win.”
“Could Huck beat Obama in the general?”
Absolutely! Huckabee has an even better personality than Obama, and a heck of a lot more brains.
McCain would come off as grumpy, compared to Obama.
People SHOULD vote for ISSUES, but many vote for personality, and those people could be the deciding factor.
My my how things have changed in a year for Hillary
