Wouldn’t that be an ugly win. I long for a day when our views are championed again and we go to the polls and gladly vote for the candidate of our choice.

**The only way McCain has a chance to win is if Hillary pulls a backroom deal at the convention and gets the nomination. Blacks will be enraged, they’ll either stay home or vote Repub just to spite her.**

I really think this might happen. But it will happen much sooner when they start pulling out dirt on Obama non-stop. And I don’t think the blacks will object.

Obama is ready to wow us and make us want to vote for him.

He sure is wowing those kids in Madison. That crowd is electrified. All with no substance but change. Scary to watch it unfold.

This is getting far too routine, Maryland called for Obama and McCain

McCain wins another hardline leftist state. Go figure.

Oh yeah, just because the Presidential looks grim is no reason not to vote. You got all sort of state and local races where you can have a significant impact. I have voted in every election since I turned 18.

Get out and vote. Because with Dumb Socialist Obama or Corrupt Socialist Clinton, we need all the Conservatives in office all over the board to limit the damage. Localities and States still have a more direct significant effect on your life then National politics. Doesn’t seem that way but it is true

there are some 9 months to campaign, lots can change in that time.

Yuppers...Lots IS gonna change!

FWIW - NM, Here are a few of my predictions:

One of the candidates will become ill or incapacitated and be unable to finish the campaign.

OBL and other top AQ will be found and killed or confirmed dead from previous attacks.

Dirt will be flying EVERYWHERE...i.e the missing files, etctera.

There will be a "serious" terror incident in Europe.

A dark horse candidate will emerge but not generate enough support to anything other than try for a VP spot.

Just a few to start.

A Note To ALL:

OBAMA’s victories today are GOOD for us, and our chances come November.

NO Dem Candidate can win now without the Super-Delegates, and they will be going to the HIGHEST BIDDER, live on national TV for all to see at the convention.

The sheeple are going to get to witness those Democrat Hero’s they’ve been told so much about pimping (Can I say that now??) themselves and thier vote out for the highest dollar, shattering the illusions of so many people, especially the uber-naive “progressives”...

Hell..... even the “Working Man’s Hero”, John Edwards is already shopping for the best deal he can get!

If you read any of the “Progressive” blogs, you can already see this realization sinking in.

They have a racist, sexist, politicly-correct trainwreck on thier hands, and they can do NOTHING to stop it!

Excitement for Obama is just like it was for Jummy Carter.

You might call it Obamacide!

SuperConservatives get ready to run in 2012!

LOL!

Did you just hear Obama refer to VP Cheney as his cousin? What's up with that? I thought I read something recently that said Cheney and Obama were distantly related...?

Another non-substance "visionary" speech by St. Obama...

Ladies and Gentlemen...I am listening to Senator Obama and the next President of the United States of America.

Live with that for the next 8 years. Stay home and teach our stupid party a real lesson. That will make you feel better...stand on your principles!

This is the race that the MSM wanted. Liberal against RINO. NO Conservatives need apply!

“Queeg won WA.”

I don’t believe it; they actually got the last 13% of the votes counted.

And, call me suspicious, but since at the last count, Huckabee was only about 200 points behind, they didn’t want to count the votes before today’s primaries, in case it was Huckabee, because THREE wins out of THREE would have given Huckabee MORE momentum.

I agree. Can’t blame you one bit. I would rather have Obama who doesn’t have a clue about using the power of the Presidency than Hillary who knows exactly how to utilize that power for her selfish ends. It is no secret that the Clintons who had never even owned a home prior to Bill becoming President both ended up as multi-millionaires in only eight short years.
