    Thanks. Thats what I thought, but I was just making sure. Stupid media hype. You'd think every one of these primaries was the presidential election.

    This from our resident ROMNEY SUPPORTER! LOL!

    How many millions of his own dollars did he blow on Iowa AND New Hampshire, only to lose huge leads in both?

    I'm bummed that Obama lost, but if he can right the ship he'll be a better candidate in the long run for it. Meanwhile, Romney's finished.

    First off Bats, I'm undecided.

    Second, you are gawd awful at predicting elections. And I mean BAD. For the 2nd time, you've been proven to be DEAD WRONG literally less than 24 hours after opening your trap to make a prediction. You sir, are just out of touch with reality.

    You're like the president of Flip Floppers for Flip Floppers.

    Yes, I have been exactly as bad predicting each of those races as 99% of professional observers of politics and political futures markets (which apparently go poof when they don't agree with you).

    What went wrong with Romney, Jorge? And why did you decide to flip flop on your support of him? Was it all the flip flopping? That would be ironic.

    APOLOGY ACCEPTED

    With regard to Romney, he does have the most delegates right now on the (R) side. I'm undecided as a voter. I recognize the obvious truth that Romney is the smartest and most capable leader in this race -- on either side. He is a genius in both the academic setting as well as the practical setting (business). On top of that, he's been a successful politician. He gets things done. The others are all talk and visions of sugarplums.

    One exit polled voter said it best yesterday -- "I was having fun with the Obama fantasy, but when it came down to thinking about reality, I just couldn't vote for him."
    There's talk, and then there is successful action. A look at the top two lib leaders shows a woman most known for her healthcare policy failure and a man who has accomplished absolutely nothing as a legislator or a leader. Neither have balanced a budget. Neither have had responsibility for a state, city, business, nothing. How are these two even in this race?! It's a joke.

    For such a smart plan, he seriously whiffed on the last two weeks. A successful politician who gets things done? With a year of huge spending, strong organization, and funds that ran circles around his opponents, be couldn't win either of the two states he built his candidacy on. What exactly does that say about his skills?

    This is a very interesting election cycle to say the least.

    here's an interesting tid bit --

    Bill vs. Hill and Obama

    From NBC's Norah O'Donnell, Barbara Bernhard, and Adam Verdugo

    Term limits aside, what if your candidate was running against Bill Clinton in the New Hampshire primary? Let's look at how both Obama and Hillary supporters responded...

    The vast majority of Obama's voters would have stayed with him: 73% for Obama, 23% for Bill Clinton.

    Among Hillary's voters, it's a different story: More voters would have cast their ballots for Bill Clinton if it would have been possible to vote for him, 58% to 42%.

    does this mean more than half who voted for Hillary just voted for because she's Bill's wife?

    Maybe just less then half voted for Bill because he's Hillary's husband ;)

    I was surprised such a high percentage of Barak supporters would prefer Bill. I thought they wanted 'change.'

    Who WON the Democratic Primary in New Hampshire again?

    Looks like a tie to me.

    Media turns the early primaries into a 100 yard dash. It is inaccurate and irresponsible.
