Well, we can finally agree on something techs.
Here's to hoping 9/11 fades in to the sunset once and for all.

I think that Rudy is about to sing his farewell song. I don't think that he will break 17% in FL and will finish a distant third. When/if he does.....there goes the financial support needed to compete in the rest and with very little exposure, he is an afterthought.
As for Huck....Fox News had a couple of people on this AM talking about the Kennedy endorsement of Obama and then switched over to the R primaries and were pondering how long should he (Huck) stay in because they feel his run is DOA.

But unless either McCain or Romney sweeps super Tuesday, its still hard to see super Tuesday as being decisive on the Republican side. If Huckabee and Paul stay in and can lock up 25% of the vote between them, its hard to see either McCain or Romney locking up the nomination any time soon.

Didn't McCain only beat Huck by 3 points in South Carolina? And McCain spent something like ten times as much as Huck?
If the media had reported the results for what they were, a spectacular showing by Huck, or if Huck had more money, Huck would be the odds on favorite now.

Yes. Huckabee is doing much better than people are giving him credit for. He has a lot more support than the media is letting on or that people want to admit. He has a very small budget and has made it stretch and work for him... that has to say something about him.

He relies on the religious, who agree with his "take back America for Jesus" campaign. Otherwise, I think finding support will be difficult for him.

It says there are a lot of religious fanatics out there.

south carolina was a must-win for Huckabee.
if he can't win a southern state with a large evangelical demographic that george bush used to decimate mccain in '00, how can he expect to win anywhere else? he might snag a deep south state or two, but could it really hold up against McCain sweeping the NE and west?

so far it's looking like possibly Yet Another Florida Election Clusterfuck.
Hill seems to have it locked up, but McCain/Douchebag seem to be neck and neck, with voting machine problems already reported in one county.

Obama didnt step foot in Florida. Clinton did.
Of course shes going to win handily. The Clintons might want Michigan and Florida Delegates seated, but it isnt going to happen.

for sure.
but I wonder if the coverage might somehow blunt Obama's SC win, like her NH win did for his Iowa.
edit: I edited out Edwards... because he's not even worth the fraction of a second it takes to read his name.
