You're very welcome.

You can't be cantankerous. That's my job. ;-)

I agree with your analysis of the political situation, but I don't think that any of the still-standing candidates will drop out just yet, regardless who should [coughPaulcough].

If Mitt Romney gets the GOP nomination then I’ll be voting for Roseanne Barr in protest. The GOP does not have a “right” to my vote and if they nominate Mittens then they have not earned my vote.

Well said.

Romney NOT a viable candidate. I believe he is now 1-17 in races outside of his home turf...plus in "away" caucuses, he is now (w/out double-checking my stats)...something like 5-16.

So take away his home turf, and he is something like 6-33.

Romney's a loser...I thought GOP voters weren't into casting their votes for a loser...for a non-viable candidate...for a candidate who will lose anyway...Isn't that called "Wasted Vote Syndrome"...

So there's actually some GOP voters who will sear their conscience and waste a vote in the process -- only then to have to revisit that conscience when Romney loses, anyway!

Ah. The sheer glory of compromise and capitulation!

They are a deceptive, dangerous and cruel cult that is very near to taking over a SECOND THIRD of our national government.

Interesting, I hadn't thought of that. Both Senate Majority Leader Reid and leading Presidential candidate, Mitt Romney (members of the two opposite parties), are Temple Mormons aren't they? Reid and Romney are both, members of the roughly 15% of the Mormon elite aren't they.

You just creeped me out much more than I was before.
