Alright, here's the impressions I'm getting from Stupor Tuesday...
It looks like Obama is still charging ahead, as he appears to have won Missouri. (That one's close though.) He won a bunch of states in the South in landslides, so that'll help him. On the wingnut side, it looks like Huckabee got a whole bunch of states, so I guess he's back in. Which is funny, because he doesn't have a chance in hell of winning the general election. (I didn't think he'd win much of anything today.) The big loser Tuesday was McCain.
Also, the delegates might still be so split by the time of the convention that the parties will nominate people who aren't even running at all. I think they can do that, you know. You may yet see Al Gore running against Newt Gingrich in November! (I'd love to see the electoral map of that!)
Still no word on who the Green frontrunner is.

Actually McCain didn't lose by nearly as much as I thought, now that they took Oklahoma away from Fuckapee.
ReplyDeleteStill I thought he would run away with most of the states, and he didn't even do that.
Every pundit says it was McCain's day...I don't see how.
ReplyDeleteThe nazi wing of the GOP (Huck + Romney) won more states than McCain.
I'm predicting it's gonna be Obama vs. Huck (vs. whoever the Greens pick of course).
With the wife-beater vote going to Huckabee, don't you think it's likely that they'll AT LEAST have to pick him as veep??
ReplyDeleteThe Republix are always worried about losing the Pat Robertson vote for some reason...
McCain is the best Democrat running.
ReplyDeleteAnd why's that, SBD? McCain's not a Republican because he doesn't believe the "creationism" fairytale?
ReplyDeleteHead Knocker:
ReplyDeleteI think if McCain does get the nod, he'll pick Huckabee. But when people realize what weird views Huckster has, he'll be the national joke.
Remember what a joke Dan Quayle was? It'll be like that.
Actually, Reality, that was a joke. Hardline pundits like Sean Hannity, Ann Coulter are in an uproar because McCain is viewed as too liberal by some.
ReplyDeleteWhether or not a candidate believes in Creationism wouldn't any affect the way I vote any more than whether a candidate prefers Chicago or New York style pizza.
