Leave this a sticky on this section till Super Tuesday.
http://news.aol.com/elections/story/_a/mccain-romney-seek-command-on-feb-5/n20080131002609990017?cid=435
All Super Tuesday voters.. remember this what ever state you are in. These are the amount of delegates per each state..
CALIFORNIA (170 delegates) < a BIGGGG Key state
NEW YORK (101 delegates) < Another Big Key state
GEORGIA (72 delegates)
MISSOURI (58 delegates)
ILLINOIS (57 delegates) < An up for grabs state,, THAT IS OBAMA'S STATE. Republicans must be very tricky yet smart on this one.
NEW JERSEY (52 delegates) <Another swing state vote it can shift between McCain and Romney
BEST OF THE REST
Of the 15 other states that will vote, three are home states that each candidate is all but certain to win - Arizona for McCain, Massachusetts for Romney and Arkansas for Huckabee.
Utah is essentially a second home for Romney; its large Mormon population is likely to give him a win. He also will look to win in states that hold caucuses - Alaska, Colorado, Minnesota, North Dakota - and one that holds a state convention, West Virginia.
McCain could do well in Oklahoma, as well as moderate Northeastern states like Connecticut and Delaware. Huckabee will look to a Southern swath of conservative bastions like Tennessee to validate his weakened candidacy.
Montana is a wild card.
Get out there and keep your eye on key states to influence the states favoring Mc Cain..

Thanks for the thread, Wolf!
Here's the thread with the California web sites:

Thanks Chaim, yes California and New York are the 2 biggest over the edge states for Tuesdays cause of the size of delegates. And with half he state in being Hispanic and the other half being Leftists in California we must be smart about that one. With New York we can still target upstate regions mainly western NY.

New York is hopeless. It is a winner take all state, meaning that the candidate who gets the most votes gets all of the delegates. McCain has a huge lead in New York, and has the support of Giuliani and all of the Republican politicians in the state. We New Yorkers should vote for Romney this Tuesday, but to post messages for him on New York sites is a waste of time.
California is not winner take all. And Wolf, California REPUBLICANS are not Hispanics or leftists. California Republicans are more conservative than New York Republicans. The odds are against us everywhere, but we should at least try to win in California.

I have started posting on the San Diego papers forum it was easy to sign up. I will concentrate on this papers forum. This may be our last chance to make a difference so lets get moving.

In most of the states, Romney is the one to compete with McCain.
However, in Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia and Tennessee, Huckabee does much better against McCain. So in those four states, you should root for Huckabee, hoping he defeats McCain, to prevent McCain from gaining delegates in those states. Today, McCain campaigned in Alabama and Tennessee.
There will probably be some conservatives who vote for McCain in states, despite disagreeing with him on many issues, because they've been convinced that he's the most electable. This factor is difficult to overcome.
Take a look at polls from one of the southern states:

The voters in Georgia probably prefer Huckabee. However, many now perceive McCain as the most "electable" so in the most recent poll date (1/30), it goes from a Huckabee double-digit lead to a McCain double-digit lead.
Missouri might be a disaster:
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2008/president/mo/missouri_republican_primary-533.html
With Romney and Huckabee basically splitting the anti-McCain vote according to the polls, McCain might win the state by a small margin.

If people are interested in posting on other forums in other states and Cities then just used google to find them! Chaim does not have time to search out other newspapers and most likely given the youth of most of this forum, most of us are probably more skilled with google than he is (no offense to Chaim of course).
Look I just found the Modesto California Forum by using google:
