Romney Wins Florida But West Kicks Butt Too

Mittens kicked butt in Florida with a 46% to Newt's 32%. Rick had 13% and Ron finished last at 7%, and since the Sunshine State is winner take all, Romney gets all the delegates.  The speeches that were given after it all ended were interesting--Mitt never mentioned Newt and vice versa, even though they had gone at each other  like alleycats on speed. Newt continued to get his message out to the Florida voters and attacked Obama while Mitt sounded like Rocky Balboa on Sominex. The thing that I am most grateful for is the fact that Rick's daughter, Bella, is doing much better since being admitted to the hospital for double pneumonia.  Poor Bella suffers from Trisomy 18, a genetic disorder that places her health in a constant precarious position.  It was nice to see the candidates, and even David Axelrod, pause from politics and pray for her.

Just another racist conservative
Allen West also made news when he attacked the liberal leaders for attacking entrepreneural business amd get their policies the hell out of the country. Liberals made it sound like he was attacking them and telling them to leave, but he clarified this by making it clear that it is the policies he wants to go.  He is tired of conservatives as being Constitutional punching bags; those days are over, he said. Fox News The Five's Bob Beckel, was extremely upset over this comment but was set straight by his co-hosts that GW Bush was constantly attacked and even Obama called him "unpatriotic" which put Big Beckel in his place. (I'm finding it increasingly difficult to watch The Five with Beckel--while it's important to get the liberal viewpoint to reassert to oneself why we're conservatives, Beckel has a way of pissing me off like a Joseph A. Bank commercial).

So we shall see where the GOP race goes from here--I believe that Mitt is going to win big, but I would like to see Newt go for broke.  Unfortunately, I believe these attack ads are hurting both candidates with independent voters, which can only bring a smile to King O's face. 






If you are interested in terrorism and suspense, I have provided 2 links (below) for a hard copy (soft cover) edition and an eBook edition of my latest novel, Jihad Joe.  It's a story about Zed Nill, a New York based reporter, taken hostage by Islamic terrorists.  He must escape, or be beheaded the following day . . . the clock is ticking.
