"Outspended"?

Listen, whilst you was going to Europe for holidays...
and to Sodoment with your boyfriends...
I was workin' in the cane fields.
"I've planted it, raised it, cutted it, and drieded it..."
As God is my witness.
Did I happen to mention I used to be a preacher?

“I am sorry the voters in Iowa are nuts......Huckabee give me a break!”

The idea that he beats out Thompson boggles the mind.

In other words, it ain't over until the fat lady sings.

The Huckster will be yesterday's news next Tuesday.

” A Republican nominee from Hope, Arkansas with a running mate from Tennessee would really psyche out the Democrats.”

Many of those Iowa Republicans are more conservative by party standards.

Then how did Huckabee win the caucus?

Well if Romney gets defeated in NH , it might end up being a Fred vs. Huckster race .

SC is going to be one heck of a battle , as I don’t think Romney will go quietly .

Good — the dems are close. Hopefully, this will force some independents to cross over to the dems and take aways votes from McCain.

The group prayed for Huckabee's victory as well as some of his more conservative views — including an end to abortion and homosexuality.

Why is the Republican precinct numbers stuck at 41% and the Dems are almost completely reporting? And I thought that the Dems had a policy that anyone who voted for a candidate that came in below 15% would have to vote again for someone that came in above 15%? How can they call that one?

War hero and U.S. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., has spent most of the last several months ignoring Iowa and gearing up instead for next week’s first-in-the-nation New Hampshire primary. Yet, while the two front-runners sling mud at each other, McCain has seen a rise in his Iowa poll numbers in recent days. While he spent today in New Hampshire, he campaigned in Iowa Wednesday. A strong third-place finish in Iowa could propel McCain into a strong contender position against the front-runners in New Hampshire.

For Fred Thomspon, the former Tennessee senator and actor, a strong performance could knock some life back into a flagging campaign that has never met the early expectations surrounding the buzz of his possible candidacy. Finishing in the bottom of the Iowa heap, some say, might mean an early exit for the “Law and Order” star.


Just read those two paragraphs and tell me whether the media aren’t absolutely desperate to pump up McCain and depress Fred with every word they speak.

The evangelicals in Iowa are, by and large, morons. They thought Pat Robertson would make a good president a few years ago. What is wrong with these people? Huckabee will NEVER get my vote and would NEVER win a general election.
