Dude, Obama again! My turn, and this is for anyone not just wnes: Who said this: “Don't write so that you can be understood, write so that you can't be misunderstood.”
Would be kind of an awesome way of doing it, everyone votes for who they hate most, and the loser wins. A massive exercise in process of elimination. I wonder who would win. Lack of Name Recognition would be huge. "Jennifer Smith wins yet AGAIN!!"
Based on CNN's breakdown (their technology w/ that touch screen system that zooms in on counties and such is awesome), it looks like McCain is going to win this thing.
I hope so. Some of you Dems want Romney to beat McCain because he would be easier to defeat in November, but things don't always happen like you plan.

For McCain, this pretty much seals up the nomination barring some kind of huge gaffe. McCain leads virtually all the major Super Tuesday states. Romney's got money, but making up that much ground no momentum is virtually impossible. Especially as Guiliani is going to endorse McCain in the next day or two. Super Tuesday will be the end of that race.
As someone who prefers just about any Democratic nominee over the Republican ones, this is not a good sign. McCain's win means he can quickly start working on the general election, while Hilary and Obama are still beating each other.
I don't think you realize how much McCain is not liked in the republican party. voting twice against the Bush tax cuts? amnesty for illegals? [edit] And he hates Ann Coulter.
McCain needs Hillary to win on the Dem side - that resolves many of his issues with the GOP Base as they'll come out in mass to vote against Hillary.
Giuliani to Drop Out, Endorse McCain http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalradar/2008/01/giuliani-to-end.html what will basso do?
I guess I should have said the base. http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.co...onservatives-for-romney-moderates-for-mccain/
The reason many Republicans don't like McCain is because he is a maverick instead of a team player. If he's the nominee, they will fall in love with him, especially if Hillary is on the other side.
No delegates at stake, but wow, did Hillary every maul Obama in Florida. Does this extinguish Obama's South Carolina momentum? It really looks like Latinos simply won't vote for the guy.
