It's getting very exciting in this presidential contest. Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the water!....
I have to admit to having more questions than answers. I have to admit that, because of Romney's "deep pockets," I was expecting Huckabee to be the next to fold. Now that Mitt is gone, I do fully expect Mike Huckabee to be the one to go down next. Ten little Indians, with a vengeance!
Huckabee's finances are on the ropes. Will evangelicals rally around Mike and fund his campaign? I think there are just too many questions and clouds in the minds of too many for that to happen. I think that non-evangelicals for the most part find Huckabee more terrifying than John McCain.
From all reports, Romney is throwing his support to McCain. What I find curiously interesting about that is the fact that myriads of voters just spent their Super Tuesday voting for Mitt because he was the "lesser of two evils" and because they despise John McCain as the liberal/liberal sympathizer that he so clearly is.
Let that be a lesson to you, O ye of little faith, who vote for the "lesser" - vote for less, get less! Vote for the "lesser of evils," get EVIL! And you know that I told you so!
Will so-called "values voters" now wake up and support the only true conservative left in this race? Will they join Norma McCorvey in recognizing Ron Paul as being the best choice for a pro-life president?
Is this a ploy to insure that McCain has a guaranteed majority of pledged delegates at the Republican National Convention? Perhaps. I don't fully understand all the implications of that, and I hope that others who do will chime in here. If that is the case, there is the clear "smoking gun" that should make it obvious to you, Republican, Democrat, or Independent, that the GOP machine has become a perversion with respect to any semblance of concern about a "Republican platform." Given an election in November offering the "apparent choice" of McCain v Clinton or McCain v Obama, there isn't a nickel's worth of difference to make it worth going to the polls for most voters.
Of course, we know there are always real and good choices. This race isn't over yet. The fat lady hasn't sung yet. Ron Paul supporters, spread the word! Work for those delegates in the remaining states (for information on exactly how to sign up and do that, go here now.)

I know it isn't likly, but I would like to see romney endorse paul, just to stir things up. You know he has to be upset with mccain over the loss, and he hast be be really upset with huckabe for not dropping out and ruining his chances.
I know bette though, it's just going to me more of the same, nothing ever changes.
Jason, things do change. They changed once again today. Just hang in there, and keep on working for Ron Paul and Liberty! Our life and our country depend on it!
I'm not sad at all, make them bleed till they go broke! Let's continue to make a statement and organize a final rally at the National GOP Convention. Be great if most of Ron Paul supporters dress up as revolutionary soldiers for the rally.

PLEASE – don't dress up like revolutionary soldiers (I know, McFool was probably just kiding, but...) It's stuff like that that makes others go, "Hmmm... Not sure I want to be part of THAT crowd."
Go to the GOP Convention and represent him in a way that shows people, 'we're just normal Americans like you.' (Sidenote: And don't ever go to a Star Wars movie dressed in a Stormtrooper costume either – unless you have your kids with you and they're delighted by it. Otherwise, you just look a little bit silly.)
