Hillary also is the only one that made a big deal about. As Corpse posted earlier she said she though votes should count and that makes voters lean towards her. Now I'm sure she said only because she was leading in the polls, but then again everything she said I think is mostly to make sure she can get elected.

It's funny, Hillary's campaign site has "HILLARY WINS FLORIDA" in humongous font, whereas Obama's campaign simply sent out a press release calling the vote a tie. (CLINTON: 0, OBAMA: 0) He should keep up the humor.

cnn and fox news declare mccain. good to see.

So McCain wins florida. Ho Hum. I guess he'll be the nominee after all. I'll just have to live with it then but I'm confident he'll be able to defeat Hillary or Obama in the general.

I don't exactly have a problem with what Hilary did the last several days; Obama would have tried to get them seated too if he were leading. However, I do have an issue that Hilary didn't fight for it earlier right after the decision from DNC was made but only change her stand after realizing she was leading. That's not right. You either do it right from the get go or not do it at all and simply honor your word instead.

goodness. give it a rest. not even hillary supporters pay as much attention to her ups and downs as you do.

If Obama had 50% of the vote, would you be saying the same about him?

I'm sooo glad Rudy lost florida. Now go ahead and endorse McCain you ole fart.



The only thing she honors is whatever will get her power......by any means necessary.

when there are dogs after you trying to keep you down, that's what I would expect anyone to do. so, mute point.

If Obama had decided that he wanted the votes re-instated despite agreeing that they shouldn't count, and he was doing so only because he was ahead in the polls, then he wouldn't be the candidate that I'm supporting. So no, I wouldn't suddenly change my position just because it's good for my candidate.

McCain and Guiliani are very close.

Interestingly enough, if McCain did offer Rudy the VP, they create one hell of a ticket capable of reaching out to independents and strong on national security don't they?

I don't think McCain would pick Rudy for VP. Rudy has too much baggage and people have grown tired of him. It will probably be some governor somewhere. Would he take Romney?

McCain + Romney?!

Not if there going against Hillary. Lesser of two evils. Republicans would turn out in droves, especially since McCain now has said he wants to make Bush's tax cuts permanent.

And McCain + Romney has no chance, though I wouldn't really be opposed to it.

Yes, I would. I hold all the candidates to the same standard. For instance, I strongly disapprove of Obama's pandering to AIPAC. I also believe that Obama would not act as Hillary is acting. Yes, he would herald the "win", as all winners would, but I can't picture him flip-flopping on seating delegates.

With the current percentage at 51%-32%, Hilary will gain about 40 delegates if all 210 are reinstated.

Either way, I still think Obama is setting himself up nicely to be at least a strong VP candidate. Yes, the SC week made a Clinton/Obama ticket increasingly unlikely, but if Obama has say 1,500 delegates heading into the convention, Clinton has to consider the possibility. Otherwise, Obama will just need to wait 8 years like McCain did, and he will still only be 55.

But this thing is far from over yet.

Realistically, Guiliani isn't a VP candidate.

It's far more likely he gets a cabinet position, specifically the Attorney General spot.

Personally, McCain / Romney with Guiliani as AG? I'd be impressed, where do I sign up?

What is this fasination with Guiliani? He's just to polarizing for Republicans. He's even more Liberal than McCain on all fronts. I couldn't take it. I probably wouldn't even vote if he chose him. I feel confident McCain would pick someone with a profile but not in the headlines right now. C'mon, anybody know some good republican governors?

christ. Rommney is scary. and what the hell was that witht he crowd saying "no they haven't" as if saying amen in a mass. scary shit.

What if Hillary goes against McCain, loses. McCain takes office, and for a majority of his term he is stuck dealing with a recession.

Next election comes around ... Obama wins in a Clinton / Bush like battle.

Whatever cross-over appeal McCain has with Dems would evaporate with a Giuliani VP. No way he's going to take that chance.

Probably correct. Seems much more likely we see Guiliani as an AG.

That's not any better - and a good bit worse because unlike the VP, the AG has actual power. McCain needs to stay away from Giuliani entirely.
