PARTY-BACKED REPUBLICANS DEFEAT TEA PARTY….

Romney Secures GOP Nod in Primary

Party-backed Republicans easily defeat Tea Party candidates to be delegates to their national convention.
Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney took a big step in his quest to secure the GOP nomination with a five-state sweep on Tuesday, including a landslide victory in the Pennsylvania primary.
Romney easily outdistanced his opponents among Pennsylvania Republicans with 58 percent of the vote. Among Bucks County voters, the former Massachusetts governor also won big, securing 27,532 votes for 66.6 percent.
As of midnight, 9,165 out of 9,260 districts (98.97%) were reporting statewide while in Bucks County, 302 of the 304 districts have been counted.
Former Sen. Rick Santorum‘s (R-Pa.) decision to drop out of the race a few weeks ago handed Romney an expected victory in the primary. Despite dropping out of the race on April 10, Santorum was running second statewide with 18.4 percent of the vote. In Bucks County, Ron Paul finished second with 13.4 percent of the vote and Santorum was third at 11.6 percent.

ACCESS TO EVIL (are there neocon ministers?).

 

Reblog this post [with Zemanta]

(I state no opinion on the following but thought that you might want to read another point of view not reaching the mass media or talk show hosts. -mackie)

“After barring Ron Paul, the Republifascists will give the main convention speaking slots to the sanctimonious neocon monster Lieberman, the crooked neocon monster Giuliani, and the neocon war criminals Cheney and Bush.

 Also today, at a town meeting, when a questioner said the State needed a military draft to be able to kill enough foreigners, McCain said he didn’t disagree with anything she said.

 Ron Paul made a (yet another) great point yesterday, about what an outrage it is that one man can select the vice president. According to the original Constitution, the vice president was the man who came in #2 in the electoral college vote. But wouldn’t that mean he would be keeping an eagle eye on the presidentas versus being his willing enabler, that’s right.”
