Rudy and Edwards are out. Things are tightening..
Do you think Huck should call it quits.. before he splits the votes from Romney?

What say you?

Yep. Chuck the Huck.

This is the way it appears.. let me know if I'm wrong.

Because the evangelicals are so loyal.. if Huck doesn't step down soon he will be the Ralph Nader of the Republican primaries.. essentially allowing the more liberal Republican to get the nomination, ie: John McCain.

I also think it's time to start the VP selections.. or at least show strong alliances on which way they will lean.. etc

Huck needs to go. I think he's a good man, but he's not going to win. And Romney needs Huck's votes to stop McCain. Even if Huck is still in on Super Tuesday, I'm voting for Romney in the Georgia primary.

I went and voted early today. I specifically waited to see how Rudy would do in Florida. With him gone I shifted my vote to Romney. Huck was a spoiler from the beginning and I believe he is playing for VP. I'm saying Romney/Rice 08!

I was surprised to read Ann Coulter's column today where she basically says she'd rather have Hillary than McCain. With Hillary, she believes the Repub Congress would at least put up a fight with the crazy policies, but with McCain, they'd go along with "our" president.

She has a point. And, there would also be a possible backlash against her in the public that could lead to the GOP retaking Congress, like we did in 94 when Hillary's husband was pres.

That is a good point.

I've always heard it said that Congress, no matter how you cut it, is more powerful than the President...but only if they want to be.

I agree with her Dewayne. Hillary will stumble through a presidency. McCain and Obama are scary with their liberal agenda and I don't see congress standing in their way. With Hillary, some of the Dems are so mad at the Clintons right now, they might even go against her.

Interesting points by all. Hummm.

I propose that if McCain does win the nomination and Hillary wins (uh yea).. she will trounce him anyway. (McCain apparently won't even have the conservative base to support him)

In the end.. Democrats and liberal moderates will support Hillary + (world renowned and loved..) Bill.

No brainer.
