cyberdude611 -> Romney wins in Michigan (1/15/2008 6:47:37 PM)

Romney gets a big win in Michigan and stays alive. The GOP race is still wide open and this will probably knock McCain down a few pegs....

So popeye, since you're in SC, who's going to win it? Lindsey Graham says McCain has it in the bag. No question....

Well, Lindsey Graham is up for re-election and everyone I know is voting against him.
I think Mitt Romney will come in first or second here, he has a lot of signs out.
And up in Michigan Ron Paul came out ahead of Rudy.

It's irrelevent though. Remember that if Rudy wins Florida, he becomes the front-runner. Florida is a "winner take all" state. Meaning whoever is 1st place gets all 57 delegates and will lead the delegate count going into Super Tuesday.

McCain was Rudy's biggest threat in Florida.

Dude.....


Are you aware of the fact that Michigan has an ''open'' primary and that many Democrat Party-leaning web sites and radio programs have been asking their constituency/listening audience to cross the Republican threshold and vote for the Mormon?   Similar to what Republican Party members did for George Wallace back in the 70's?

According to the exit polls, only 7% of the people that voted in the GOP primary were Democrats and the majority of those voted for McCain.

So if you take out those crossing over Dems....Romney would have had an even larger victory.

Gota link to your polling data? I'm reading a few of the blogs right now and things sound a little different {especially with left-leaning A-political voters} [;)]

They were talking about it on CNN earlier. I'll have to search their polling data to find it. But they said that whole blogger campaign was insignificant.

Its about 2/3rds down the page where it says "Vote by party ID"

Only 7% of Democrats participated in the Republican race. Of those 7%......41% voted for McCain, 33% voted for Romney, 14% voted for Huckabee, and 7% for Ron Paul.

It looks like the Dems went more with what Obama and Edwards wanted them to do....vote "uncommitted" in the Democrat race.

So that internet campaign to screw up the GOP had nothing to do with Romney's win. It was insignificant statistically.

Well....I have to cede your point. But here's what's strange:  Go down to the category ''Vote by Ideology'' The liberalist of voters voted 33 and 30 percent respectively for McCain and Romney to 13 percent for Ron Paul.

That's nutty unless we're talking just name recognition.

The local News station here last night said that the number one issue with local voters is illegal immigration so that does not bode well for McCain on saturday.
Nor does it look good for Senator Lindsey Graham who basically told the voters of S. Carolina to go fuck themselves for being against the Bush/Kennedy/McCain amnesty.
Of course Lindsey Graham wants to be V.P. on McCain's ticket so it will be my pleasure to vote against both of them.
Hey Lindsey, fuck me? No, FUCK YOU! ASSHOLE!
