McCain can do no wrong in the beltway bumpkins eyes

Yeah, because he's the last man standing. Okay the last man propped up, but still. He's all they have left and by god, he's their man.

Remember they wanted nothing to do with him just a few months ago. However now, next to the rest of the repubs, hell, he looks good to them.

Personally, I loathe Romney, that's why I'm praying (wink) he
gets close or beats McCain...

Cause, McCain would be much more formidable in the general.

Obama, Edwards, strap Mitt to the top of the car and drive!
(sorry for the cruel dog analogy....)

"Bill needs to fire himself if he wants to help her."

Or, stay in the background. He's help with her faithful,
but he hurts with those she needs to draw in?

A high percentage of the young voters Obama is drawing
in were in Jr High when Bill was in office?

He doesn't help a bit with that crowd.

AWEsome video, btw.

No, you've got it all wrong. Per Bob Jones, K-Fed is AN Anti-Christ.

Looks as if Romney & Giuliani may be tanking!!!!!

you know, i agree with your thoughts, but that doesn't mean it bewilders me.

i get it and all, they both suck but mccain at least is reliable, but mccain and his 100 year war shouldn't be formidible at all. in the end its either romney loses by 20% or mccain loses by 18%. hardly a big deal.

i believe whoever it will be will be DESTROYED in the general. dems can't lose.

and i'm not a dem, im a libertarian. don't really like obama either.

just an observation.

If you need a little comedy diversion, or maybe looking for a drinking game tonight, take a look at two very dumb campaign supporters interviewed on Democracy Now today, one for McCain, one for Ron Paul.

If you want a bit drunk, shots for every "I don't know" will do the job.
If you prefer hammered, drinks for every "you know".

It's just three minutes, so keep the pause button handy.

I'll say it again, Clinton;stick a fork in it. Done! Ta-ta, don't let the primary hit you in the ass on the way out, betch. I would rather vote for Janet Reno..

which of the democratic candidates will pursue criminal prosecution against bushco?

Watch for McCain to resurrect from the dead up and coming. With the Neocons pulling the levers behind the curtain.

Oh boy if Hillary beats Obama duck and cover.

LOL

John McCain is certifiable, the guy said he would be happy to let troops stay in iraq for 100 fucking years, he's clearly displaying the onset of dementia, have you seen that crazed look in his eyes ? he's a nut case.

Hillary is still ahead, very early.

Mark Penn's job may be intact for a while longer?

Me too. But not as bad as how I'll feel for young Obama supporters if he loses against Clinton. Thats gonna hurt.

But it's better to be wise and patient then to operate from ones reptilian brain stem.

Keep in mind New Hampshire was a 20% lock up for Clinton until 1 week ago. That in mind Obama will still win.

diebold will decide the winner!!!!!!!!! and the winner issssssssssss diebold and clinton!

I'll paypal you a quarter...and give up on calling elections (then i'll blame it on a state that would choose mccain); then I'll urge the SOS NH to look into any strange phone jamming traffic coming from the clinton campaign :-)

Anything goes and nothing matters. The Bush Years.

#18. Keith--I agree with you completely. I just got in from the gym and MESSNBC was on and Matthews didn't take his thorazine today (anti-psychotic used to keep patient's in the "community") spewing his ususal fluff for McCain and Rudeye. Matthews doesn't know his ample ass from third base.

I am so embarrassed for Keith because Chris is certifiably batshit insane. He brings absolutely NOTHING to the discussion.

Did anyone happen to catch Tweety fawning over his scumbag pal, Tom Delay? It was sickening. DeLay lives in a time warp--Tweety thinks it would be "swell" if Newt jumped into the race "to shake things up." Tweety--go to hell!!!!

Keep an eye on those New Hampshire voting machines...

in two yrs mcCAIN will be wandering around the whitehouse asking folks to listen to his arterys hardening!!!!!!!!!!!nick nick!

wft? McCain?

New Hampshire proves they are the most brainwashable population in the United States. Thanks for nothing corporate media.

ConcernedCanuck @ 46:

If Clinton wins after all the polls saying differently, you know the fix is in. Only way to explain it.

Exactly. Especially with the turnout as high as it is.

Why haven't more people been paying attention to those damn voting machines?

ConcernedCanuck @ 46:

I agree. You know people are trying to infiltrate our voting systems. If they succeed. We lose.

trying to infiltrate ,where you been , diebold rules!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I warned about the voting machines early this morning on an earlier post. Too bad NH wasnt listening.

wait untill all thoes other primarys diebolds kick in !!!!!!!!!!nick nick!

jerry mcmeans @ 60:

Obama might still win this, only 15% of the precincts are in.

I'm sure even in defeat he'll be a gentlemen.

I knew Ron Paul would do well in New Hampshire (by second rate candidate standards) but if he beats Guliani I don't think they'll be any shutting up the Paultards.

ConcernedCanuck @ 62:

So much for "change", eh America. Seems Mr. Corporation does not trust you to vote in his candidate, so he's gonna do it for you. How did I KNOW this was going to happen.

80 Million Retiring Baby Boomers want to make sure their investments remain safe and sound and the money Bush stole returned to it's rightful owners.

Hillary is way ahead of Obama, in Manchester, NH, according to CNN, at this time by 46 to 31 per cent.

What happened to the polls last night showing Obama with a 9-10 point lead? I thought he'd be a shoe in... :(

Not any real mention of Edwards all day

There no Diebold machines in New Hampshire.

MSNBC just stated it is projecting McCain the winner in NH with 13% of the precincts reporting. Here’s where it is odd to me.

Obama is currently trailing (based on the results CNN is showing) Clinton by almost exactly 2,000 votes and it is being called “Too Close To Call”

Meanwhile, McCain is leading Romney by 2,400, and both MSNBC and CNN are projecting McCain the winner - even with only 13% precincts reporting on both sides.

What is wrong with this picture?

It's based on a mix of exit polling data and other factors (regional trends, other polls, etc.). The data basically expects the McCain trend to continue but the Clinton/Obama fight is too close to call.

How come the McMedia is saying McCaine won when only 15% is reported?

15.61% IN: CLINTON 40; OBAMA 36; EDWARDS 17; RICHARDSON 4; KUCINICH 2...
15.28% IN: *MCCAIN 37; ROMNEY 28; HUCKABEE 12; GIULIANI 9; PAUL 8; THOMPSON 1...

Seriously

AP - 11 minutes ago

CONDORD, N.H. - Arizona Sen. John McCain won the New Hampshire Republican primary Tuesday night, completing a remarkable comeback and climbing back into contention for the presidential nomination. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton dueled with Sen. Barack Obama in an unexpectedly tight Democratic race.

Hillary is pulling away now. Oh my. What a surprise.

"No, you people are leaping to conclusion and making assumptions with only 15% of the ballots in and the networks still saying it’s too close to call. It’s not even over and you whiners are crying foul. Just because Hillary is ahead now doesn’t mean when more data comes in Obama won’t recover. I mean I know the US is far from perfect but if you don’t have any faith in the elections why even bother paying attention or voting? You have more faith in polls than actual elections, it’s ridiculous!"

I seem to recall after all of the Shrub's screw ups there was no way, no way he would EVER be re-elected/selected. Pardon the well founded cynic.

http://politics.nytimes.com/election-guide/2008/results/states/NH.html

For real time results. Romney is conceding to McCain too early, shameful.

Arrow Says: What happened to the polls last night showing Obama with a 9-10 point lead? I thought he’d be a shoe in…

Maybe his supporters are just voting "present", like he does.

I honestly don't want Clinton to win. This makes me sad :(

But if she does win, I'll support her... though reluctantly.

I was hoping Mr. Vermin Supreme would have garnered more support from Repugs on the sexual predators list.
WE know you're out there.

88 tyree

What happened to old hamster. LOL

its rotted from within

Hee,Hee, Write-ins total more than Thompson, Hunter, Keys, and Tancredo combined. :-)

GAH! This is 2000 vote gap is driving me crazy!

jerry mcmeans @ 100:

The college kids will put Obama over the top most likely.

From your fingertips to god's ears...

Am watching the MSNBC live stream--no mention of delegates. In Iowa the Dems split them 3 ways--I think it was 31 Obama, 30 Clinton, and 29 Edwards. What is the split in NH? The nomination is decided by delegate votes not primary votes. So, what is the real score?

As an aside, I think it was Huckabee 33 and Romney 7 in Iowa, and then Romney won Wyoming, with a few votes to Thompson. What is the delegate count after NH?

lopaloo102 @ 102:

well, at least ron paul will be forgotten after his newsletters were released today

Check out his CURRENT newsletters, they are wacky enough.

On stem cells: "If Congress attempts to override the President’s veto, I will support the President."

On racism: "It’s disconcerting to see third parties become involved and presume to speak collectively for minority groups."

Wait. There are minority groups? I thought that was just a collectivist mindset?

"It is precisely this collectivist mindset that is at the heart of racism. It’s also disconcerting to hear the subtle or not-so-subtle threats against free speech. Since the FCC regulates airwaves and grants broadcast licenses, we’re told it’s proper for government to forbid certain kinds of insulting or offensive speech in the name of racial and social tolerance."

That's correct. You have no right to hate speech. I guess Ron Paul missed out on the Nazis -- oh wait -- they support his candidacy and he gladly accepts their money.

"Never mind the 1st Amendment, which states unequivocally that, “Congress shall make NO law.”

Yes, and the 2/5 rule can just be ignored as a bad idea, right?

http://www.house.gov/paul/legis_tst.htm

Twice last year L Ron Paul tried to establish personhood at conception, by Congressional lawmaking. Doesn't he think the Congress shouldn't try to federalize such ideas? Of course, that's what he says. But then he tries to anyhow, because he's A LIAR.

Hillary didn't win by a landslide.

She slid in.

What up with Gregory's hair? It looks like a made-in-china wig. It's too blond and streaky.

Tweedy said Obama looked clean. WTF? Is Obama suppose to look like he came off the plantation?
What a old white, stupidass, dumbass.

It's very sad for me to see some here trashing Hillary after this win. Comparing her to Bush?!?!? Are you kidding me? DIEBOLD?!?!? Be proud and excited for any Democrat who does well in any of these primaries. We are turning out in record numbers, we are out raising the republicans for the first time in decades, and we are all getting the message out that the true change thats happening in America is the absolute repudiation of republicanism!! Stand proud Democrats. Support who you want but in the end support the nominee for the general with your head held high. Whomever he or she is. Support someone not because of your dislike for another. I personally want a Clinton/Obama ticket no matter who is on top. I want those who wouldnt vote for a black man or a woman finally to come out from their racist, sexist shadows where we can see them in broad daylight, and exactly for what they are. I am so proud to be a Democrat these days. Now is the time for this change. Fired up!!! Ready to go!!! As far as Hillary is concerned, I still cant figure out why people dislike her except that weve been told to do so for the past 15 years by the repugs and the media. Thats not good enough. Socialized medicine? I like it just like I like my socialized police or fire departments. Calculating? Good!! She'll need to be to counter all the lies and crap the traitorous repugs are going to sling. Doesnt connect with people? Arent we done yet trying to have a beer with our president? As far as Obama is concerned, love him. Great speaker, great Democrat, great leader. I would be equally proud to vote for him in the general. As I would for Edwards, Kucinich, Dodd, or anyone who IS NOT A LYING, THIEVING, TRAITOROUS, AMERICA HATING repuglican!!! Good Night my brothers and sisters democrat. I am proud of you.

PMRC, Patriot Act, Iraq War vote, war funding votes, border fence funding, Real ID funding, declaring Iran's army a terrorist organization, confirmation of Tom Ridge, Michael Chertoff, John Negroponte...I can keep going if you want.

We also saw NAFTA and the Telecommunications Act under her husband's loving watch. Lord knows what else the Clinton dynasty would love to sink their fangs into.

lopaloo102 @ 102:

well, at least ron paul will be forgotten after his newsletters were released today (if it turns out to be the same ron paul...pretty mean stuff in there)

As supporter of Dr. Paul I will attempt to ascertain the truth before coming to any conclusion's.

But I do agree that if Ron allowed these to be published under his name, I would be dissappointed.

I know he took responsibility, and fired the person involved.

But my support is issue based.

Sorry I don't want my country raping other countries.

hindering our health freedom, or spying on us illegally and getting away with it.

Nor do I want my saving's destroyed by Central Bank inflation.

Now I'm thinking that the Iowa thing was distorted by too much politicking and media. The NH results look a lot more like what everybody was expecting.

McCain will be the Iron Triangle's dummy of choice. They have to convert the Huckabee vote over to him though, and that might be easier said than done.

Clinton and Obama. NH is generally regarded as a very progressive state, yet Clinton won.

Well, the two top candidates are a woman and a black man. Anyway you shake it, we have come along way, and no matter which of those candidates you prefer, each of them has played important roles in breaking down political boundaries in our country.

I like most of the Democrats, although Dennis K. is my fav. Any one of them would be the FAR lessor of two evils come General Election time. I do suspect some election shenanigans in N.H. and I worry that said BS will carry on in the General election to hurt the Democratic nominee. Sadly I wonder if there have been back-room deals and the whole thing is already over. Still, I will suck up my somewhat justified paranoia and cheer for Clinton, Edwards, Barack, or whoever wins the Democratic nomination. And even a Repuke would be better than what we have now, with the possible exception of Rudy One-Note.
