Forgot to add THIS in the box! NY Slimes misses by a mile again!

How rumors start

The New York Post’s Page Six gossip column failed to check its facts when it wrote last week about U.S. Senate candidate Jim Neal, who used to live in New York.

The column said that former North Carolina Sen. Jesse Helms “will be spinning in his grave” if Neal, who is gay, wins the Democratic nomination and then defeats Republican U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Dole this fall.

Helms is alive.

Mitt Romney - 15 percent Fred Thompson - 11 percent

Ugh.

My first and second choices ain't doin' so well. And If SC doesn't go for Fred, I fear he's done for.

This poll was taken Wednesday before Thompsons trouncing of the weasels on stage with him at the debate.

The enemedias last ditch effort to derail Fred.

OK - now they’ve hit my state.

Once again - nobody I talk to has McCain as first choice. Mostly Fred but then a sprinkling of the others. McCain is the 2nd or 3rd choice.

I just saw on TV this morning that McCain has sent out negative flyers in N.C. accusing Romney of not supporting Bush’s tax cuts soon enough. Actually it was McCain, himself, who repeatedly did not support the tax cuts.

McCain must be stopped and Romney needs every vote he can get in Michigan to do that tomorrow.

Then South Carolina GOP voters can give Fred a chance to be the candidate of the south by voting for him on Saturday.

Otherwise Huck is well positioned to win it all down south.

McCain is picking up steam in the big states.

I dare say McCain will probably win California. Rudy can’t spend any resources to stop him.

The only hope we have to stop him in New York and New Jersey would be to vote Giuliani if we live there.

Its stop McCain every state every where by tactical voting for the candidate in the strongest position to defeat McCain.

If Fred can break through in SC, then maybe he has a shot in Florida, otherwise it may be Romney or Rudy to stop McCain.

If Huckabee is riding shotgun for McCain, which Rush said on the radio last week, its pretty bleak if Fred can’t win.

My theory is that Thompson, who supported McCain-Feingold, is also a McCain outrider.

If that’s the case, then Mitt Romney ends up being the alternative to McCain.

I hope Romney stays in until this mess can be sorted out and we can figure out who’s real and who’s not.

I’m uncommitted at this point, but urging everyone to mobililize tactical voting to prevent McCain from winning states and getting annointed as the “front-runner” by the MSM.

I dunno, I live right in the middle of NC, and I'm not seeing it. Of course, I'm not seeing a whole lot of activity, period.

I've seen 2 signs. One for Ron Paul (the paulistas are like roaches!!) and a Guliani '08 Bumper sticker. That's it. The few people that I've talked to about politics have expounded on how they don't like *anyone*, period. I'd say that doesn't bode well for anyone perceived as a "Washington Insider" (McCain, Clinton, Edwards, etc) but that's just my own 2 bit opinion.

Not much for support on the (D) side, either, although I'll admit that I don't pay a whole lot of attention to them.
