ROMNEY has won the GUAM caucuses.

We're all familiar with the old saying, "as goes Guam, so goes the Northern Mariana Islands and American Samoa" so this is a good sign.

Romney wins the Northern Mariana Islands. 18 delegates from the territories in the middle of the night.

Romney also picked up all nine delegates from Guam on Saturday. Republicans on the tiny Pacific island met at their state convention and backed Romney in a unanimous show of hands.

Voting by show of hands. The nomination process is a hell of a thing.

I assumed that there were more. Is that where Bob got his shingle? I don't care enough to look it up. The actions of the two colleges I mentioned sicken me. They are overtly political, making the church and state thing a one way street. They give kids off the school for campaigning. It speak poorly of my faith to have these oppressive drones going door to door promoting ideals that often are twinged with hate. Young ladies dressed cute talking about how we need to protect our families from homosexuals (vote Dick Black baby).


Dressed cute or not, I would, without question, close the door in their pretty faces. What we really need protection from is intolerance, unless it is forced upon me against my religious beliefs.



I take the opposite approach. I keep them at my door or in my house as long as possible. They'll never convince me of anything and being with me keeps them from being with someone else that they may convince. I once had two mormons in my house in NH for almost 4 hours. We made them lunch and talked Jesus for half the afternoon. I completely wasted their time.

Forgive my ignorance with all the intricacies of conventions, but if Newt drops out who do his delegates go to?

I think if he formally releases his delegates after dropping out they become unbound, which means they can support anyone. I don't think he can bind them to anyone else through endorsement.

Weird day delegate wise. Santorum has his best win yet in Kansas, and Mitt still might win more delegates on the day if he sweeps US Virgin Islands like Guam and Northern Mariana Islands.

The Northern Mariana Islands, iirc, are where the GOP was testing out the labor policies that they intend to try to institute on the mainland, if they can figure out a way to get away with it.

Unrelated, I wonder what Mitt is giving Newt to win him the race. You know Newt is all about the money with his books and everything. The man has bills to pay and he's smart enough to recognize that he has some leverage.

Well, crap.

American is held after shooting of civilians in Afghanistan

A United States service member walked out of a military base in a rural district of southern Afghanistan on Sunday and opened fire on three nearby houses, killing at least 16 civilians, including several children, local villagers and provincial officials said.

One of the comedians I follow said something like Mitt is the regular athlete in a Special Olympics race and is barely winning

These primaries Tuesday night in Bama and Mississippi are close as hell. Any of the three can win either state.

I haven't seen a whole lot written about this sentiment, but I really think if Romney wins both (or one and a close second in the other), there is going to be a lot of pressure on the rest of the field to drop out. Both Santorum and Gingrich.

I can see the headlines if your scenario comes to pass: "Mitt shits grits, twits spilt gilt, wilt, & quit tilts"
