1. how about two shiny nickels that it'll be

Clinton v. Huckabee in the General.

The repuglican party HATES McCain with a passion (his wins in NH and SC were due to Independent voters and not repuglicans) and the majority of the contests left are, I believe, Closed Primaries so Independents won't be able to cross over and vote.

4. That's why I see McCain coming out on top

He's a favorite with independents and Republicans who dislike the far right of the party.

5. not even a chance. Huckabee

is sinking like a stone in ALL the polls. He is virtually out of money and there's already speculation that he's out if he doesn't do well in FL. McCain may not be a favorite, but the powers that be in the repub party find him a lot more acceptable than Huck. It'll be either McCain or Romney.

But it will almost certainly be Clinton. And she can beat both of them.

2. I think many agree with this. As an Obama Supporter I really

don't have a horse in that race. The Black vs Brown issue that HRC's camp brought up still offends me and I can't forgive that. I hate to say it even tho I think McCain would want us in a 100 year war... I think McCain is the lesser of two evils :(

3. I woul;d bet on Romney before Huckabee

I think even fundies think he is ultimately unelctible and that he is prone to putting his foot in his mouth a little too much.

He is going to get hammered in Boca.

6. This post reminds me of a local expression

inspired by those who did not have English as a mother tongue.

"How much ya wanna make a dollar bet. . .?"
