Re: Super Tuesday
We didn't vote today Slim, that was a Republican Convention which we had no say in.

The majority of our Delegate points we awarded to Huckabee without a vote by the people.

We get to vote in March or April for a smaller amount of points awarded to whoever wins that.

I will say this, if Huckabee is the Republican nominee I will vote for him.

I'm a good old rebel,
Now thats just what I am,
And for this Yankee nation,
I do not give a damn.
I'm glad we fought against her,
I only wish we'd won.
I ain't asking any pardon for anything we've done.

Dak, what the heck happened in WV? Huckabee is claiming there wasn't a backroom deal, but how in the hell did he get 52% of the delegates, and McCain only 1%? Seems like there was some sort of deal. I don't know how you could vote for someone who clearly lies like that.

I can tell you right now, if Hillary doesn't take Connecticut it'll be a bigger upset than the Super Bowl.

The convention’s rules stipulated that in order for a candidate to win the convention, he needed to have a majority of votes. Delegates representing each county voted twice.

Romney won 41 percent during the first round to 33 percent for Huckabee. McCain won 16 percent, and Paul brought up the rear with 10 percent. Since no one had a majority, delegates voted a second time, with Paul eliminated.

Representatives of McCain’s and Paul’s campaigns urged their supporters to put their votes behind Huckabee. McCain’s goal was to stop Romney, his closest competitor in the national polls, from picking up momentum; Paul’s goal soon became clear.

As the Huckabee and Paul campaigns huddled, they reached an arrangement: Paul would throw his support to Huckabee in exchange for three of the 18 national delegates that Huckabee could claim with the victory.

“We struck a deal with the Huckabee people,” Edward Burgess, a spokesman for Paul’s campaign, told NBC affiliate WSAZ-TV of Huntington.

“They came to us and dealt with us honorably and with respect. And so we told them that if Dr. Paul didn’t make it through the first round, that we would go for their man,” Burgess said. “They pledged us three delegates to the Republican National Convention.” ]

McCain staffers, meanwhile, began parading around the hall carrying signs telling their delegates to vote for Huckabee.


So there was a deal made. All the major news site are reporting Huckabee won 18 delegates but he really only won 15. They gave 3 of those to the Paul campaign to get the Paul supporters votes.

The McCain supporters threw their support to Huckabee just so Romney would not win.
