  • Some thoughts...

    1.  For those of you who are curious as to what happens to all the Patriots 19-0/Super Bowl champions stuff that were made.  Don't worry they aren't going to be destroyed or thrown away.  They will be packed up and shipped to third-world countries ti be distributed out.  And in some cases may be usurped by an enterprizing spirit and sold to some delusional Patriots fans.

    Unfortunately (or fortunately depending on your perspective) I couldn't find a place selling Patriots Super Bowl champions gear anywhere.  (But, then again I didn't look too closely)


    2.  Super Tuesday is over, and we still don't have a clear winner.  Now this is how a primary is supposed to be like.  Candidates slugging it out on the campaign trail.  I have never had this much fun tracking election results in a long time.  On the Dems side it will be a fight to the finish.  I think that match-up will turn ugly in mid to late February in preparation for the March primaries.  I don't think there will be a clear victor after March, and the fight will go all the way to June.  And even then there may not be a clear victor with enough delegates.  So, based on how polling looks in the next several months you will either see an all out fight, or the start of a back room deal.  However, I highly doubt Obama is going to want a back room deal.  This race will come down to the wire and most likely will not be resolved until the convention.


    On the republican side, well that's a whole different story.  Romney and my guy Huckabee have proved that they will not go down without a fight.  Winning CA and NY were big for McCain, and that does give him some momentum.  Unfortunately, with key votes being split between Romney and Huckabee it will be hard to get either one to conceede especially if the final tallies from last night hold.  I don't see either one backing down.  But, the one guy that needs to drop out is Paul.  Talk about beating a dead horse, he has consistently come in last and garnered only a small percentage of the vote.I just don't see him droping out of the race.  Honestly, I think he will stay in it straight to the convention.  As for the top three, well let's just say TX just became very important.  depending on what happens in the next few primaries, we may see either Huckabee or Romney drop out.  However, I just don't see that happening. 


    3.  You got to do, what you got to do.
