Satalite TV went out. And I really didn't feel like listening to any
eleciton results anyhow. too long and drawn out. Daughter is mome,
sick with mono. and so she and I watched videos till I hit the sack at
about 9:30. This morning, while getting ready for work I turned on the
TV and reception was good, but I scanned Fox, CNN, and about everyone
else and gave that up too. Too many commercials and talking heads.
Never found out anything conclusive.

so, besides not much, what did I miss?

Not much.

With McCain all but sewing up the R nomination, the conservatives will
likely begin a third party campaign. Given a choice between two of
the three moderates left standing, one R and two D's, much of the far
right will pull the handle for "none of the above" and extremism on
either side of the spectrum is difficult to silence.

The far righties on one of the firearms-related boards I read are
awaiting the End of Days. Their posts read as if they came from the lips
of Limbaugh or Coulter. Their guess is that the GOP nominees will be
McCain and Huckabee (their nightmare GOP ticket), and that the best hope
is to split off entirely and finally from the GOP and form a third party.

Nothing politically would please me more, but I doubt that will happen.
Most of the Repugs will hold their noses and vote for McCain.- Hide quoted text -

I listened to Rush LImbaugh for about an hour today. The callers that
got past his screeners were saying things like "There's no
conservative choice in this election!" Nearly all were at least
mildly, if not adamantly opposed to McCain. Limbaugh was blasting
McCain for "giving away the store to the Deomocrats!"

One of the callers suggested that Rush run as a third party candidate.
Never happen, but it's amusing to contemplate from 100 different
perspectives.

Those callers who said they would relucantly vote McCain were
typically quick to clarify "but it won't be a vote for McCain, it will
be a vote against Hillary"

Rush should get off the Romney kick and push Obama, at least until he gets
the nomination.
