That may be true, but the message Mitt needs to take away from this is that you can't win in a 7-man race with all 6 other candidates hating you. If every state received a number of delegates proportionate to the number of electorates in the general, and the system simply allocated delegates...

The most interesting thing would be if Romney decided to stroke Huck's ego a bit and enter negotiations to run as Huck's VP if he throws his support that way. The only reason Huck is trailing Mac is because Mitt commanded a ton of the conservative vote. Even with Mitt's support I'm not...

Ditto. We in Utah live in what is usually considered a "dove white" society, but the only racists that I know actually moved here from Arkansas and Georgia. I think the "Mormons are racist against blacks" argument was destroyed yesterday by the fact that Obama beat Hillary here by a...

Yep, I stand corrected. All of Mac's supporters went to Huck and he ended up edging Romney out for the win. Should stand as a notice to Mitt. With the way that the GOP primary system is setup, you can't have all the candidates hating you and still expect to win. The other candidates can...

You're right on both points. Bad choice of words, and I also should've been more educated on the Maine process. It appears that the two sources I mainly use for primary election structure didn't do a very good job of representing the strange format in Maine. In any case, Maine results are...

Looks as though Mitt is going to lock in the 18 AL delegates from West Virginia. They haven't quite finished yet, but he has a commanding lead at 44%. Ron Paul was the only one knocked out after the first round with less than 10%. It's only 18 delegates and the fact that Mac didn't even...

You guys make a legitimate point, but jumping in to fill an empty slot here and there will not win a nomination or even put him in the top 2. I realize that the counts on this thread include unbound delegates, but it reflects their most likely affiliation is it stands right now. It would...

True

I wasn't trying to be harsh about it. I was juts pointing out that this thread wasn't intended to contain debate on voter fraud and other such theories. If you want to rip on any particular candidate there are countless threads on which to do so.

Yes, but pretty much any politician coulda made that happen during Bills terms. That's one of the only times in history when the Fed was worried about where they could possibly put the extra money that was being generated.

On the topic of impeachment though... It really says something about our voters when many of them are willing to vote for Hillary simply to get the only elected and impeached president back.

That's kinda what I was getting at. Sure I don't like many things Bush has done, but he only does what congress gives him power to do. Congress has done nothing to "fix" things, so impeachment would be pretty extreme. Fact is that most of congress still supports staying in Iraq. Most of...

Hey, we agree for once. :D

I also don't support Hillary but it has nothing to do with her sex or voice. She has one really big problem. Bill was intelligent and somewhat economically savvy as far as trying to balance a budget. There was a certain element of luck to his term in office though. He was fortunate enough...

I'd like to hear peoples' argument for impeachment. Remember that DEMs have the majority in congress right now. If they really thought there were grounds for impeachment, they would probably be pushing for it.

Woooowwwww!!!!! Who'da thunk it?!?!? Highlight of the game for the Pats was Moss touchdown reception followed by his parting the red sea routine. I was thinking, "Dude, the game is 3/4 over and that is only your 3rd catch. Get back on the sideline and get your head right before you...

Well, Mitt seems to have a knack for picking up the states with unbound delegates. He won Maine in a landslide, which puts the delegate count as follows: Mac -- 97 Mitt -- 92 Huck -- 29 Paul -- 6 My most recent estimates for Super Tuesday have Mac coming out in the lead with about 600...

The DEM debate was a complete snoozer. Looked a lot like the Florida debate on the GOP side. Both candidates becoming very civil and neither really going on the offensive. Looked and sounded more like the academy awards than a presidential debate. The candidates would exchange compliments...

Achilles, I owe you an apology. I missed the context of your original statement. I re-read this and realized your point regarding RP's statements about the FED, and what you were trying to get at. Points well taken.

Hydro, I'm not at all amazed with your arguments, many of them are logical and obviously correct. Many also have nothing to do with the points I was making though you seem intent on assigning opinions to me. I am however amazed at your animus. You come across as a very hateful person who...
