Voting McCain Today

Voting McCain today, because I don't have much of a preference on the Dem side. So if it comes down to McCain vs. Hillary or Obama, I won't be all that excited, but at least I won't have to worry about Romney.

me too. voted at 7:45 this morning on the way to work in the rain. bleh. thank god i only vote 2 1/2 blocks away from my house.

when i got to the train and took it into south station (a commuting hub for those who aren't familiar with Boston), there was like the battle of the democrats outside the exit, with all these Hillary supporters and all these Obama supporters standing next to eachother. it was kinda funny.


funnier still when i said I already voted republican. the looks on some of the fat men who were hillary supporters was pure incomprehension.

I thought it was hilarious McCain's people all went for Huckabee in West Virginia so Romney wouldn't get it.

I thought it was pretty pathetic and undermines the point of the election process.

Romney camp accuses McCain, Huckabee of shady West Virginia deal By Sam Youngman Posted: 02/05/08 03:35 PM [ET]

Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney’s campaign accused Sen. John McCain (Ariz.) and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee of “a backroom deal” that gave the early Super Tuesday win in West Virginia to Huckabee.

Romney, who addressed the state GOP convention in person Tuesday, comfortably led the first ballot at the convention, leading to a three-way second ballot contest between the three contenders.

Marc Ambinder of The Atlantic reported Tuesday that, after the first ballot, McCain’s campaign called his supporters there and urged them to vote in favor of Huckabee.

“Unfortunately, this is what Senator McCain’s inside Washington ways look like: he cut a backroom deal with the tax-and-spend candidate he thought could best stop Governor Romney’s campaign of conservative change,” Beth Myers, Romney’s campaign manager, said in a statement.

I voted McCain too. Unfortunately, Mitt Romney won my state. There was a hell of alot of Ron Paul supporters in the room... the non-Paul people banded together to elect a slate of delegates. I was one of them, so now I move onto the district convention where I hope to be elected a district/state delegate.

Did you hear the McCain speech today?

It was very encouraging if he can live up to it!
