I FEEL LIKE I’M BACK IN HIGH SCHOOL…

First, I can’t do math. McCain‘s delegates plus all of Romney‘s delegates (assuming they go for McCain) equals 1,123, not 1,191. Close, but not all the way. Second, Mike Huckabee says that Romney is just giving in to peer pressure to be in with the cool kids. And finally, here’s McCain with his new Romney-‘do. […]

ROMNEY TO ENDORSE MCCAIN.

Mitt Romney is set to endorse John McCain this afternoon, and to ask his delegates to swing their support to him. If they all do, McCain will have enough delegates to win the GOP nomination.

HUCKABEE TO DOBSON: YOU’RE JUST THINKING ABOUT YOURSELF.

In response to In response to James Dobson’s repeated statements, including yesterday’s, that he would not under any circumstances vote for John McCain, Mike Huckabee retorted this morning that Dobson, Rush Limbaugh and others who are slamming McCain are egomaniacal self-promoters. (OK, I’m paraphrasing, but that’s the gist, and really, who could disagree?) About anyone […]
