Not me. I still have another month until my primary. And down here you have to be registered by party to vote.

I still need to get my registration straight. Virginia has a way of losing things in the shuffle.

this is from the va. board of elections.

3. Do I need to register with a party in order to vote in the presidential primaries to be
held Tuesday, February 12th?
No. The Commonwealth of Virginia does not require you to register by party affiliation
when registering to vote. Virginia holds open primaries. This means that you may vote
in either the Democratic Primary or the Republican Primary, but not both.

When you go to the polls on Election Day, if qualified to vote, you will be asked if you
want the Democratic ballot or the Republican ballot. You will then be given the ballot
you requested.
4. Where do I go to vote?
You vote in your normal polling place. If your normal polling place is in a

Truth be told...I am becoming more and more impressed with Huckabee over the past two weeks. If he was electable nationally, I would even perhaps jump on board. The problem, in my not so humble opinion, is he is not a national candidate, thus I am supporting McCain...
...and supporting him by voting for Obama tomorrow.

agree with fumble about huck not being a national candidate. i have no problem with huck, but at this point i think it's time to try to bring the GOP together.

He's not a national candidate ONLY because of folks like you guys why wrote him off instead of trying to give him a chance. :idea:

If Huck keeps winning--esp. this week with Maryland and VA up for grabs, the GOP is in trouble. McCain can explain one loss (Kansas) but if Huck keeps racking them up... look out.

It's a pretty simple I think.. the votes that were going to Romney are now going to Huck.

For me, it's a pretty telling statistic. Conservatives aren't going to vote for McCain.

I LOVE it. I want it to be undecided coming into the Convention. Once it gets to the second floor vote and the delegates are released, Huck has a serious chance to get the nomination. Romneys delegates could easily sway to Huck. Any you are 100% right, real conservatives will not settle for McCain.

:roll: knuckle, we all know you would shine huck's shoes...i think you have a man crush on him. if he gets the nomination, it would be a huge upset IMO, and i would have no problem supporting him, but until then it's mc cain.

Hate to break it to you smooth, but the GOP is coming together for McCain.......i don't understand the logic if no bitter attacks are going on why "just because he is probably going to win" - everyone should just have to get in line behind that.

Ahhhh. The voice of reason.

Although....and I just thunk of this all by myself...the longer Huckabee stays in...the more he gets his name out nationally...and the BETTER it would be for him to be a viable VP candidate. Pretty good strategy, if you ask me.

like i said, i have zero problem with huck. i just feel like the longer he stays in the longer it will keep the party apart. if mc cain does get the nomination i do not see him picking huck for his VP.
Are we back?
