Before I heard about Edwards,
and felt the grief, I thought the only thing I would post about today was the fact that McCain seemed to get so many votes. I'm sorry, this already stinks of being rigged. Did anyone else think he would do as well? Naturally, I don't pay that close attention to the rethugs, but when I saw the huge numbers, I was stunned in disbelief. It doesn't feel right, for a candidate that looks and acts like he doesn't have enough energy to get out of bed. He seemed almost like part of background for so long, and now this.

Okay, so do you think that McCain is the one the neocons have chosen to try to do "the math" with? Is he their guy?:scared:

1. I think it's reasonable that McCain came out ahead, given the other candidates

2. One reason this doesn't seemed "riggrd" to me is that the "riggers" seem to be mainly in Romney's
camp.

3. I don`t think they are so interested in McCain, as in his VP.
His VP will be the puppet master.

5. What I want to know is who is bankrolling the McCain camp? He should have...
been long out of money by now, so where is he getting the money to continue? Anyone think the Bush Admin. might be funding him?

7. I do, yeppir.
I think there was a time in 2004 when McCain was friends with both Kerry and Bush, and something happened within all those exchanges that led him over to the dark side. Really, you could almost see the difference in his face. I remember thinking that at the time. He wasn't totally happy with it, but he went along. Maybe this is what he went along with.
