    McCain is scary.

    Dr. Juan Hernandez, McCain Hispanic outreach director: “We must not only have a free flow of goods and services, but also start working for a free flow of people.”

    BJALDER26,

    Look at your mama! Now that is what scary looks like!!! Rock On John McCain!!! Screw the Rombots!!!!

  4. bjalder26 Says:

    McCain has one issue he gets credit for. There’s one reason to vote for him, and that is national security. His open borders views will hurt our national security more than anything the other republicans could have done. There’s zero upside to McCain.

  10. E Dogg Says:

    I did not know DC awarded delegates. How many do they award?

  11. grandma T Says:

    #9 Yep and when it hits that will end it for McCain. However he will never be POTUS.

  12. QuacknHack Says:

    Huck lost to Paul and Guiliani. Hahahaha.

  13. CT Says:

    Hello President Hillary Clinton, we as the conservative base have helped in making your dream come true to be the first women president due to the fact that we wanted a perfcet candidate and couldn’t find one so instead we elected the media darling McCain which is just what all you dems wanted. We are so thankful for the opportunity to serve you and what ever you would like to give us in return is just fine. I’m with Ann Colter Hillary is better than McCain.

    Maine isn’t winner take all.

  15. Sean Says:

    DC awards 19 delegates.

  16. Jason Says:

    Straw polls re now cool.

  17. Chris Baker Says:

    I believe Maine Republicans send all their delegates as un-pledged rather than allocate them to candidates.

  18. pngrata Says:

    17 – all caucus or convention states technically send unpledged delegates. Yes, even Iowa and Nevada.

  19. pngrata Says:

    To get elected as a delegate though, you typically have to say who you support. An exception was Louisiana, where the non-candidate Pro-Life/Pro-Family slate of delegates won a controlling majority (i.e., if they stick together, they’ll appoint all of LA’s delegates), but weren’t openly favoring any candidate (I’ve heard they were pro-Fred but weren’t sure he’d be around).

  20. rick Says:

    I know Ron, Rudy, and Mike are way behind, but I think calling them “total unknowns” is going a little too far.

  21. Jeremy Pierce Says:

    D.C. has 19 delegates. The primary is Feb 12. They have 16 at-large delegates determined by the primary and 3 party-level delegates.

    They have electoral votes. Why wouldn’t they have delegates?
