Romney ahead in Montana Caucus

[tanaka]

McAmnesty, Paul and Huckabust cut a backroom deal so there is no hope for Romney, unless he wins >50%

[icwhatudo]

Winner take all? Proportional? Revote if no 50%??? Can Huck give his to McCain???

DETAILS! DETAILS! DETAILS!

Please!!! :)

[Baladas]

Good news - one of my best friends is from Montana and he’s for Romney - some Mormons in the state, but he’s not one.

[popdonnelly]

“Real conservatives” deeply saddened.

[Ukiapah Heep]

Did Kaczynski endorse RuPaul?

[Delacon]

 

 

 

 

[cotton1706]

Well, we have to do the best we can, unfortunately.

[Clintonfatigued]

Montana ping

[smoothsailing]

Agreed. West Virginia exposed the MCCain-Huckebee strategy beyond all doubt.

[Truthsearcher]

Montana is winner take all and you do not have to get over 50%.

[mcjordansc]

If this is a causus and a candidate has to have more than 50% to win, then a deal will be cut. McCain will most likely win this one. Perfectly legit to make the deal. This has been done in Iowa for years (until the GOP wimped out and got rid of the 15% threshold rule).

[ruination]

And there are 25 delegates for MT.

[AmericanInTokyo]

My guess is that Romney ends up kicking McCain’s rear today.

[bill1952]

but this vote means little since it is not binding, correct?

[Parley Baer]

I hope you are right. Otherwise there will be another deal made amongst the tag team.

[txhurl]

Excellent! Although I’m sure McScampaign has a fix worked up for Montana regardless.

[Reagan79]

Wooo Hooo . . . this is the big win we were waiting for.

[Rome2000]

Wooo Hooo . . . this is the big win we were waiting for.

Are you series?

[Parley Baer]

Go Mitt.

[Red Steel]

Only West Virginia had the runoff for the majority, plurality wins everywhere else.

[sodpoodle]

****If this is a caucus and a candidate has to have more than 50% to win, then a deal will be cut.***

Like the deal MCain & Huckabee just pulled in West Va.!!!!

I’m going to sleep - have not enough medication for this *McCain Landslide* cr*p from the media.

McCain has 102 delegates, Mitt has 93, H’bee 79 & uncommitted 23. How the h*ll is that a landslide?????

[Reagan79]

No, I’ll pass on Mitt Dukakis

[mcjordansc]

Only West Virginia had the runoff for the majority, plurality wins everywhere else.

Well, if that is the case, then a deal will not be cut.

[TalBlack]

Just this moment got back from voteing in NY. The sight of that pathetic line of names of Republican candidates is a sadder and more frightening thing than I ever thought I would live to see.

God help us.

[sodpoodle]

****another deal made amongst the tag team****

SHAG team - Austin Powers!!!

A McCain/Huckabee ticket will be depraved, disgusting and delusional.

[Blue Turtle]

GO MITT! Screw the MSM!!

[NYC Republican]

My guess is that Romney gets crushed, almost across the board. Game set match, McCain will get destroyed in the general election

[lone star annie]

“McScampaign”

Best name yet and oh so true!!!

Need a new name for Huckleberry.

How about Suckabee?

[sofaman]

Schmuckabee?

[chiller]

What’s to keep McCain from cutting a deal regardless of a majority requirement? Can’t they change once committed as soon as they see the writing on the wall?

[Baladas]

Mught as well vote...........NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[lone star annie]

“Schmuckabee”

Hey there were only like 1200 who voted in West Virginia. What a joke.

[txhurl]

Oh, I have a fantastic one but not willing to get banned over it.

[Moral Hazard]

Romney supporters are going to feel a lot better about McCain getting the 235 delegates from winner-take-all states New York, New Jersey, Arizona and Connecticut if Romney ends up getting 173 delegates from winner-take-all states Delaware, Missouri, Montana, North Dakota and Utah.

[Moral Hazard]

“Hey there were only like 1200 who voted in West Virginia. What a joke.”

I believe those were delegates to a state convention.

[Ingtar]

At the moment Romney’s in third in Missouri.

[Reaganwuzthebest]

Recent exit polling in Arizona has it tied 36% to 36% Romney/mccain. How sweet it would be to see queeg lose his own state.

[psjones]

Sad when it’s backroom deals that could win this stuff and not really what the people for.

[Moral Hazard]

“At the moment Romney’s in third in Missouri.”

Where are you getting that info?

[Ingtar]

It changed ... I’m guessing a mischievous glitch on the site. I’m reading stuff in between taking turns getting water out of my living room.

[AmericanMade1776]

Thank you Montana

[Ingtar]

Considering it had Paul first and then McCain, Romney, I should have been suspicious.

[Hugin]

Romney is proving his ability to unite Republicans. Unfortunately, he seems to unite them against himself.

[sodpoodle]

We don’t need a THIRD PARTY we already have TWO third rate parties.

We need a FIRST CLASS PARTY - let’s go for broke & start a

FREEDOM FIRST PARTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Rumierules]

Can Romney really win Minnesota?
