The big news ignored by the media from PA Primary: 27% of GOP voters voted against McCain
he is the presumptive nominee and yet 27% of the 800,000 voters who voted the Republican line, more than 200,000 voted against him: 16% for Ron Paul and 11% for Hucklebee who is no longer a candidate. I think this guy is going to have some problems with his own party in November. Yet the media keeps just harping on the Dem race and how divided we are!

1. Translation: why are we worried about the Dem primary still going on?
McLame is awful...no way is he going to invigorate a demoralized right-wing nutjob wing of the Repuke party...they'll stay home.

2. Leaves out the Operation Chaos votes...
...sadly there is no way to count how many dittoheads turned out for rush's Operation Chaos so far.

That said, I have been saying for months now that baring tragedy or bfee imposed Marshall Law, a Democrat shall sweep into the White House in a landslide. TOO MANY of the electorate have felt bush's sting on their wallets, TOO MANY families have had to bury their son's and daughters and friends due to bush's blatant fiasco over in the Middle East and TOO MANY of the electorate are demanding CHANGE! If mcSame gets even 30% of the vote come November it will only be due to e-vote fraud!
