Fox got what they wanted – McCain won Florida and if they have their way they will report that this is now a one man race. They are discounting all other candidates completely. I was absolutely disgusted at Geraldo Rivera report this morning – could he have kissed McCain’s pasty white butt any more passionately>

Remember in future elections, regardless if McCain ’sneaks’ in,,,,,of tricks by Huckleberry…..

Its clear he’s staying in to take vote from Mitt and help McCain……..so remember.

Again, some of you like him. I think he’s likeable and really only disagree with him regarding tax record in Ark.

However, this is why I don’t like him. If you have been following, I think it was the second debate leading to NH, there was this love-fest, tag-team Huck/McCain did not Mitt. From then on, even when they were two top guys in SC, they continue to run like a team. My personal opinion Huck is angling for MAC’s VP slot. I also personally believe, based on earlier lovefest, they have some sort of ‘wink’ situation, which is why Huck stays in to take more conservative votes from Mitt.

If you look at all the previous primaries, McCain has yet to win more than 36% of Republicans and lower still 26% of conservatives. His plan, which has worked so far, is count on Independents/DEMs for votes and the various conservatives split the conservative vote. Thats frustrating, because Republicans are not being able to pick the nominee (even in closed FL primary, 11% said they were Independents who registered Republican just to vote in primary).

Fred- after his line in the sand, SC, did honorable thing and got out. I believe the only reason Rudy got out was so he did not hurt McCain (like Huck is to Romney)….hence Rudy’s endorsement of McCain.

So in my mind, Huck is still playing not to win, but the anti-Mitt vote allowing McCain to win.

Should that all play out, I hope conservative don’t forget that tactic in future elections, I know I won’t.

Notice in this article, like previous (and debates), Huck critical of Mitt, but no word on McCain?? If you were running to win, won’t you take on the ‘frontrunner’????

America cannot afford to have another Pressident who cannot get his facts straight and lie. Mc Cain either lied or had a senile memory lapse about Romney. He is simply too old and shabby.

Wake up America. Vote for Mitt.

The debate in calif was as phony as it can get…The moderator almost completley ignored ron and huk, but at the beginning said that everyone would just about have the same time..Who was he talking to…Once again McCain avoided question by going off track and saying how his military experience dominated all the questions..What a waste and the media lets it go on to make a sensational news item for next days paper. How about letting ordinary Americans run the debate not only will they do a job buy wont let a question go by without a straight answer…Very disappointed by the media and money controlling out comes.

What an ugly turn of events. I’m truly sickened by it. It appears that McCain is “buying” all of his votes from the endorsements of other establishment insiders. If the current track continues, it will be a pathetic race between Clinton and McCain: two establishment candidates. BOTH represent stereotypical career politicians. BOTH represent everything that’s wrong with Washington. So much for all the “change” talk!

WAKE UP PEOPLE! There’s still time! If you’re Democrat, vote for Obama. If you’re Republican, vote for Romney. Now that would be a great debate and a great race!

We really needed a better selection of Candidates for Republicans voters. It’s not right that we have to give up our traditional Conservative beliefs in order to pull the swings voters and beat the Democratic Nominee. McCain may not flip flop, but his platform contradicts the issues. He is strong on defense and weak on immigration/border control. He is strong on cutting spending but wants to increase taxes to supplement the lose from that. That covers fiscal and defense issues.

Carl Cameron is a McCain lackey who is so inept it is an embarrassment to Fox News to even have him on the air. Learn how to be a journalist or get off the air you windbag! Every segment has your pathetic angle already baked in. As if anyone with a brain cares what you think.

In a blog post, Josh Trevino has outlined the parameters of “Romney’s Florida win.” Trevino points out that according to CNN’s exit poll numbers:
Romney won pro-lifers.
Romney won the mainstream religious. (Huckabee won the very religious–less than one-fifth of the pool.)
Romney won the Protestants.
Romney tied Huckabee with Evangelicals.
Romney won the pro-GWB voters.
Romney is the primary second choice of Giuliani voters, Thompson voters . . . and McCain voters.
Romney won the immigration hard-liners.
Romney won the upper-middle class, earning between $100,000 and $200,000 annually.
Romney won the terrorism-oriented voters.
Romney won the self-identified conservatives and the self-identified very conservative.
Romney won the values-oriented voters.
Romney won the white voters.
Romney won the tax-cutting voters.
In short, Mitt Romney won the Republican Party’s idea of itself — and that, too, is a big deal. If you’re white, Protestant, anti-abortion, go to church on Sundays, think well of the President, want lower taxes, hate terrorists, make a good living, want to do something about immigration, and live in Florida, chances are you voted Romney. The question before Florida was whether McCain could win a closed Republican race, and now we know he can. The question now is whether he can win conservatives — and in Florida, he did not.
