A new Survey USA poll was released today. They have McCain with 30%... Romney with 28%... Giuliani with 18%... and Huckabee with 14%.

Not looking good for Rudy...
It's looking like he is heading for a (not close) third or fourth place finish in Florida. From what I hear, he is very short on funds right now, and his fundraising has likely dried up substantially since he hasn't won since Iowa. I don't see how he can run an effective campaign for the Feb. 5 & March 5 states.

...granted, I'm one of the few who won't be seen walking around with those white earbuds (until they drop the price on the Touch, got that, Apple?). Of course, it's not like I'm not a complete corporate sellout in terms of a geek toy that I use for an MP3 player... mine is my PSP.
Of the "campaign promises", my favorites are #3 (heh) and #6 (yeah, I'm sticking up for somebody who shares my birthday, albeit 52 years prior).

we have 3 iPods and 2 iPhones between the 2 of us. And neither of us uses those earbuds (they're dreadful). We're Bose people.
We always see Obama with that brilliant grin but I don't see any evidence whatsoever of a sense of humor. Man what a stiff.
You may not be interested in war, but war is interested in you.
Dang, Obama always looks so good in pictures, but he was awfully stiff here.
I'm not sure anyone that I've ever seen doing these guest Top Tens look all that comfortable at all. It has to be something with the way they set it all up. The other person video tapes their lines...no interaction...just reading a script. That situation lends itself to poor performances.

For a while now, we have been complaining that the GOP does not reflect our conservative values. Want to know how to change that.
1 Vote conservative...push for the conservative GOP candidates.
2 Work for the organization. I had been considering this for a couple of years. Might as well make my political tendencies into a career. Lo and behold, I get this text message from the RNC this morning:
GOP is hiring! Tell your friends. gop.com/jobs
If only I had a political reference to give them, I could be involved in this from the inside. Oh well, since I don't know any politicians I'll continue to be a part of this community for change.
With today's GOP. The only consistent winners in the Bush administraton has been Neo-con or so-called Foreign Policy conservatives.
Misuse of the term Neocon in that way is diagnostic, and forbidden.
The comments you've made since prove the point yet again.
Preview Comment should be my friend.

If Romney had gotten NARAL's endorsement in any of his Massachusetts runs, he'd never have repudiated them, either. He sought their endorsement by being at and speaking to their events. Same with Planned Parenthood.

Dennis Kucinich has finally left the race for president. I can only surmise that the mother ship called and needed him back.
