McCain Picking Up Key Endorsements in FL

[xrayzebra]

Well with the Florida deligate count, it puts McCain about 23
deligates ahead of Romney. Super Tuesday will tell the tale.
There is a long way to go to get the magic number. The
early vote in Florida might have put McCain in the winning
column and before he made such a bad mistake as claiming
Romney wanted the set timetables for withdrawal from Iraq,
which he didn't do. And McCain was called on it time after
time. And McCain wouldn't back off his statements. Bad
move on his part. I think.

I wouldn't count Billary out yet either. Those Clintons will
call every card in that is owed them. And Obama better
not have any skeltons in the closet, cause old Billary/Bill
have their crew out checking and re-checking his whole life.
Even old what's his face, from Hustler more than likely is
checking his sex life from A to Z, don't you know.
It is going to get really, really down and dirty, both sides,
from here on out. Hang on, it is going to be better than
the roller-coaster at Fiesta Texas.

It doesn't matter what McCain did BEFORE the results came in in Fl. - he is now the front-runner, and the media is going to treat him that way. Romney has a SERIOUS uphill battle from here. It think some conservative Republicans underestimate the Mormon factor with evangelicals. They see it as, basically, a cult. It is having an effect.

Oh, you every so right. MSM love McCain right now. But
wont in the general election.

I am no so sure about your observation on the Mormon
factor though. Yes it will affect some, but I don't think
that many.

So Romney doesn't win in Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, and any other state that ranks below 45 out of 50 in various social metrics.

Romney can stay very much alive after Super Tuesday, especially with California not being a winner take all state. Plus we'll have to see how McCain handles success. When he seems to think he can speak his mind he usually manages to hurt himself with the base.

What little mind he has left. You have to wonder about
him sometime.

I was going to make a comment but I won't...

If Hillary is the alternative, McCain gets my vote.

I agree. If Richardson could have pulled it off, he would be the only democrat I would consider over the possible republican winner. For me, it doesn't matter. I prefer Romney, but I will vote for any of the remaining republicans over the winning democrap.

I disagree. It was the hispanic vote that put McCain over the top. Florida probably has more hispanic voters than most other states, at least legal ones.

Maybe I'm wrong there... I have to rethink that...

In a state like mine, they make it easy for illegals to vote, and never verify. By doing to they encourage illegal votes...

Another curious thing. Didn't Thompson drop out too late for the people who voted early to reconsider? Now with Giuliani out, who will his supporters vote for? Most people don't blindly follow the endorsed...

I believe most all the Thompson supporters will vote for Romney. Harder to tell with the Giuloani supporters, but in my view, the things that made him viable will give about 2/3rds of his voters to Romney.

I still see Romney as easily pulling this one off. I wish Huckabee would drop out now as I think Romney will get most his supporters as well.

Republicans traditionally vote conservative. Romney is the most conservative on the most important issues today. McCain is the only viable liberal left. Romney is sharing his right-sidedness with Huckabee.

Tell me I'm wrong that the republicans would easily pick Romney over McCain if it were only the two of them.

Damn... I really want runoff elections...
