McCain's the big winner

About 116,000 Rep voters (about 30,000 fewer voters than Lex’s generous model predicted yesterday) decided Huck’s the man. He finished about 10,000 votes ahead of second place finisher Mitt Romney. Using yesterday’s math, Huckabee’s margin of victory was .003% of Americans. Now the MSM is proclaiming Huck the man to beat and Romney dead in the water. Yes, 10,000 votes representing .003% of America can be described as an overwhelming victory by any standard.

I’m not so sure I’m ready to sign on with someone endorsed by the MSM, the National Education Association (Teacher’s Union) and E.J. Dionne Jr. but whose Conservative credentials are questioned by Rush Limbaugh and George Will.

My guy Fred Thompson finished slightly ahead of but in a virtual tie for third with McCain. McCain was the big winner. Here’s why:

Romney the leader in the early primary states has been knocked off by guy who realistically has no chance to win the nomination.

Rudy, the Rep national leader, didn’t contest Iowa, so was nowhere in the hunt.

The next state primary is New Hampshire, where guess what? Independents get to vote in whichever primary they want. I don’t think Conservatives – no matter what the MSM claims to contrary – think much of McCain for his assault on the First Amendment, support for open borders, anti-tax cut talk and oh yeah that Keating five thing. But Romney was damaged in Iowa. He’s in a dogfight in New Hampshire - not with Republicans but independents. Thompson has not caught on and Rudy is sitting it out until Florida.

All of this gives new life to John McCain.

So my top three guys in order, Thompson, Romney and Giuliani are already in trouble. Huckabee in my mind is a non-starter. So who is left to pick up the pieces? John I’m one of the politicians who takes the money I rail against McCain.

Some quick hits on the caucus:

I come to find out that the word “caucus” is derived from an Indian word meaning conference. The NCAA is now taking steps to ban any athletic team from a state holding a “caucus” from post season activities. In a statement released after the origin of the word was discovered, the NCAA said, “We think it’s outrageous that states would poke fun at our native Americans in such an insensitive manner.”

Some good news. We don’t have to listen to those pathetic “undecided Iowa voters” any more. Hey, I wouldn’t walk around wearing the word “undecided” like a badge of honor two hours before the election. First 90% of the “undecided” are liars. They’ve made up their minds but either like the attention or think “undecided” makes them look sophisticated. Hint, it makes you look like an indecisive moron. Which is what the other 10% who actually are “undecided” are…indecisive morons.

Bad news. We will be treated to four days of pathetic “undecided New Hampshire voters.” Who have the double indecisive moron whammy because not only do they not know who they will vote for but don’t even know which party they will vote for. And the MSM caters to these idiots as if they were prophets and/or oracles. How can these people be taken seriously? They are idiots.
