A Little More About the Numbers
Just a little more about the numbers. At 10:45 pm - FoxNews is reporting these numbers:
In Texas, my home state, Democrats have cast approximately 1.8 million votes. Republicans have cast 900,000 votes. And even with that huge disparity, only 48% of Democratic precincts are reporting, yet 55% of Republican precincts are reporting.
This again shows a concerning disparity. The 2 to 1 ratio of Democratic Party voters to Republican Party voters has got to speak to these facts:
- Democratic voters are fired up.
- Obama turns out lots of voters.
- Republican voters are not fired up.
- McCain is not turning out lots of voters.
I’m a perfect case in point. I’m a conservative Texas voter. I didn’t vote. I intended to vote early, but there was some confusion about the early voting location. When push came to shove, I got too busy, and I simply didn’t have any incentive to go to any great trouble.
McCain must find a way to convince true conservatives that he has seen the error of his ways and is willing to lead a conservative movement. Unfortunately, there’s no sign of that occurring.

Not only is there no sign of McCain convincing “true conservatives that he has seen the error of his ways and is willing to lead a conservative movement,” there’s no chance of it happening. I wouldn’t believe him even if he tried to do so, and I won’t vote for him in any case.
