McCain's "Luck": Clownish Huck


For McCain, Huck's not a spoiler, but the conservative divider, consciously.

For conservatives to let the Republican presidential nomination go to John McCain would be downright insane.

Head to head, conservative Mitt would win easily and maverick McCain would be politically dead.

For McCain, the Huck is a water carrier.

To Mitt, he's a presidential nomination barrier.

The supremely selfish Huck can amuse and entertain, but he cannot win.

His dividing conservatives with a religion-based campaign really is a sin.

In Iowa, the Huck topped Mitt, because he was Iowa evangelicals' pride and joy.

But the Huck can't win and was, is and intends to continue to be McCain's boy.

In New Hampshire, McCain edged Mitt by 3 and the Huck got 16.6.

Without Huck, Mitt would have won. BEWARE Huck's political tricks.

In Michigan, Mitt beat Mccain by 9.5, with the Huck taking 16.5.

That's right, the Huck kept the McCain presidential campaign alive.

In Florida, McCain topped Mitt by 5, with Huck taking 13.5.

AGAIN, the Huck kept the McCain presidential campaign alive.

In between, Huck lost to McCain in South Carolina by 3.

For McCain, Huck's not a spoiler, but the conservative divider, consciously.

Republicans need to realize that McCain and Huck are slick.

Instead of foolishly falling for their old divide-and-conquer trick.

Biography - Michael J. Gaynor

Michael J. Gaynor has been practicing law in New York since 1973. A former partner at Fulton, Duncombe & Rowe and Gaynor & Bass, he is a solo practitioner admitted to practice in New York state and federal courts and an Association of the Bar of the City of New York member.

Gaynor graduated magna cum laude, with Honors in Social Science, from Hofstra University's New College, and received his J.D. degree from St. John's Law School, where he won the American Jurisprudence Award in Evidence and served as an editor of the Law Review and the St. Thomas More Institute for Legal Research. He wrote on the Pentagon Papers case for the Review and obscenity law for The Catholic Lawyer and edited the Law Review's commentary on significant developments in New York law.

The day after graduating, Gaynor joined the Fulton firm, where he focused on litigation and corporate law. In 1997 Gaynor and Emily Bass formed Gaynor & Bass and then conducted a general legal practice, emphasizing litigation, and represented corporations, individuals and a New York City labor union. Notably, Gaynor & Bass prevailed in the Second Circuit in a seminal copyright infringement case, Tasini v. New York Times, against newspaper and magazine publishers and Lexis-Nexis. The U.S. Supreme Court affirmed, 7 to 2, holding that the copyrights of freelance writers had been infringed when their work was put online without permission or compensation.

Gaynor currently contributes regularly to www.MichNews.com, www.RenewAmerica.com, www.WebCommentary.com, www.PostChronicle.com and www.therealitycheck.org and has contributed to many other websites. He has written extensively on political and religious issues, notably the Terry Schiavo case, the Duke "no rape" case, ACORN and canon law, and appeared as a guest on television and radio. He was acknowledged in Until Proven Innocent, by Stuart Taylor and KC Johnson, and Culture of Corruption, by Michelle Malkin. He appeared on "Your World With Cavuto" to promote an eBay boycott that he initiated and "The World Over With Raymond Arroyo" (EWTN) to discuss the legal implications of the Schiavo case. On October 22, 2008, Gaynor was the first to report that The New York Times had killed an Obama/ACORN expose on which a Times reporter had been working with ACORN whistleblower Anita MonCrief.
