My husband and I went there, not too many people voting. But that’s usual here, as the town population is only 15K if you don’t count the illegals.

I used the new electronic voting machine (has a paper record too by law here in CA) and my husband used the traditional scanning paper ballot.

My husband’s paper ballot refused to scan several times. Finally it went through. The workers there weren’t the brightest bulbs either.

Huck’s folksiness impresses enough people to give him the support needed to climb in the polls and he continues to show the same charm in the proceeding debates. By the time most people get a hold of Huck’s record he’s challenging Rudy in Florida and taking away Romney’s votes in South Carolina.

While never getting enough support to win the nomination, Huckabee siphons enough votes away from Romney, which gives McCain wins in key states (most likely) a Romey defeats where he would have otherwise won (W. Virginia).

So remember if the guy who eschews converatism on every major issue becomes the GOP candidate, the root cause of it all (pun sligtly intended), may be John Edwards hair.

I’m starting to think all primarys should be held nation-wide on the same day so everyone has a chance to vote for the person they want and then let the games start.

I don’t like the Iowa-NH system either, but Mrs. Malkin made a great point a while back about the need to have some form of retail politics. Shaking hands, kissing babies, getting to know the “common man.”

Of course, the large number of disenfranchised every year is unacceptable. Hopefully 2012 will offer a new and better way.

Look out! It looks like Michelle has some stroke!

Actually, if he had any morals, he’d be telling voters to vote for who they believe in, whether that person is leading or not.

However I’m not one to talk – if McCain ends up on top, I’m voting Hillary come November. I’d rather generations to come learn a lesson about voting Dem than having a RINO take the fall for what will happen in the US over the coming years.

Have you never heard the term “brokered convention”?

There was nothing illegal or unethical about it and it doesn’t show that Huck is in the bag for McCain.

It was a smart strategic move by McCain. His campaign doesn’t fear Huck.

What was Huck supposed to do, ask people not to vote for him?

Romney has played the whole campaign dirty and the second something doesn’t go his way his supporters are the first to cry.
