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%
If she loses, it will be a
big blow to his ego, IMO, not
to mention the bruises he’ll
get from her.
It’s a paradox. He’s such a narcissist,
that I think if she does win, he’ll
resent her achieving equal status
with him.
Either way, because of his malignant,
sociopathic personality, I think he’s
gonna be one miserable dude for a long
time.
Huck sounds very very down and out
Yes, he does. No uplifting talk from Huck. He’s either very tired, or he has given up.
Bingo! See my Tag Line and page.
It’s funny watching these MSNBC guys having orgasms over Obama’s speech (Olberman/Matthews).
Matthews lying about Virginia republicans “owning the state”. We’ve never owned the state. For a couple of years the pendulum swung in our direction. But before Allen’s one term we had a democratic senator, and we are on our 2nd democratic governor, after two republicans, after two democrats.
Obama will make Carter look like George Washington. If we have a country in 2012, then I think conservativism may have a shot.
Exit polls.
Country Club Repubs have run a losing campaign every few terms as to keep them humble: Ford, Dole, McCain. Boring, Boring Boring
He’s served his purpose very well and is outliving his usefulness. Now McCain wants him out of the way so there is only one boring, liberal RINO white guy on the stage.
“RICHMOND, VA. — All day, Mike Huckabee’s campaign has been trying to learn about how the final 13 percent of the votes in the Washington state Republican caucuses would be counted. As of this afternoon, only 87 percent of the votes have been counted and CBS News has deemed the state too close to call.”

“I think it literally took away from our momentum…Going to the primaries here, EVERTHING IS ABOUT MOMENTUM (emphasis mine), so we are very disturbed by it.”
excerpt http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2008/02/10/politics/fromtheroad/entry3813882.shtml
So you see, it is about MOMENTUM. THAT is why McCain has done as well as he has. The early states, where Independents and Dems could vote, gave McCain MOMENTUM.
Washington State RINOs wanted to make sure that Huckabee only won TWO out of THREE states, rather than THREE out of THREE, because they knew that it would give Huckabee MOMENTUM.
Hope that helps.
He's in Arkansas. If he exited the race tomorrow he wouldn't have to go anywhere. I'm guessing he will follow Mitt's lead and step aside in the next day or two. He's made his point: McCain's not conservative enough.
So you see, it's all about spin.
Hope that helps.
Those 69 Red State Democrats who have been voting against the Pelosie Reid agenda are not suddenly going to be persuaded to vote for Obama’s radically Leftist agenda. Clinton Inc would buy them or intimidate them into towing the Clinton line.
So here is the choice. Obama-harder to beat in the election, easier to beat afterward. Clintons. Easier to beat in the election much tougher to beat legislatively.
Clinton said she would “sweep” across Texas. Has she ever been here? It takes more than a sweep just to get from El Paso to the next town, much less across all of Texas to get to San Antonio. This is not some little dinky state in the northeast, where an hour’s drive will get you to the border.
She’s going to need cowboy boots to get from where she is to another Texas city and I’m not sure the cattle will let her go anywhere; after all, our cattle have class.
Don't forget the 2010 mid Term Congressional elections
ROFLLLLLLLLL!
Sorry I bested you AGAIN. Face it, you are no match for me.
‘nite
Huck IS very very down and out.
