Mitt.

Ya, what he said

I’m voting for Mitt

I voted for Mitt at 6:10AM in NY...anyone hearing anything on early returns?

Remember this when you go to the polls.

lol wut?

Good move, Charles. A vote for McCain is a vote for McCain, and a vote for Huckabee is a vote for McCain. A vote for Ron Paul? Well, let's just say we'd have to put you in the room next to Britney Spears.

My decision today is clear. I can't say the same for that fateful day in November.

Good call, Charles- go Mitt!

I say vote for sHillary or Hussein...At least when their Liberal policies blow up, the Republicans won't be blamed for it. (Actually they will...ahh the wonders of a mostly liberal media...) And maybe the Repubs will come up with a better (read: more Conservative) candidate than McBain....

MENDOZA!

even if, in my dreams, I know the truth.

With John McCain, the respect goes one way- I have to respect him, but he does not respect me. That's unacceptable.
I think Mitt understands the threat we face very well.
I believe he'll have the best military advisors available, and he'll listen to them. He's able to make hard decisions.
I'm voting for Mitt.

What was the quote, something like: "...this is a giant shit sandwich and we're gonna have to open up and take a big bite..."

/Yeah...

Go Mitt Go!

It seemes the lizard army agrees with your choice, Charles

If you vote for McAnmesty it is the same as a vote for almost every Dem policy.

re: #13 Ward Cleaver

...arghhh....

I certainly feel your dilemma. I think you made the right decision.

Charles,

If you're voting Republican in California, then this is the only vote that will count as Hillary or Obama will surely win the state come November.

If Hillary is the Democrat choice for November, I think even McCain would win because many people would barf at the thought of Bill back in the White House.

Of course she could divorce him. It would take my breath away.

Charles,

That is the only vote a sensible thinking person is making today.

The press shills for McCain because he is the more acceptable candidate for them. Listen to the msm, and you would think that the primaries were over. Same thing for the Dhimmis, really; their shilling for Obama should embarrass any objective journalist.

My wife voted for McCain, I couldn't talk her out of it.

She's impressed by his military service and she thinks he's honest.

...yeah, McCain plays to the ignoratti well...the way he plays off (of) his war hero status is unbecoming a president, let alone a Senator...that and he lies to get elected, among a bunch of other "political" behaviour chosen over leadership behaviour, behaviour among *many* bad behaviours make him persona non grata...

blah blah blah

I feel your pain, Charles.
I felt, during the early debates, "if only we could have a composite candidate, with bits of Rudy, Mitt, John, Huck, Tom, Duncan and all in him."
But I know it was a pipe dream.
I held onto my absentee ballot till a few days ago, not wanting to throw my vote away on someone who dropped out.
(Glad I did.)
But Mitt was the choice I made, too.
Not perfect, just the best under the present circumstances.

I just voted for Mitt a couple hours ago.

McCain has too often shown the contempt he has for the American voter. Romney gets my reluctant vote.

"Vote Satan 2008: Why settle for the lesser evil?"

re: #35 Ringo the Gringo

My condolences.

Has to be Mitt. Sadly, Rudy and Hunter were still listed on my ballot, teasing me with what shall never be...

re: #26 Ojoe

I think it will be close but Hillary will pull it out because Republican turnout will be low. The MSM will be shilling for Hillary all the way "a historic choice" independent women will break solidly for Hillary and other independents will be turned off by McCain's age and will end up sitting out. I think they learned from South Carolina and will keep Bill under wraps, the guy has been practically invisible since then.

As well the news in Iraq will get bad with a new terrorist "surge" further motivating Dem's to vote and depressing Republican turnout.

re: #42 Orbit Rain

McCain was a good soldier. Horrible leader.

I graduated from college in 1979, right at the height of Jimmy Carter's recession. It was not a fun time.
No way I'd vote for a Dem incompetent - they do too much damage.
But this year it looks like we're going to get another nitwit.

We do not have any caucus or primary here in North Carolina, but I still spent the night with nightmares of Hilairy (yes, she is an accomplished liar) Clinton going through my head.

I would love to see Romney as our candidate, but believe me, compared to Obama or (G-d forbid) Clinton, McCain comes out way ahead in my book.

re: #25 Ringo the Gringo

Charles,

If you're voting Republican in California, then this is the only vote that will count as Hillary or Obama will surely win the state come November.

I don't know. I suspect that in the general election, Obama's comments favoring driver's licenses for illegals might not resonate with the majority of voters here. Latinos do represent about 25% of the electorate in California, but really they feel the negative effects of the illegals more than the rest of us!

I voted for Mitt in early voting in Georgia last week, as did the other three eligible voters in my household. My daughter has been volunteering for him and went to his rally in Atlanta yesterday. He's not perfect, but I'm pretty sure he's not going to sell us out to Mexico like McCain wants to.

Ummm, did anyone really expect the Grateful Dead to be doing benefit concerts for the Duncan Hunter campaign?

re: #63 Ben Hur

re: #32 uriaheep

I am voting for Pat Paulson.

My favorite Pat Paulsen sketch is where Pat's car breaks down in the snow, and he goes up to a house, shivering, to knock on the door to get help. Who answers the door? Hubert Humphrey.

Humphrey lets Pat in (who's practically hypothermic), then yells out something like, "Muriel, would you get Mr. Paulsen a nice cold glass of lemonade?"

“The last time hope was in the air, it was ended by a bullet PALESTINIAN,” Weir said, referring to Robert F. Kennedy, who was assassinated on the night he won the California Democratic primary in 1968. “We’ve been reluctant to do political events all along.”

re: #65 LeftJustAintRight

Don't forget Mad Max Reiker.

I'm out of there back to work.

The fact that NPR this morning featured a piece, under the wafer-thin guise of reporting on the new LDS leadership, emphasizing widespread distrust of Mitt Romney because he's a Mormon should tell you everything you need to know.

If you won't demand a completely new slate of candidates from the Republican party, then vote out the Beltway incumbent, who is John Sidney McCain.

Same here - Mitt. Since Hunter was swept under the rug by the McCain/liberal-loving media, and he was the nearest to what the Republic had in mind in the first place, it's settle on Mitt for the primary. He seems to have the least amount of dangerous-for-the-Republic baggage. The general will be the sticky wicket all right. If it's McCain, I just can't see myself making my mark by the name of the man who has hired Juan Hernandez as an advisor. And he did this what - 2 days after stating he's seen the light about us wanting the border closed? Hires the creep who sings one of the lead parts in the "No fence/No border - the U.S. is Mexico, you must obey Vicente" opera!

re: #68 Occasional Reader

yes, they could have a Grateful Dead concert and an NRA rally at the same time.....well, maybe that would not be a good idea......

re: #61 Roger

Santorum has nothing good to say about McCain. He thinks McCain sold out the party on the Gang of 14 and pretty much every other issue across the board.

I'm not surprised you drank the Faux news Kool-aid and voted for a neo-con. Ron Paul is the only person who can save the Earth. Charles is an illuminati agent and co-conspirator to the 9/11 inside job.

Re: Above comment. I don't think I like that new option you've added to the website.

You did the right thing. We're screwed either way... illegals will continue to flood over the border with all these clowns. I know McCain has bought into the global warming scam big-time, but I'm unsure of Romney's stance.

Voted for Romney and all his delegates and alternate delegates from my district this morning. Will I lose sleep? No. I do this sans reservations.

If you vote in Illinois, be sure to vote for the candidates delegates, not just for the candidate himself.

Just got back from voting here in Burbank. Lots of turnout.

Mostly Dems and outright moonbats.

small gripe: 10 booths = 8 for Dems and 2 for Republicans. I guess they know the score better than I do since I just moved here.

Voted for Romney. Juan McCain is too bat-shit Kennedy/La Raza crazy.

But I also wore my Fred Thompson T-Shirt in honor of what might have been:

FRED
Kill the Terrorists
Protect the Borders
Punch the Hippies

I also wore my bright orange Club Gitmo baseball cap.

I'm no Sam Adams, but I get my point across.

I just got back from voting here in CA. I walked into the polling place; they asked for my name. "John MacLean", I answered. (cuz that's my name) The emaciated college geek at the machine Laughed. Out. Loud. Deliberate. Forced. Mocking. And did I say, Loud?
"MacLean", I repeated to the woman at the desk, "Like the guy in the Die Hard movie."

I got my ballot. Romney's name was buried in the middle of about 15 other candidates, including Rudy, Fred, Brownback, Ron Paul, and a few I hadn't even heard of.
When I went to put the ballot in the machine, I crowded up close to the little bastard, invading his space as best I could. I made a point of making eye contact. I didn't have to fake the glare that curdled sunshine. The sneer was extra at no charge.
Welcome to election year 08. My second one here at LGF. God help us all.

I just voted for Mitt Romney.

I will not stay home in November, staying home in November IS a vote for the socialist/leftist anti-Americans, staying home is a vote for possibly 3 left of Ginsberg justices.

No way!

I guess I'm voting Obama.

good choice, i made the fateful decision several weeks ago, i can't stand the thought of "the Straight Talk Express" leading the country, or representing the GOP for that matter, uuuggghh

Big empty space on the ballot where Duncan Hunter should have been. Threw up in my mouth a little bit and clicked on the Romney delegates (shiver).

Parking lot was full - had to wait nearly 10 minutes for a space. Feared the worst (this is Illinois and I was anticipating hordes of wild eyed Obamamaniacs), but all four precincts voting in the same room were - EMPTY! Kindergarten registration had taken up all the parking spaces in the municipal building’s two lots. No one was voting.

At least I did my part to defeat Dick Durbin (voted for Sauerberg
for the Senate seat).

Since Nov 2006 it has seemed likely that the next President would be a Democrat- and that was before Obama became a rock star.

I don't know why you would believe McCain is more likely to lead to a Democrat Presidency. No one has held a gun to the voters to date- and today to get them to choose McCain. Even with all that Romney seems to have going for him, he just does not sell. There is not a State Bush lost that he would win and there are States Bush won that he would lose.

McCain at least has a shot. And if a national security event occurs prior to Nov, a great shot.

If national security is the primary determinant when choosing a President- and I believe it should be absolutely- McCain has a distinct advantage in the coming race.

Flame away.

I voted for Mitt. I was 2nd in line and the guy ahead of me, a Republican, had to try to vote for a Democrat which is not permitted in this state. So the machine that's way older than I am broke. They had to call and ask how fix it. Very entertaining and took my mind off the stomach churning possibility that either Hillary or Barry will get in.

Well, since you mention it, NYC did have a run of 80+ years where we got all kinds of cool parades (from the moon landings to the Yanks winning, and winning some more (and more and more and more still) and you got to watch. We're just sharing the love...

re: #117 dm50462

Big empty space on the ballot where Duncan Hunter should have been. Threw up in my mouth a little bit and clicked on the Romney delegates (shiver).

Parking lot was full - had to wait nearly 10 minutes for a space. Feared the worst (this is Illinois and I was anticipating hordes of wild eyed Obamamaniacs), but all four precincts voting in the same room were - EMPTY! Kindergarten registration had taken up all the parking spaces in the municipal building’s two lots. No one was voting.

At least I did my part to defeat Dick Durbin (voted for Sauerberg
for the Senate seat).

Thank you brave one--No shivering! Mitt took on the Kennedy-Kerry Massachusetts machine, that took some guts.

re: #157 tripster

re: #53 inkling

My suggestion for a Romney motto is "Vote for Mitt -- the best of what's left!"
(My original suggestion, "Mitt Romney: The Other White Meat", never caught on)

In the general election, it can be "Vote for Mitt - do you want {Osama or Hildemort, whoever wins the dhimmi nomination} in the White House?"

What honors McCain won for himself as a POW he has since pissed away as a two-bit politician, just another Washington DC whore. He will not receive any respect from me. Piss on him and the msm bandwagon he rode in on!

Charles, you spend too much time around the (frankly) anti-Mexican wing of the base. It's the moderates who have always decided elections, and McCain can win them.

For those of you who are going 'round calling him "McShamnesty", yep, I'd have to say he's for amnesty. However, amnesty - in conjunction with upping the border patrol, as McCain espouses - is the best damn way to solve the crisis.

Look at it this way: Who's more likely to pay taxes, to learn English and assimilate into American society, to report the criminals and terrorists in their midst, to feel loyalty towards their host country? The guy with the green card, or the guy looking warily over his shoulder at every turn, fearing that every native-born American he meets will send him back into poverty-ridden Mexico?

Stone the unfaithful monkey!

If John McCain is the nominee, we’re going to have at least four years of a Democrat in the White House

Sorry Charles, every national poll I've seen shows that McCain does much better against Hillary and Obama than Romney does. Yes, yes, they are just polls, and they've been wrong before. But in this increasingly divided electorate, independents just keep getting more and more power. And McCain has independent appeal like none of the other 3 have (Obama has some, arguably, but Hillary is still the likely Dem candidate).

That said, I'm pulling the lever for Mitt, because I just plain like him more, but if the primary question is, "who can beat the Dems in November", I'm really not sure why the Lizard King has counted McCain out. None of the numbers support such a position.

Delusional hope: I go to vote and fred and rudy are there to chose from. Reality: To hell with all these candidates. I refuse to eat this fly infested foul smelling sanwich.

If the voted turn out is historically low, maybe GOP will rethink their choices, and do it over?

This isn't like the commercial for eharmony where you match 50 compatibility points (or some random number) to find someone perfect. This isn't a soul mate search..........yuck. It's more like MOOSECRIMP and that's fine with me. Hope Mitt is still a contender in March when I vote.

My opinion on john mccain runs far deeper than amnesty. In fact- I haven't liked the man (as a politician) since I realized I was a Republican. This man is no Republican- he's not a conservative by any stretch of the imagination. And frankly, if the so-called base of the Republican Party, the hard core Republicans, nominates this man- I'll seriously reconsider spending time working for the party.

Your assuming that someone who breaks our laws to get here and violates scores of other laws to gain employment, get a bank account and a social security number, will in the somehow magically gain respect for said laws and citizenship once they are granted them with a penstroke. Yeah I agree all those Mexican flags I see in peoples cars and in the immigration rallies will dissapear overnight once they are granted citizenship.

Yes, delusional hope. Head-in-sand too.

West Virginia posted its initial results. Mitt came in first, Huckabee several points behind at second. However, no one candidate received over 50% of the vote, so they have to vote again.

Hillary is a Lump.

Well done, Charles. I myself supported Fred with my money (didn't get a chance to vote for him before he dropped out), at least you get a chance to register your disapproval of McCain.

Remember, everyone: we're not forced to choose McCain in a primary election. If we have to vote for him in the general, so be it; but the primary is different, and every vote today is more important than any primary vote in decades.

This lifetime Republican says he would never vote for McCain.
Bob Dole says Bob Dole would vote for him, though.

President Joe once had a dream

So he told them his scheme for a saviour machine

Its logic stopped war, gave them food
How they adored till it cried in its boredom

please dont believe in me, please disagree with me
Life is too easy, a plague seems quite feasible now
Or maybe a war, or I may kill you all

Dont let me stay, dont let me stay
My logic says burn so send me away
Your minds are too green, I despise all Ive seen
You cant stake your lives on a saviour machine

I need you flying, and Ill show that dying
Is living beyond reason, sacred dimension of time
I perceive every sign, I can steal every mind

Quien es el mass media machine que McCain? He's got 30 years angling for influence in Washington DC and ON TV.

I don't really think of it in terms of strategy or parties. For me it's "Which of these six people do you want to be President"?

Romney - Underconfident, yet somehow weasely businessman.
McCain - Showboating, egotistical Demopublican shamnesty psycho.
Hillary - Statist, closet Maoist with a mile-wide jackboot streak and man issues.
Obama - Statist, naive establishment Democrat with a cabinet full of Jew-haters, passing himself off as something different (! LOL).
Huckabee - Showboating Demopublican preacher man.
Ron Paul - Nuts.

Romney is the least repulsive out of all of them. It's a simple choice.

Voting for Mitt is a good thing, those who think it's not a good thing have been probably reading AP, NY Times, Boston Globe, and watching too much CNN, NBC News, MSNBC, etc.

So anyone who breaks the law is by definition scum by your book, no matter that the laws are patently unjust and breaking them is about the only way to provide a livelihood for your family? And you don't relize those illegal immigrants who break the just laws, the ones against crimes with victims rather than beneficiaries, escape justice because the people who would inform on them broke said unjust laws? (Upping the legal immigration quota would really help there - sadly, the only candidates I've seen mention that one are Obama and Huckabee.)

Judging Mexicans by the Aztlan douchebags is like judging black people by Louis Farrakhan. And if the Aztlan douchebags hurt someone, that's when we deal with them, rather than preemptively assuming every single Mexican is one of them.

re: #164 Bard With all due respect, there is no "anti-Mexican" wing or part of LGF or the Republican Party. There is a LARGE part of LGF and the Republican Party that is against illegal immigration.
But I don't like McCain because of McCain- Feingold (a/k/a "McCain's Apology for the Keating Five"), his long time habit of voting across the aisle and his friendships and political work with Teddy Kennedy and John Kerry. Plus he hasn't got a CLUE about domestic problems such as the Recession we are going into.

LGF Poll: How many lizards have a regular phone land line

Me.
I do not even own a cell phone.

Finally gave in and got a pre paid cell... three people have the number, wife, day care and a disabled co-worker who calls when she needs help. 30 minutes a month and have time left over.

#228 Charles

Right on. I'd remind people that the head-to-head polls showed Carter steamrolling Reagan, and Ronny and Mondale coming in close.

Don't worry LGF when McShamnesty goes thru and 20 million illegals get to vote, you won't need to worry. Demonrat after Demonrat

re: #237 uriaheep

Why is it lately we have to vote against someone and not for someone?

Because decent, capable men and women are too smart to run for office.

re: #222 Pawn of the Oppressor

why do you say "weasley businessman"

McCain is an asshole, he's really consistant on that.

Hiya lizard buddies! (so much time passes between my comments that I always feel that I have to greet everyone)

Anyone know a good website with some pretty up to date exit polls? or should I just defer to cnn?

Um, Charles - how about a post polling LGFer's on their choices TODAY and possible votes on probable match-ups on Election Day?
Or even just a new thread about anything?!

re: #242 jcm

It's a miracle people lived and were well before they could have a phone stuck to their face 24-7.
bah.

I don't know about The Revolution, but, the election will be televised. That being the case, I cannot imagine Ol' Liver Spots (McCain) winning against Obama.

And, I'm not looking forward to President Obama. I expect his foreign policy will make Jimmy Carter look like a warlord- there won't be a 2-bit bully anywhere who won't realize that this president will not use military force. For anything, at any time, for any reason.

And if his Chicago political background is any guide, we can expect his domestic politics to be old-school, big-entitlement Liberalism-- as indicated by his ties to ACORN, and other successors of the old welfare-rights movements.

The irony is, his campaign keeps talking about "change," yet, objectively, there's nothing new here- just another old-school Democrat like Dukakis, or Mondale.

For all that, his ability to project his personality is just off the charts. Against a weak candidate like McCain, it'll be enough to take him to the White House.

re: #182 Charles

It's not that he's a democrat, it's that he is a "maverik" who does his own thing regardless of whether it is good for the country. Look at McCain-Feingold, McCain-Kennedy, McCain-etc, the gang of 14, the list goes on. His record stands for itself. Since he lost the bid in 2000 he's thrown a shit fit and made the republicans suffer for it.

People complain about Bush being hard to handle and won't do what the msm wants. Well, when McCain won't do what the msm wants (which may be a rare occurence since he likes to toe the democrat line on a lot of issues) we'll see him throw his famous tantrums.

What will happen when he meets with other world leaders and has a disagreement? Will he blow up at them, insulting them, throwing vulgarity and profanity at them, all because he has anger management issues? What will happen when he meets with Russia's soon to be ex-president and soon-to-be PM Putin and they disagree? Putin may simply put the brash idiot in a judo lock and then we'd be involved in a hot war.

I've seen McCain's record, his temper, and his stances and I find them lacking. I simply don't trust him on anything.

I will be voting for Mitt today.

And an email I got fro the John McCain campaign.

Today, California voters will help pick our next commander in chief. It is an important responsibility that you shoulder with insight, thoughtfulness and respect, and I want to encourage you to vote today, February 5th. To get more information about our team, please click here or email my team at california@johnmccain.com.
The issues at stake in this election are enormous. Our country is fighting a global war against radical Islamic extremism. Our government has lost the people's trust and confidence. The values we share as a nation, the values that have kept us strong for over 200 years, are being re-shaped through unwarranted judicial activism. While Americans struggle with these burdens, Washington politicians bicker among themselves to grab the slightest short-term political advantage, putting the priorities of the nation on hold.

I have had the great honor of serving our country all my adult life. I have never lived a day, in good times or bad, when I was not grateful for the privilege. Now, I ask for your support and the opportunity to serve again - this time as your president.

As thousands of California's sons and daughters risk their lives to defend us, our purpose cannot be ours alone. America is our cause; her greatness our hope, her strength our protection, her goodness the hope of mankind.

That is why I run for president, because the greatest days of our great nation lay ahead. I have the experience, the knowledge and the courage to make the tough decisions and I ask for your vote and support in today's election.

Sincerely,
John McCain

Then man touts his Military Service more than his almost Running Mate, John Kerry.

Ask McCain's first wife how good he was at keeping his pants on around other women when he was a Squadron Commander in JAX.

re: #235 BengalsFan

I've given up on California mostly because of Governor Steroid. He is an absolute jackass.

"I don't know about you, but I'm impatient with those Republicans who, after the last election, rushed into print saying we must broaden the base of our party, when what they meant was to fuzz up and blur even more the differences between ourselves and our opponents." -- Ronald Reagan

Lessons from the past have not been learned.

re: 230 mandymanners,

God bless you.

re: #215 Lizard by the Bay

re: #192 Canadian Guy

McCain's people had discussions with John Kerry about him being his running mate in 2004.

As I recall, that was Kerry's wet dream, it was the Kerry team who made the gesture, and McCain who flatly turned it down.

McCain may not be in the Democratic party but he sure wants to be.

He's had untold chances to switch, and never has. He's never even been close to being as liberal as other Senate "Republicans" like Snowe, Chafee, and Specter.

Look, there's already plenty of real things to bash McCain on. Do we really need to make shit up, too?

None less then Tom Daschle stated that McCain's chief of staff approached him about the possibility of McCain jumping out of the Republican party (probably to an Independent) when the Dem's went out after Chaffee and Jeffords to regain the Senate. Jeffords went so McCain wasn't needed. However it was MCCAIN'S people who went to Daschle while Daschle's people went after Jeffords and Chaffee....

Not making up stories....McCain is a Democrat in Republican clothing....(Back when he became a Rep. it was possible to be a conservative Democrat. But remember he was running from the position of son-in-law to a lot of money)

LGF Poll: How many lizards have a regular phone land line

Only a landline here.

#249 bosforus

We won't have exit polls for a while, and even then be cautious: Bush was predicted to lose to Kerry based on the '04 exit polls.

Anyway, I usually just watch Fox or CNN if I want to catch up on them. I haven't yet found a good website.

re: #233 americanpundit

The irony here? McCain voted with the same people you just mentioned, voting against the Right. Chafee on tax cuts, Specter on Immigration, and is a member of the Gang of 14 along with Snowe.

Wow, you mean McCain made a deal that prevented a nuclear option that would have stripped the current Republican Senate minority of their ability to filibuster? How dare he?

If a Dem is sworn in next January (very possible), and the Senate stays in their hands (very likely), you should get down on your hands and knees and kiss John McCain's sagging butt-cheeks for making that deal. Unless you like Obama's choices for the 7th Sharia Distrcit Court rammed down our throats without discussion.

To paraphrase Al Bore:

He played on our Hopes!

/sorry couldn't help it. I'm very disappointed in Rudy for dropping out and then endorsing McCain.

I believe your most important vote today is on the Gambling and Term limit propositions.
