.... at the same rate they stayed home for the Iowa caucuses, it will be

as a former Republican I can tell you that even many Registered republicans
will
not vote for the Republican nominee in November unless Hillary gets the
Democratic
nomination which I don't think she will and God I hope not.

lots of independents will also help determine the outcome.

regardless of what Fox Noise or the talk-radio jerks say, the days of Neocon
reign are coming to an end.

Obama will be our next president.

Huh? I do not get it..there were like
200k votes for Huckabee alone..
and
4k votes for Obama.

Seems like the republicans had lots more people turn out.

Not yet. We'll have a better idea in February.

But there's a desire to wipe the slate clean of a failed administration that
I haven't seen since '92 (the last time we had to clean up after a Bush).

I'm a registered Republican, and I can't imagine voting for Huckleberry. I
can't vote for Romney or McCain, either. I would vote for Ron Paul, and I
will vote for him in the primary. I would have had no problem voting for
Tancredo.

But I cannot vote for a Bible-thumping corrupt phony like Huckleberry, or a
silver-spoon sucking slick flip flopper like Romney, or a warmongering
Washington insider like McCain.

The Republicans did NOT "stay home" in Iowa. Turnout was higher for
the GOP caucus in 2008 than in 2004.

What happened was that there was a much larger increase in turnout for
the Dem caucus. Young voters, who are usually apathetic about voting,
turned out in droves just to vote for Obama.

What that suggests is that if Obama gets the Dem nomination, he will
clobber the GOP. But if Hillary gets the Dem nomination, it will be
much closer.

The FACTS, once again, conspire to urinate in your open mouth:

"Updated attendance figures from Thursday night's caucus show Democrats drew
roughly 239,000 participants, dwarfing the Republicans' pull of
approximately 120,000, party officials said. Those are unprecedented
headcounts for both parties."

The telling number isn't the number of GOP or Democrats turned out, but how
many moderates/independents showed up and who they were voting for. Some
people are still under the mistaken impression that the Reps or Dems
actually decide elections. LOL!

You will notice that I phrased it as "turnout for the Dem caucus," not
"Dem turnout." That was so I could allow for young and independent
voters to turn out for Obama (and as some Independents will turn out for
McCain in NH too).

Obama can't win the south. No way. You don't win the presidency without the
south, and that's just not going to happen. Edwards could win the south.
He's a southern white guy. But Hillary won't, and Obama won't. Obama is a
black guy with a funny name, and Hillary is Hillary.

Of course you can win without the South. The South is the most un-American
part of the country and most out of step with America. Much of the South
(but not all of it) will go for which ever loser the Republics nominate. It
won't matter. The Republics are now a regional party of fringe extremists.
The Democratic Party represents America, and that's why whoever gets the
nomination will win big -- without the so-called "important" South. After
this election they'll be talking about the marginalization of the South, not
how crucial it is.

Voters consider Presidential elections to be more important than
all the various caucuses. I don't think we'll see Republinazi
apathy come election time.

So? Who cares what the regional moonbat party does?

Most Americans -- Democrats and independents -- won't be voting for them.
