I had a feeling My choice of "lim-rick" might spark a small debate It's true, though. I do say it with two syllables and not "lim-er-ick."

Republican votes in my red state of Georgia favored Huckabee But the Democrats Clearly favored Obama over Hillary

Of course you are right Obviously my fingers don't know how to count Made the same mistake once in this thread already. Think I should give up? (And no, the mistake was not in the quoted line but elsewhere on page.) (oh, and Huckabee does rhyme with Hillary, doesn't it? Unintentional.)
