What if a man said he could control his wife?

If a woman says it, she has what it takes to be president.  I may actually watch ABC news tonight.

Of course Mike Huckabee is a religious nutjob for standing behind a biblical reference.

John Edwards – a Man of the People

“And as I was leaving, one woman said to me, “You won’t forget us, will you? Promise me you won’t forget us.”

Well, I say to her, and I say to all those who are struggling in this country, we will never forget you. We will fight for you. We will stand up for you.”

He will stand up for you in his 28000 SF home. Is that him at the front door?

On the Record with Mitt Romney

Take your pick.

Laughing Maniaclly (imagine Tom Cruise) – The Conservative Candidate.  I don’t think so.

McCain and the “Not Very Conservative” vote – Part 2

For his second consecutive primary win, McCain did it with the “not very conservative” vote.

I am anxious to see Huckabee do well on Super Tuesday.  If the “Right” media did not have a bias against Huckabee, his campaign wouldn’t have the perception of stagnation.  Reality is, Romney’s campaign isn’t doing any better than Huckabee. In fact, if Romney wasn’t propped up by special intrest groups and writing checks from his own account, he would be doing much worse.  As others in the blog world have stated, Mike Huckabee is the only true conservative in the race.

My hopes (I’m not holding my breath) are that:

1. the Republican party will recognize the lack of enthusiasm for Romney (if people trusted him, we would be tripping over ourselves to get him elected)

2. the voters will re-examine to find Huckabee as THE viable conservative candidate.

I have been getting e-mails from the Republican Party asking for contributions so they can keep pace with the Democrats.  If the nominee is Romney, and to a slightly lesser extent McCain, they can forget it.  I may vote for them because I have no other choice.  But, I’ll be first in line when Mike gets the nomination.

Get Back to work for Mike

McCain is pulling ahead with 76% of the vote in Florida in.

But, it is time to go back to work for Mike.  Mike is still in the game.  But, the field narrows as it’s looking like Rudy may drop out tomorrow.

Mike’s strategy is to gather a handful of states on Super Tuesday.  He is tied or in the lead in several states and has an opportunity to get more support during the next debate.

Romney is still trying to buy the election.  Yet, the voters continue to turn to alternate choices.  The Republican establishment continues to push Romney, the talk radio guys/gals continue to tear down McCain and Huckabee.  But, Romney still doesn’t win.   It is a very real possibility that Huckabee could see another surge as a response to McCain’s win.
There are still 3 things to do to help Mike get elected.

1. Send Mike Money

2. Tell a friend – we still have a lot of friends in Texas and have been pumping them up.

3. Make Phone Calls for Mike.  Sign up to be a Ranger.  My wife made 26 more calls today.  All Mike asks for is 5.

McCain & Crist Ticket?

We are clinging to hope for Mike Huckabee.  It looks like our best bet is a brokered convention now.  Unfortunately, Huck doesn’t get much support from the Republican party.

I think McCain will start pulling Right in order to get the base republicans.  BUT, in order to win the general election, I’ve often thought he will need the Evangelical vote.  If he agrees, Mike Huckabee is on the ticket.

However, tonight, McCain owes Charlie Crist some big love for possibly swinging the election.  A lot of people (I like GW, but include myself in this group) think that the wrong Bush was elected President.   Jeb Bush was a great governor and is  still a popular in Florida.  But, Charlie Crist is even more popular.

The last two general elections have shown that Florida is a key state.  McCain may need that vote more than the support that Mike brings.

The race is on.

John McCain declared winner by Fox News at 9:11

Strange coincidence.  I’m glad it’s not Romney.

National Organization for Women and Ted Kennedy

It is 8:58PM on Tuesday Jan 29. And I’m about to side with Ted Kennedy. NOW is upset because he had the gall to endorse a candidate that doesn’t have breasts.

“We are repaid with his abandonment!” the statement said. “He’s picked the new guy over us. He’s joined the list of progressive white men who can’t or won’t handle the prospect of a woman president who is Hillary Clinton.”

Could it possibly be that Kennedy, like others, is offended by Bill Clinton covertly drawing race into this election? Could it be that Kennedy, like others, finds Hillary to polarizing to be president? Could it be that Kennedy, like others, think it is time for a ‘fresh, new’ direction? I don’t like Obama. But, I love him over Hillary.

If NOW was really concerned with supporting women . . . would they support someone like Condoleeza Rice or Alaska Governor Sarah Palin (stongly pro-life)? I doubt it.

Is NOW unaware that for the first time ever, an African America has a legitimate chance of being elected President?

Exit Polls in Florida

WOW.  At 8:21PM it’s really close in Florida.

Based on Age   McCain 32.4  Romney 32.8

Based on Sex   McCain 32.7   Romney 32.4

Medically Necessary Abortion

A jewel you will find on this link.  Dr. C. Everett Coop, former U.S. Surgeon General, stated, “… in no way can I twist my mind to see that the late-term abortion as described is a medical necessity for the mother. It certainly can’t be a necessity for the baby.”
