2014: Midterms, Presidential Contests and beyond

Great!! Although I have to swith my support from Miller to Patrick. Cuomo and Warner may be the most electable, but they're not liberal enough .

Good, though I think you're slightly insulting the GOP's intelligence by putting Gohmert this well. I just don't see it as even a remote possibility.

Santorum, Angle, Miller, Buck, Mourdock (over Lugar), McMahon, Paladino, Inhofe...
Not saying republicans are dumb. Democrats have nominated some radicals occasionally, too. But the electorate is not intelligent, generally speaking.

Tom Coburn would be a better candidate in GOP primaries than Gohmert, although his friendship to Obama can play against him.

Coburn also endorsed Manchin and is good friends with Chuck Schumer

HUNTSMAN ON A ROLL WITH DOUBLE-WINS; CUOMO TAKES NV, THOUGH PROGRESSIVE COUNTER WITH MILLER WIN IN ME CAUCUS

[Miles]

Oh darn! I just realized that I grouped ME with about 3 or 4 other states on my primary schedule. I'll have those out next...oh well.

[Maxwell]

oh sh**t Wyden, get out before its too late son!

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

Wyden and Udall should drop out, they have no path to victory. Warners chances also seem to be waning.

[SUSAN CRUSHBONE]

Wyden is the best candidate here, but he should drop out now.

[Incipimus iterum]

Go Huntsman :-D

[Maxwell]

Also, Susana Martinez is done.

[California8429]

Not sure how Martinez lost Nevada, unfortunate.

[Incipimus iterum]

warner still has a chance the south, and udall lost momentum but he needs to win one state to stay relevant ans wyden well hes out pretty much, huntsman is on a roll so far, and martinez is well Nevada was her last chance and she blew it, rubio well he needs to win a state other then Florida

That can be said in both parties.  But enough PA Republicans voted for Casey in 06 to throw Santorum out on his sorry ass.  McMahon I like.  Murdock can win.  I can't really comment on Inhofe and Paladino cuz I don't know them .  And just because some of our politicians are social conservative neocon loons doesn't mean the GOP or even all of the TEA Party is too.  Look at our former leader: Ron Paul (till Sarah stole the crown that rightfully belonged to him >)

I think Wyden drops out in favor of Miller, and Oatrick drops out for Cuomo. Udall would've dropped out of he hadn't won Minnesota. Go Cuomo!

Jindal / Rubio 16, and go Cuomo for Dems

WYDEN DROPS OUT, ENDORSES UDALL; RUBIO ENDS WH BID, BACKS JINDAL

Politico- The race for the White House will go on after this week without two competitors. Senators Ron Wyden and Marco Rubio, neither of whom gained much traction, will be heading back to the Senate rather than continuing to pursue national ambitions.

In a press conference today, Wyden thanked his staffers and supporters. "I enjoyed working with everyone on this campaign team and taking our message out to the voters. Still, on election days, the numbers just weren't working in our favor. In the end, I will be going back to Congress to serve the people of Oregon." Wyden then said that he supports fellow Senator Mark Udall. "Mark and I have done some great work together in the Senate. Serving on the Energy and Natural Committe with him, we have worked to promote sustainable solutions for our country's future. On fiscal issues, I am confident that Mark's common-sense approach will carry him into the White House."

Rubio, initially considered the favorite of the tea party, saw his support dwindle as Congressman Louie Gohmert was better able to mobilize far-right voters. Other than winning his home state of Florida, a state which was largely uncontested, Rubio struggled to keep up with his competitors' fundraising. In his statement, he threw his support behind Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal. "As the son of immigrants myself, I identify firsthand with the Governor's inspiring life story. Likewise, Governor Jindal and I have a similar vision for this country. As a one of our neighbors along the Gulf Coast region, I have closely watched the work he has done. Before Governor Jindal's tenure, the state of Louisiana was facing a fiscal crises due to decades of corrupt Democratic rule; using Republican principles, he has made Louisiana one of the most business-friendly states in the nation while consistently keeping unemployment low. These conservative reforms are what I work towards every day in the Senate and this can be a model for the country."
