Yessiree!

Just voted. Thinking of taking my son to a caucus tonight for the experience.

My wife and I just got back from attending our first caucus and will be going to the county convention later this month.

Well, I voted. I just want to say, though, that **** and ******** **** ****** ** *****. Then ***** **** ****** **********. So, I voted ************** *** for ****** ******.

There was no line for the Dems, but a long line for the Reps. I was glad to see my candidate's name still on the ballot so I didn't have to vote for one of those who are still running. I'd rather uphold my values and integrity, than concede to the majority's choice.

Voted this morning.

No line on the Republican side....There was a line on the Democtratic side. Interesting how a close race will bring out more supporters. Of course maybe it was sneaky Republicans trying to throw of the Dems ....

Thats what I did!

I couldn't make up something so crazy. Only the Democratic party does it that way, the Republican party gives the winner of each state all of that state's delegates.

CAVEAT: This is not political but primary rules. It is not to endorse or slam any candidate.

That is not correct. The parties in each state set their own rules. The Republicans split their delegates between the contenders sometimes and at other times it is winner take all, according to each state's party rules. Some states hold primaries and some hold caucuses. Some are winner take all, others are split by percentages or by a caucus afterwards.

A few examples are:

South Carolina gave Mc 19 delegates and Huckabee 5.
Wisconsin gave Mc 31 and Huckabee 3.
Tennessee gave Huckabee 24 and Mc 20.

Yawn. They all lie. It's not worth my time or effort, especially since ALL the candidates blow this year.

Hello...
The troops are not coming home
gas prices are not going down
we are not getting any tax cuts or relief
medical costs are not going down


I think I'll go hog hunting instead.

Got a good laugh out of that. At least you have chosen to have a positive out look.

I think Congress is the one we really need to concentrate on. I think they've been plagued with tunnel vision for the past 7 years instead of working on the full spectrum of legislation.

But, the hog hunting do sound good...

BINGO. The way people talk and act you would think we were under a dictatorship.

Oh man, I just agreed with a Roothawg....what's next.......a Spooner?
