Real Alabama Politics

  • New York Times Endores….

    McCain. Imagine that. The prime example of Liberal Media chooses a former consideration for Kerry’s VP. Please people I am begging you do not vote for this guy. If you cannot find it in your heart to vote for Romney, vote for Ron Paul or Rudy, neither of them have [...]

  • Uppercut to Rudy?

    The latest Rasmussen polls are saying that Romney is leading by 5 points, 25%, over McCain. Rudy is in third place with 19%. Could Rudy’s Florida strategy be falling apart? He thought he was going to outsmart the crowd and could win it all based on Florida. I guess he [...]

  • Freddie Boy is out

    Fred Thompson is dropping out. Looks like it is going to be a three-man race between McCain, Romney, and Huckabee. They are declaring that there is no front-runner in Florida right now and that Rudy’s senior staff is not taking paychecks to save him money, sounds like his plan has backfired. [...]

  • Duncan Dropping Out

    Number of comments: 2
    I just heard that Duncan Hunter is announcing tonight that he is dropping his bid for the White House. I hate it, I know he had no chance, but I still liked having him out there. He says he is not endorsing anyone at the moment, seems like he is [...]

  • Polls have closed

    After Romney cleaned house in Nevada (51% of the vote) we now are on to watch South Caronlina’s numbers. Turnout was said to be low, mostly in part to rain and snow. I doubt we will have a winner announced with less than 5% of the vote in like we [...]

    How is the weather out there? We have about an inch here. My cousin in Tuscaloosa said they had snow this morning, but it quit and was melted by lunch. Any other reports? I heard Clanton and Selma were supposed to get it bad. [...]

  • Wow it gets earlier and earlier

    The Nevada Caucuses are being called for Mitt Romney with less than 1% in. In Michigan they called it the moment the polls closed. Make that 3 golds and two silvers for Romney. No one else can compete with that results so far. Right now it is Romney, McCain, PAUL, Thompson, [...]

  • Troy and McCain

    So the McCain campaign is now paying to fly Troy King around Alabama to campaign for the Senator. I find it humorous that Troy is the voice of the campaign in Alabama after his little trip he took to a Fred Thompson fundraiser. If I was the McCain campaign I [...]

  • Are you kidding me?

    The stupid woman (don’t know her name) on Fox News says that Romney’s silver medal strategy so far can’t help him. He moron, he is the top vote getter and at the top of the delegate count. The states we have had so far count very little. Alabama counts more [...]

  • Polls Are About to Close

    Now the polls are close to closing in Michigan. It is time to find out how the 30 delegates up for grabs get split up.  It is basically a McCain/Romney showdown. I love how it is a do or die situation for Romney and all of a sudden he comes out of [...]

    Number of comments: 1
    This quote from the Birmingham News is exactly why Mike Huckabee will be the downfall of this country if he is elected: “Pat and Gary Smith of Headland, in Henry County, talked about their support for Huckabee. ‘We really like his values, his sense of humor,’ Pat Smith said. “ Not because [...]

    Number of comments: 1
    I was “privileged” to meet Dr. Hugh Cort last night. He is a Birmingham psychiatrist and self-proclaimed “homeland security expert”. He is quick to tell you that he is currently in 8th place in the Republican race for President, right behind Duncan Hunter. The same Duncan Hunter that has one [...]

  • Senate Showdown Ended?

    Stop the presses. According to the Birmingham News Lt. Governor Folsom and Pro-Tem Hinton Mitchem have extended an “olive branch” to Senate Republicans. They have pledged to block any redistricting plans that would have an effect on 2010. Here is my favorite quote from Mitchem, “With this action, we’re extending the olive [...]

    Number of comments: 2

    Everyone looks good except Mike Huckabee, he looks like a punk. Ron Paul looked like a senile old man, very uncharacteristic of him he usually carries himself well. I know John Edwards caught a lot of crap about how much he paid to have his haircut, but seriously how much does [...]

  • Bill Richardson Drops

    So Bill Richardson has dropped out of the Presidential Race, who didn’t see that one coming? I figured he would drop with Dodd and Bidden to be followed by Duncan Hunter, but Duncan shocked the world and stole himself a delegate in Wyoming, a feat unmatched by Hackabee, Rudy, McCain, [...]

    I am watching the John McCain speech and the crowd reminds me of a crowd at a WWE professional wrestling match. Everything he says is followed by a stupid chant “MAC IS BACK” or “JOHN MCCAIN” and the kicker “USA! USA!”. During the “USA” chant I was just waiting on [...]

    Hilary Clinton showed last night why a woman cannot be President and why women should not be in a position of power. Kathleen Blanco (Lousianna Governor) showed this exact same flaw after Katrina. Women are overly emotional. Last night at a campaign event, Clinton got worked up and showed the effect [...]
