GOHMERT TO REPORTEDLY DROP BID IF HE LOSES TN



Politico- According to several reports from those within the RNC, Tea Party Republican Presidential candidate Louie Gohmert will likely drop out of the race, should he lose Tennessee. It clear any path Gohmert would have to the nomination would run through the Volunteer State.

The Gohmert campaign is citing their dominating performance in West Virginia, where the Republican electorate is similar to that of TN. However, one asset Jindal has is the popular Senator Bill Haslam. Haslam is helping Jindal mobilize voters in growing suburban areas such as Rutherford County and parts of Shelby County. The House delegation is overall split in terms of support. The 6 Congressional Republicans from TN have split even Roe, Duncan and Black have backed Jindal while Fleischmann, Blackburn and Fincher have endorsed Gohmert.

On the Democratic side, Warner is expected to win in a landslide. Governor Bresdesen has endorsed Warner as have Senator Gordon and Reps. Cohen, Cooper and Stewart.

In the Connecticut and Maryland primaries, Governors Huntsman and Cuomo are expected to win their respective primaries.

Polling:

TN (PPP)

Jindal- 44%
Gohmert- 40%
Huntsman- 9%

TN (Rasmussen)

Jindal- 43%
Gohmert- 42%
Huntsman-11%

Yay. Been reading up on one of my favorite timelines. Louie Gohmert vs. Bobby Jindal. Yikes. It's like Aliens vs. Predator. Whoever wins... we lose.

Can't wait to see how the primaries turn out.

I still consider the guy who lives two doors down from me to be my "neighbor."

GOHMERT COMES UP SHORT IN TN, EFFECTIVELY EXITS RACE


Tonight, Republicans came one step closer to choosing a Presidential nominee. Behind in delegates, any path to the nomination for tea party firebrand Louie Gohmert would have run through Tennessee. In fact, a top Gohmert spokesman announced recently that the candidate's presence in the primary hinged on the Tennessee GOP electorate.

With 96% of precincts reporting, Governor Jindal is clinging to nearly a 5-point lead and the AP has called the race in teh Governor's favor. Governor Jon Huntsman, despite leading in overall delegates, was largely a non-factor tonight.

Gohmert's margins in rural western and middle TN helped to cancel out Jindal's support in the Nashville and Memphis areas. However, Jindal's surprisingly strong performance in the east made up the bulk of his statewide margin; Senator Bill Haslam, hailing from Knoxville, was an ardent Jindal surrogate throughout the campaign.

On the Democratic side, only Warner made campaign stops in TN; it was a forgone conclusion that the Virginia Governor would win in a landslide.

So Jindal vs. Warner it is?

Also, I'm rather surprised that an Italian Catholic Northeasterner isn't ahead in RI, especially since he just carried CT so handily. Tongue

Obama won CT and Hillary won RI.

Eh, sorry guys. I think I'm out of the TL business for now. It just isn't what it used to be for me for some reason. I appreciate the enthusiasm though.

Maybe I'll get back into it down the road...
