It’s easier to call the race for the Republicans.

They do not have to meet a 15% threshold.

The Dems have to get 15% or caucus for another candidate.

Obama wins it. Just now per Fox news.

As I see it, Huck won in the rural areas that have already reported, but the bigger numbers have yet to come in....am I right?

I don’t know....my precincts are on the outskirts of Cedar Rapids...somewhat rural

I am sitting at my caucus right now.

According to several posters, y'all are a bunch of dopes.

Your reaction, please.

McCain benefits from good press, he just said a few months ago that they are his base, and are 99% fair in their reporting.

Obviously he would govern for the NY press in the WH.

I agree with good times coinciding with ‘likability’ having a greater influence. But these are serious times (we’re at war) and we cannot have a candidate so naive on foreign policy (Gitmo, Bhutto, NIE, etc. - Secretary Rice took him to task on all of this). The terrorists are watching.

Hillary can smash him like a little bug.

Yeah, but she may not get the chance.

Go, Obama, Go!

“Rollins is a nasty piece of work...does he reflect the inner Huck I wonder?”

If you can’t stand the heat....as they say.
Hey..politics is a nasty nasty business. You had better have the meanest SOB in your corner if you want to be successful in this game. If you don’t think the Hildabeast is gonna play patty cake in the general you’re just kidding yourself.
That being said. I’m no Huckabee supporter. I’m a Fred guy. But whoever our nominee is, we had better damn well have an SOB like Rollins on board, if we want to beat the DemonRats.

As the matter of fact, I’m having a pleasant conversation with (at least) two Thompson supporters on this thread. But the haters don’t understand when Republicans get along with each other; they are here to divide us.

Hildabeast isn’t going to be happy coming in third. Some of hers staffers would be well advised to sleep with one eye open.
People have committed Arkancide for less.

Brit Hume is desperate to discount the real conservative.

Q. Why are the democrats reporting there precincts at twice the speed of the Republicans?

A. Because they already had the results before people showed up to vote.
