I'd love for Ron Paul, but since that's not even remotely likely I'll gladly take Obama over the other puppets. Even if I might not agree with some of his policies, I'll still support him for his honesty and integrity.

Hillary's disgustingly power hungry. She'll do anything to get elected (even crying TWICE now before important primaries to look more "emotional" and sway voters). She mud slings, lies, flip flops, panders, etc, etc. If this is what she does to win, I don't care if she has the greatest policy in the world (which is far from the case). I still would never vote her.

McCain seems entirely too war happy. I thought Americans wanted out of Iraq? I also feel like he's way too willing to go to war with Iran. The last thing we need right now is more war. Our foreign policy needs some serious rethinking that McCain doesn't represent.

Romney will win California and some of the Western states - but I actually see him losing Mass.  Mccain will do well in the North East and South West.  Huckabee will hurt Romney enough in the southern states for Mccain to 'win' pluaralities in the South.  Paul will come in fourth in about 1/2 the states, third in about 1/3 of the states, and 2nd or 1st in a few others.  I actually think he could win Alaska, and he's got a shot in Montana, Minnesota, and I could see him pulling off an upset or two in places like Illinois.

Obama will win California, Illinois, most of the midwestern and southern states.  Clinton will win NY, NJ, and CT, and be effectively tied in the south and south western states.

This is not any Tuesday...It's Pancake Day!

Do you have Pancake day in the US?


OT: What vote is this today? Is it the main US elections?



 

if Hilary wins, then the race for presidency will be a lot closer when she goes up against McCain. But if Obama wins (i'll be voting for him) then his win over a republican will be more decisive.
regardless, come 2009, it will be a democrat sitting in the oval office....

Today is the day that republicans and democrats in many states hold votes on which candidate they will select to run for the presidency.

Huckabee won West Virginia.

Yep just saw that. How come it closes so quickly with only about 1,000 voters???



I wish McCain would lose - he won't, but I wish he would. Why? He's the only Republican candidate with a chance of winning in November. Mostly because he's a wolf in sheep's clothes (to me, a pretty liberal liberal. take a look at his voting record - he's not particularly more moderate than Romney, in spite of some popular perception otherwise).

I support Obama.
