*Official Primary Election Thread* for Tuesday's Michigan & Arizona!
Edited on Tue Feb-28-12 08:50 PM by KoKo
I know we don't have many folks here these days...but, figured a few might want to drop in an post if you watch MSM. (I'm so "out of it" this year...I THINK it's Michigan and Arizona that are voting for Romney/Santorum?)

Anyway...I was hoping to create some excitement for the Primary here on DU-2..(just in case "some folks" think we are dead or dying..over here) :evilgrin:

Is anyone watching ...Anyone care to do a thread about what MSM is saying about this? I did tune into Matthews show tonight after about a year not watching and found what he was saying and his group entertaining because they take the REPUG PRIMARY...SOOOOOO...SERIOUSLY.

Anyway...Just putting it out there so we can show we are still ALIVE...over here. Like the Old Days of DU when we used to really "get off" on this stuff.

1. So far Rachel's Show has Romney Operative saying he thinks he's won...
I'm not seeing tally's though. I'm going to "hold nose" and check out CNN to see if they have the early votes.

CNN is now showing a speech by Ron Paul to "fill in time?" :shrug: I didn't know Ron Paul was on Ballot in MI or AZ? But, must be... :shrug:

3. Rachel and Fineman are saying that MI Dem Voters could Cross Over to vote in Repug Primary and
so that if Romney loses then he will blame it on Dem. Dirty Tricks and Robo Calls that Santorum's Organization made to Dems telling them to get out and vote against Repugs. "Mischief Making" is what some Op on Chris Matthews show said earlier this evening.

(yeah I was slumming earlier...having not watched this stuff for awhile it was fascinating)

8. Oh...Well...Looks like CNN called AZ for Romney...Got a big Red Check there...
And Michigan is so close...it could be an "all nighter" and so I'm going to go finish my work project and check in before I go to bed.

If anyone wants to carry on.

14. Sorry I let you down Koko. In a rare event, I fell asleep last night before 8 pm East Coast time.
These days, I usually put in most of my DU time while drinking my morning coffee, then check back during the breaks I take throughout the day.

I never saw your thread yesterday, though. However, candor compels me to add that I head for the pillow whenever I feel sleepy. As an insomniac, I would never get any sleep at all otherwise.
