I thought I'd pushed my whole stack in on Obama over on the Democrat side, but the system tells me I've still got 25 chips to play with, so I reckon I'll take a flyer on Fred Thompson at long odds.
(Btw, the automated spell-check apparently doesn't think much of "Obama." Perhaps it'll change its attitude once it's President Obama.)
Where do I sign..?
good article on McCain here: washingtonpost.com
For the moment, McCain is back among the front runners. The donations are flowing again, and he claims a far better organization in South Carolina than when Bush beat him there in 2000. Perhaps as important, McCain has learned a small degree of restraint. He has no plans to mention the "Death Star" this time, or to label evangelical leaders "agents of intolerance."
"Yeah, I don't think we'll go into that," he says.
Instead, he's looking ahead, criticizing the "naive" foreign policy views of Obama and describing himself as a "steady hand on the tiller" in unstable times.
As if to reinforce the point, an aide hands McCain a BlackBerry so he can read a report about a near-confrontation in the Straits of Hormuz between U.S. and Iranian ships. Without pausing, McCain, who once sang the words "Bomb Iran" to the tune "Barbara Ann," dictates a measured statement about "the nature of the Iranian regime."
Time's Carney interrupts. "Shouldn't we just bomb them?"
"First," McCain replies, "we ought to broadcast that Beach Boys song."
Didn't Sam Brownback drop out? Now that would be a flyer.
yup, sorry. i've tried to edit him out but it won't let me...Originally Posted by toong tao daeng
i'll post a notice at the top
More importantly, Bush's team won't be "push polling' that McCain had fathered an illegitimate child.
I cannot even attempt to call it. Open race at the momnt.We have one for the Democratic party so why not the GOP?

Romney wins Michigan primary, blasts GOP race wide open
Gordon Trowbridge / Detroit News Washington Bureau
Mitt Romney won a crucial victory in Tuesday's Michigan Republican presidential primary, defeating John McCain and Mike Huckabee with a message of optimism for the state's ailing economy.
With 95 percent of precincts counted, Romney -- the Oakland County-reared son of a popular Michigan governor -- lead McCain by a margin of 39 percent to 30. Mike Huckabee had 16 percent.
"Tonight is a win for optimist over Washington-style pessimism," Romney told a cheering crowd at a Southfield hotel where he had awaited the results.
Romney wins Michigan primary, blasts GOP race wide open
Is the betting really open until April 1st? I'm new to this....can the odds change?
yup. if people don't want to wait i can cancel the event and make it into a poll?
I think for the Democrats, we'll know by April, 1st.
The GOP is hard to call.
As for Mcain, He's a 72 year old, Neo-Con.
But he is a moderate, and has criticized the GOP leaders, which I like.
If McCain gets more legs, and does well on Feb 5th, and choose a good running mate down the road as VP. It could get interesting.
Side-note: McCain would have been good in 2000, but GWB used racist push-polling in South Carolina and GWB's victory in South Carolina hurt McCain's campain.
The conditions now, 8 years later, are very different, of course.
