Yes, I meant overall. Obvious to most thinking people, since that’s how many it takes to be the official nominee. Not obvious to cheaters, apparently.
I’m sitting here thinking about how amazingly rude and dishonest people have been towards Huckabee, and I thought I would mention something funny. Over at rushlimbaugh.com he posted a statement about how he doesn’t call Obama “Hussein” (his legal name) but he does call him liberal. Then on the same page he calls Huckabee “Huckster.” That’s my problem with civility rules. They never seem to apply evenly. I suppose that will never change. But election rules are another matter. I will fight to the grave for those to apply evenly. Ohio, Texas, Nebraska, and others have not even voted yet. Until one candidate has 1191 delegates, those voters still have a choice. Those are the rules and cheaters just have to be forced to play by them.
Republicans(1,191 needed to win nomination)
Candidates number of delegates
John McCain 1014
Mike Huckabee 257
Mike isn’t even in the ball park with the delegates left to get. Mike won’t get half of the needed delegates to win. The rules are who ever gets 1,191 gets the nomination. There is no need to keep dragging this out.
