this.

Now, all of a sudden, he makes the papers!

"Pa. vote hints Republicans divided in support for McCain"

"by Foon Rhee, Globe Staff | April 24, 2008

While nearly all the attention focused on the hard-fought Democratic primary in Pennsylvania, John McCain, the presumptive Republican nominee, didn't exactly have a walkover.

The Arizona senator won 73 percent of the nearly 805,000 votes cast Tuesday, but libertarian Representative Ron Paul of Texas drew 16 percent and former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee had 11 percent.

McCain essentially clinched the nomination after Huckabee withdrew following losses in the March 4 primaries in Ohio and Texas. A week later in Mississippi, McCain won 79 percent to Huckabee's 13 percent and Paul's 4 percent.

The support for other candidates could be seen as a protest vote against McCain, who is trying to unite the Republican Party behind him....

Is it just me, or are you insulted by the attention at this point, readers?!

Yeah, now that the "race" is over, Ron Paul is safe to put in the paper!

And the political establishment thinks they are going to buy us off by giving him a speaking slot -- when they don't listen anyway?

Donald Kettl, director of the Fels Institute of Government at the University of Pennsylvania, said of Tuesday's results.... that the turnout was low and that many McCain supporters stayed home while Paul's loyal followers showed up. He also said that some Republicans who might have voted for McCain had switched their registration so they could vote in the Democratic primary....

Ooooooooh, so THAT'S how Hillary allegedly beat Obama -- because REPUBLICANS are selecting the DEMOCRAPIC nominee!!!!!

But those Dems love Hitlery because she's got a better chance in the fall, yup!!!!

Puh-leeze, readers!!!!

While most of McCain's competitors this election are campaigning for him or laying low, Paul plans to go to the Republican national convention in early September to further his message of limited government and opposition to the Iraq war. His campaign bragged yesterday that 128,000 Pennsylvanians had voted for "freedom," and announced a rally tomorrow in Idaho, where Republicans go to the polls May 27.... "

I'm offended, readers. Where ya been, MSM?!?

Naw, it's fine that you sold us a bunch of rigged elections and drowned out the voice of the American people!

Oh, that's why you are here reading me, viewing my profile and voting in my (silly) poll, huh, readers?!
