Huckabee Wins Again

Because McCain gave him his delegates.



He still doesn't stand a chance. He's just screwing his opponents, Romney in particular, over something awful. And for what? Just to have the veep candidacy.



Pretty bad, pretty bad.

Lol. You mean, you still have hope for the big Theocrat to become elected?

It looks like Huck has some real support from the deep south who applauded torture.

NOT.

I always root for the underdogs. Besides, he's the only one that I can vote for.

applauded torture?

Why?

Not many surprises overall.  Looks like if they all stay in at this point, it will go to the convention.  McCain will probably get it, but not before some horse trading.

KFC, what SanChonino said is correct. If you would just go and read the press release about WV and not just the bloody headline you would see that Romney one the first round but then McCain's camp told their voters to vote for Huckaphony. You took it as something significant hook line and sinker but it wasn't.

Your candidate sold his soul to crooked politics and you still love him for it. I guess you'll be happy with him being veep on the ticket?

Please do your homework on your candidate.

Romney spent millions of dollars on attack ads and ran the ugliest campaign, so its funny to watch a his supporters feign outrage. One thing is certain... talk shows and far right internet blogs do not decide elections. Romney is out.

Anthony, I don't know if you were responding to me but I'll take it as if you were. First of all I am not a supporter of Romney. Romney wasn't my first, second, or even third choice. I know you have reserve against Romney but still wait for a more in depth analysis of your dislike. All that I have seen is grotesque generalities that ALL of the candidates are guilty of.

You've made it clear that McCain has your vote and is your kool-aid of choice. That's fine. You have that right.

Can you at least give me 5 substantial reasons I should vote for McCain that are post 1980's?

1. Hillary
2. Hillary
3. Hillary
4. Hillary
5. Hillary.

I said substantial not SCARY! hehe

but I digress...

It might be argued that she is more conservative then he.

I think Ann Coulter is making that very case?

Remember Ghostbusters? WHen they were confronting Goza? Bill Murray said " I thought he was a man?" And Harold Ramis said "Goza is whatever it wants to be."

Goza. If you think "she" is conservative, prepare to be turned into a dog!

Careful now. I didn't lump her with being a conservative as that is oil and water. I said that it could be argued that she is more conservative than McCain. Meaning more to the right on the left hand side.

Besides, he's the only one that I can vote for. Why?I'm curious as well.

For one thing he's really the ONLY Republican staying true to the GOP. McCain is vey liberal and I see him as more of a Dem than a Repub .....some of the reasons I can ONLY vote for Huck? Ok here's a few:

Abortion: He's the only one that has been brave enough to come out and say abortion is just plain wrong. He seems to me to be the only one that understands how important this issue is. He "gets it." He sees the slaughter of these innocent babies safe in their mother's womb as barbaric. So do I.

Homosexual Special Rights & Marriage: He's against homosexual marriage and the special rights of the Homosexuals. Romney, on the other hand had his hands full in MA pushing funding for the pro-homo indoctrination of school age children, homosexual Boy Scout Leaders, and homosexuals serving openly in the military. Not sure where McCain is but he did vote against the Federal Marriage Amendment.

Taxes-Huckabee is fiscally conservative cutting taxes many, many times leaving Arkansas with a surplus. I lived in Maine and I heard the stories coming out of MA on Romney's tax and spend plans. He doesn't believe in cutting anything. He has a socialist agenda just like Hillary. He didn't call his millions of dollars tax hike a tax by the way.....he called them fees and left the state in chaos. I'm actually stunned his own state voted him in. Everyone I knew hated his ideas. Check out his healthcare plan.

Gun Control-Huck is pro second amendment. He's a staunch supporter of our rights on this issue. Romney is not. In fact, he signed some of the strictest gun controls in the country. I'm not sure about McCain here. He seems to have a mixed bag from what I've read.

Federal Marriage Amendment (FMA)-Huck strongly supports marriage between one man and one woman. So do I. McCain fought hard against it. Romney has said he supports traditional marriage but he's done some funky things in office I'm not so sure he's quite there. In other words, his talk doesn't match his walk. So really not quite sure where he stands.

Besides all this....I just like him. Do I think he's perfect? No. But I've yet to see a reason NOT to vote for him outside of some petty talk. I didn't like what AD brought up about the ads to be honest. But it's still not enough for me not to vote especially when I look at the choices in front of me. I heard him speak over a year ago and was very impressed with him having no idea he would be running for President at the time. When I first heard he threw his bid into the ring to run, I knew almost immediately he was at least worth my attention.

That's why I say, I don't have a choice. I can't in good conscience vote for any of the others. I just can't. This may be the first year I don't vote at all when it comes down to the big day.

For those reasons I would not vote for Huckabee.

Gays should have the same damn right to be married...period. It's their lives, not yours and you will be in no way affected by it. If two gay dudes or gals want to shack up, then I'm all for them...I don't see the problem with it. Heterosexual couples sure don't seem to give a crap about marriage...a 50% divorce rate kind of blows that sacredness out of the water.

Also, you can't keep cutting taxes and borrowing from other countries all the time...do you know how much we've been spending since the war started? If we're cutting taxes where's all that cash coming from?

I still want to know why these are a bad things. An openly gay scout leader is much less probable to be a pedophile than one in the closet. And I still need a good reason why gays can't be in the military.


And what do you call "pro-homosexual indocrination"? Simply telling people that being gay is all right, and it doesn't make you a freak is pro-homosexual indocrination?

Well I guess it depends on who you believe.

The Romney campaign is blaming Arizona Senator John McCain for Huckabee's win because most of McCain's delegates shifted to Huckabee on the second ballot vote. There was no hanky panky at all. They worked hard there and all this is a result of Romney not being able to lose graciously.

This is just dirty politics rearing its ugly head.

You missed my point. She is neither, and she is both. She is anything she wants to be. Goza.

For another blog, but I will disagree. But then I dont think government should be in the marriage business period. Civil unions, yes (for tax, inheritance and property issues), and that should be for gays and striaghts.

But marriage is religious matter.

Good point.



Hmm, true enough. But the government has to recognize something between two people of the same sex that decide to be together...a civil union would indeed be just the thing.

~Zoo

Not anymore. Marriage as religious is long gone. It's just cultural now.

Hmm...well, you have a point too. Those on the fly Vegas weddings surely aren't religious...unless of course you worship Elvis. I still think some people take weddings as a religious matter, hence the whole gay marraige debate.


Personally, I don't care who gets married to who or what gets married to what...as long as all parties involved are ready and willing, I'm fine with it. I don't see the point in telling other people who to marry...it doesn't affect anyone's life but theirs.

~Zoo

You are going to get whiplash if you keep it up.

I agree it is not anymore, I am just saying what I think it should be. If the government gets into it big time (as they are always want to do), then they will start demanding that all religions recognize marriages that their faith will not permit. That is why it should be a civil union (for government purposes) and a marriage if you want to have it blessed by a faith.

But we are getting far afield of this article, and that is why I did not really want to get too deep into it.

I hate when everything makes sense...

Still, I'm for a gay marriage/civil union/whatever gives them the same rights as married couples. It's only fair.

No hanky panky?
