The Friday before - Super Tuesday II

Who would have predicted that the complicated race for the Republican nomination would be complete, with John McCain firmly the winner, but that the Democrats would still be neck and neck going into Texas and Ohio on Tuesday? At least I'd like to meet that person!

Here are the stories I'm watching today, but the truth is, we're just waiting to see who Senator McCain will face in November.

Poll: McCain looking good in Florida, against either Hillary or Barack also Florida Hearts McCain

The Obama campaign has formally responded to the report on Canadian TV saying that a Canadian official claims a senior Obama person privately told him that Obama's anti-NAFTA talk on the stump was just "campaign rhetoric." So, he's for NAFTA or against NAFTA?

Contrary to popular opinion in the news media Republicans have a solid chance in November

Veep Sweepstakes for John McCain, who do you think the "maverick" will choose to face the democrats with him in November? (personally I like the long shot Sarah Palin but J.C. Watts or Kay Baily Hutchinson would be great too)

Barack tries to sound like a world leader, by suggesting that we dropped the ball in Afganistan, I guess now that Iraq is working, he needs to attack something or else he has to admit he was wrong all along.

President Bush (41) endorses John McCain

Obama supporter moves to McCain

From the Daily Dish

I am a lifelong Democrat and have been a strong Obama advocate--even donating
money for the very first time in my life. (And I am over 50.) Still, all
along, I thought, if Clinton gets the nomination, I'd vote for her over a
Republican. Especially after the past decade of the Republican
experience. However, after seeing Clinton in action in these past weeks
and at last night's debate (as well as Bill's "contributions"), I will never
vote for her. Never. If she gets the nomination, I will have to hope that McCain
is nominated and give him a good look.
While I have considerable disagreement
with him on a policy level, he is a man of integrity. (Mostly; but that's
another email.) Perhaps a McCain presidency balanced by a Democratic
Congress will serve the country well. But no matter the Republican
nominee, one thing is certain: I will not vote for Hillary. The
person who once bemoaned the politics of personal destruction now applies them
with stomach-turning zeal. Not to mention her well-crafted art of the
politics of distortion. No, that's not what I want for this country.
We've had enough of destruction, distortion and manipulation. Obama is a
breath of welcome fresh air. If the country does not see it, well, then I
suppose we'll "get what we deserve." Again.

New Editor

Hoosiers for McCain now has a new editor, Steve Dalton from Valparaiso. Steve also authors Porter County politics in Northwest Indiana, a site that previously endorsed John McCain for President.

Steve: "I'll continue the process of linking Hoosiers to the good news about John McCain ... His Honor and Heroic leadership".

Thanks for the opportunity
