Hey, Fred! Can You See It Yet? GET OUT!!!

I am one angry and frustrated man tonight. I am edging close to despair over America's future. Tonight South Carolina voted for John McCain by 33% to 30% over Mike Huckabee. Fred Thompson set a personal best tonight with all of sixteen percent.

It will take me some time to forgive Fred Thompson, the National Right to Life Committee, and Fred's supporters for handing John McCain such a big win tonight in South Carolina. May God help Gov. Huckabee to rally in Florida after Thompson finally recognizes what all of America has known since Iowa. Fred needs to drop out of the race and do it now while there's still a chance to nominate a pro-life candidate.

John McCain crafted a Presidential selection process tailor made for long-time Senators such as himself to have a huge advantage. They can use their existing funds from previous federal level races in their campaigns for President. The only other alternative to running a national campaign on level playing grounds with long-time Senators is the tiny set of independently wealthy people like Mitt Romney.

As if the process was not slanted enough, the Christian community leaders waffled between the candidates, some of whom support abortion now, some of whom supported abortion when it was convenient for the race they were running at the time, or they lobbied on behalf of abortion rights groups. So there was no unified voice of Christians DESPITE the "Values Voters" summit where ***51%*** of those present chose Gov. Huckabee. Apparently, the leaders felt "uncomfortable" with the only consistently pro-life candidate. It is time for the leadership of the National Right to Life Committee to resign. Such a position of responsibility and yet so little backbone.

Hey Jim Dobson, if you could really "never vote for John McCain", perhaps the Values Voters Summit was the time to come out with that little tidbit of information? Why bother now? If it's true that his McCain-Feingold Act has involved government in controlling what can and cannot be said in worship services, and what groups like Focus on the Family can tell their supporters, then where was this information in South Carolina?

If 527 Organizations like Club for Growth can receive hundreds of thousands from the rich friends of Flip Romney, and they can run ads without regard to truth or context, where is the fairness or justice in that? Who set up this system, anyway? Oh, that's right... John McCain.

Now we have McCain, Giuliani, and Flip Romney fighting for the lead in "winner take all" Florida... and South Carolina just handed momentum to McCain.

Maybe God really has abandoned America. Maybe the vast number of infant murders already committed is too much for him to overlook.

What will be our answer when the question is asked about abortion: "Why didn't somebody do something?" Will it be "We voted based on political expediency"? Perhaps God will be mollified with "I didn't think Mike could win so I didn't want to vote for him and he lost by three percentage points".
