Huckabee has got to go

I went and voted early today. The overwhelming consensus among those in line (and also on talk radio) is he is splitting the conservative vote with Romney. That is what is leading to McCain's wins.

If McCain wins, we will just have another democrat running for office against either Hillary or Obama.

At this time, Huck isn't gaining ground except in Alabama and Georgia. That is not enough to win. Do the honorable thing and let conservatism have a chance.

I voted early here in Georgia and voted for Romney. He's not perfect, but he's better than McCain.

Ditto here.

Eight years ago, I threw away my vote by voting for Alan Keyes. I couldn't afford to do that this time. It is now, whether people on here like it or not, a two man race. Conservatives can't afford to throw away their votes and be stuck with a liberal Republican against a liberal Democrat.

Do you know the weird thing? Alan Keyes was on the Georgia GOP presidential primary ballot when I voted the other day. How the heck he got on there I don't know. I didn't know he was running.

I'm not really sure what you mean, Steve, but I'm guessing it's a pro-Huckabee statement of some kind.

At some point, Steve, you have to wake up and be a realist and realize Huckabee has no chance of getting the nomination, much less winning the General Election. Now get with it and vote for the better of the 2 viable choices, Romney. Don't waste your vote.

Dajudge, I saw that too. I didn't know he was running. He did an even worse job than last time of getting his message out.

Um, Steve, you need to inform Huckabee that they don't allow tours of the White House any more.

The only way he is going to the White House is after McCain gives him a position in his cabinet for throwing the election to a liberal like McCain.
:wink:

Read his subject line first... makes perfect sense, and I happen to agree. I can't vote for Regan, or Nixon, so...

We have subject lines? :lol:

I never read those things and I never fill them in unless Jude 2 does it automatically.

Most state's primaries aren't winner-take-all elections. It doesn't hurt for Huck to stay in. He can give the delegates he wins to whomever he wants later.

Man you liked alan keyes as well? I think he did great in those debates. Well I agree it has confused me as to how Mccain is getting this support but it makes sense now. It is a split between hucabee and romney if huck goes i think you will see romney grow in number and be ahead by a lot. I feel romney would do a good job maybe even a great job but mccain will be no different then the other side. He will also be smoked by either hilary or obama. I think romney can get the repubicans to vote but if he loses the primary we have no chance. He jsut seems to be able to handle debates very well to.
I am supporting him at the moment :wink:

I would like to see him get fred as a vice, then he could really do good. Huckabee as a vice would be interesting maybe he could still get some fairtax talk going.

You aren't throwing your vote away for Huckabee. He's got a real chance to sweep the south and gain a lot of delegates. It's still a wide open race and it's been a joy to support such a great grassroots effort.

MrDanger · Postby **MrDanger** » January 31st, 2008, 2:02 pm

Recheck your numbers. Huck is only leading in two states in the south. In most states, he is third. Of course, I do know that polls can be wrong, but typically they aren't that far off.

I think I have made up my mind to vote Romney next week.

I think McCain probably has just as good a shot at beating a dem. if not better than Romney or Huck.
