GO NEWT!
Ron Paul speaking live on FoxNews in Fargo. Wood chipper on standby.
Voter turn out very low at my precinct in NE Ohio. Voted G and was a toss up between G & S. Will pull the GOP lever in Nov no matter how distasteful. Me must get rid of the filth in the white house
Ugh. What if we had an election and no one came?
Mark Levin said it will be a while before Ohio results are known. He said Ed Rollins said the millions of dollars may have an affect because many people in Ohio do not know Santorum. Romney has defined every one of his opponents as a big govt. liberal insider. Levin said it is interesting that all the insiders are endorsing ROMNEY!! But Romney has done something else...He has ticked off a bunch of people who know who Santorum and Gingrich are and they are not going to accept the trashing going on. Levin is saying Romney is counting on the fact that people will have nowhere else to go and will vote for him in the end. Levin said many are very angry right now. Levin said Fred Thompson despises Romney. (He has not said it to Levin but Levin can tell.) Giuliani despises him too. So...you cannot lock up the nomination by trashing and burning.
One of the two conservatives needs to get out and NOW. I don’t care if it’s Newt or Rick. We simply MUST have a candidate in November or else face then the same sickening conundrum the Rs in Virgina faced today.
Tuesday 6 March 2012: 46 of 49 of Virginia’s delegates to the Republican National Convention are pledged to presidential contenders in today’s Virginia Presidential Primary.
33 district delegates are to be bound to presidential contenders based on the primary results in each of the 11 congressional districts: each congressional district is assigned 3 National Convention delegates and the presidential contender receiving the greatest number of votes in that district will receive all 3 of that district’s National Convention delegates.
13 at-large delegates (10 base at-large delegates plus 3 bonus delegates) are to be bound to presidential contenders based on the primary results statewide. Compute percentages to 3 decimal places, that is, 50.000%. The delegates are allocated to the presidential contenders as follows:
If a candidate receives 50.001% or more of the vote, that candidate is allocated all 13 at-large delegates.
The infestation doesn't end until you get south of the Rappahannock River. That is where normal America starts.
Ron Paul is pissing me off speaking all the while the returns are coming in and I’m sitting here biting nails. Why couldn’t he wait instead of wasting time?
And almost half of NJ is south of the Mason and Dixon line. Furthermore, Kansas was a Union state in the Civil War.
“Glad CainConservative is gone”
If there ever was a Troll on here it was him. Would not debate the Issue. Could not reason with him.
Glad to see him silenced for now. Trust me he will be back under another ID.
CainConservative had an interesting history. He was 100% for Cain and dumped on everyone. Then he was (for a short time) 100% for Newt and dumped on everyone. Then he was for Santorum and did the same.
Pathetically low turnout in my precinct. Friend had no waiting at 7am and at 10am when I went the place was empty. Both are VERY unusual.
If you don’ Fox News, make the same choice I did....don’t watch them.
Me too. But McDonnell was among those who shut down Cucinelli's attempts at legislation to allow all candidates on the ballot.
Then he endorses Mittens.
I'd not vote for this lame duck Governor again for anything!
Yeah? Well let me tell you something....
I got nothing.
Looks like Newt takes about 9% in VT. Half of that is probably me and my family.
Well, you won’t get an argument from me. I’m now a Southerner by choice and I can proudly state, “that the South has been saving the Union from the democrats for decades.” We’re solid red down here.
In fact, the first primary ought to be held in Mississippi where we atually have a Republicans from all walks of life, including rich, poor, college students, working men and women, military and black, yes black.
I have voted in every Presidential election since 1992. For the first time this evening, I’m giving serious and weighty consideration to the grim prospect of leaving the President/Vice President entry on my November ballot blank...
We have all been rather edgy lately, so much at stake! Just keep the faith, play fair, and we will all eventually come together.
And when we do, there will a better day ahead. You are a great FReeper who is loyal to your creed! I would not expect anything less from you!
