No Runny Eggs

Yes, I’ve stated I’ll vote for McCain but that doesn’t mean I won’t still poke fun at him!

John McCain seems to be getting hooked by some of the nasty FEC regulations. After using the law to his advantage by gaining access to primaries without having to get signatures in each state, he now doesn’t like the imposition of the spending limits that come along with it.

The part of this that I find most ironic is that McCain’s attorney is claiming a constitutional right for McCain to back out of the FEC program.

Shouldn’t John McCain have worried about the the power that the FEC has and the consitutionality aspect before he muddled it further with McCain Feingold?

While participating in the live blogging of last night’s  Democrat debate, I kept thinking (in between the need to swallow the puke that kept filling my mouth following either candidate’s answer) that the differences between Hillary and Barack could be printed on the head of a pin in a 12 point font and still have room to print the New Testament alongside it.  

The only  difference  that the cadidates could gin up any kind of a debate about, was their particular brand of socialist healthcare.   They debated this issue with intensity as if they had 10 seconds left to decide whether the green or red wire needed to be cut to keep a nuclear explosion from destroying Austin!   All I could hear from it was that one wanted to use guns to force you to buy their socialist insurance and the other wanted to use BIG guns.

In general, the debate went on with the two candidates smiling, agreeing and giving each other platitudes.   Without knowing it at the time, Hillary summed up the evening and solidified her position as LOSER with the following quote:

“change you can Xerox.”

The only chance Hillary had of beating Barack was to create some actual difference between them. Without any difference, Barack wins hands down because he is imminently more likeable and has all the momentum. She didn’t create any difference, Barack and Hillary look to be “Change you can Xerox!”

Surprisingly, I’m not talking about Barack Obama, I’m talking about Mike Huckabee. In an interview this morning, Huckabee claims that he will stay in the race, suprise McCain in Texas and Ohio, and force a deadlocked convention.

According to Real Clear Politics MCcain currently has 975 delegates. 1,191 delegates are required for the nomination. Romney has said that he wants his delegates to vote for McCain. Romney has 272 delegates. Doesn’t that put him over the top?

OK, so let’s say that Romney’s folks don’t follow the leader. McCain is leading polls by double digits in Texas, Ohio and Pennsylvania. A total of 302 delegates are available in these states. Is any clear thinking person believing that McCain doesn’t have this thing wrapped up? A total of 875 delegates are yet to be settled, does anyone think McCain won’t get at least 25% of those?

I’ve said it before, Huckabee is staying in this thing for his ego. He changes his reasoning following each primary to fit some new delusional view of how the world might be. If Mike is able to craft personal delusions for a losing cause as a nominee, what kinds of delusions do you think he could live in if he was faced with a serious security threat to the US? Is this the type of thinking we would want for the man that has his finger on “the button?”
