Bob Bernick Jr.: Presidential hopefuls care little for Utah primary

I don't know if you are referring to just the month of January, but not only did Obama plan to come here this week, he was here just a few months ago, and is opening his third office in the state. I have been volunteering at the Obama campaign headquarters, and i can tell you FOR A FACT that Obama cares alot about Utah. Actually, his campaign is kind of counting on winning Utah and some other smaller states in order to make up for some of the bigger states like California, and New York. Obama's campaign has focused on ALL of America. They even have campaign offices in Alaska. So...

EVERYBODY, VOTE FOR OBAMA ON TUESDAY!
OBAMA CARES ABOUT ALL AMERICANS.

Any day now we should start seeing articles crowing about the mittney win, preemptively, and how it helps him mathematically.
But the vote is for the best man. Not because of his religion. Unless you voted for someone else.

Thank our founding fathers for the Electoral College, or little states like Utah would matter even less than they do currently.

Oh yes our five 'votes' in the electoral college are oh so helpful.

All of Utah could shift over to Missouri and nobody would miss it.

It was Alan Keyes that campaigned in Utah just before the 2000 primary. And I voted for him.

Even Utahns don't care about the Utah primary. Wait and see what the voter turnout is.

The only people who want a Utah primary are the Utah politicos who want to see their political rock-star buddies to come to town.

To me, it's $1.5 million dollars I could find a better way to spend.

I can just imagine Utahns turning out in droves for the primary.
Each one of them with an insatiable hunger to see either a black man or a woman become their leader.

Notice he didn't even name Ron Paul, nor Huckabee?
