Current Mood: | Republican 2008 Primary Election: The DP Edition Well since primaries start this month and dont end till February Ive decided that it would be nice to have our own primary and see how well it matches up to when every state gets done with theres. Mods if you be so kind is to keep this topic pinned until the primary elections are over in February.

Current Mood: | Re: Republican 2008 Primary Election: The DP Edition For a few reasons:
1. The actual primaries will include those candidates.
2. People will vote for those candidates in the actual primaries.
3. The poll would lose credibility if it left them out (for the above reasons).
4. Paul supporters would throw a fit of epic proportions if he was left out. |

Current Mood: | Re: Republican 2008 Primary Election: The DP Edition Yeah, knock it down to people who have a real chance and you come out with Romney, Giuliani and McCain with an outside shot by Huckabee (if he wins Iowa and Thompson drops out, otherwise he's toast). |
