"He sure does have a pretty mouth."

In blogger poll, after blogger poll it has been Fred Thompson hands down, despite the efforts of Ron Paul bots. Most conservative bloggers I know have either came out and endorsed him, or are rooting for him. Below are just a handful.
John Hawkins of Rightwing News, Erick Erickson of RedState.Com, Pejman of RedState, Eugene Volokh of Volokh's Conspiracy, Polipundit of Polipundit, Ala from Blonde Sagacity, Beth at My Vast Right Wing Conspiracy, Kender at Kender's Musings, Gribbit at Gribbit's Word, Bill Quick of Daily Pundit, Misha of Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiller, Bob Krumm, Brandon at Conservative Superiority, Curt at Flopping Aces, Darrell of Alpha Patriot, Jimmie of the Sundries Shack, Justin Higgins of Right on the Right, Kim du Toit, MacRanger of Macsmind, Rick Moran of Right Wing Nuthouse, Mike Hendrix of Cold Fury, Rob Port of Say Anything, Stix of Stix Blog, TraderRob of Opinipundit, William Dyer of Beldar Blog, Nate of Irate-Nation, William Teach of Pirate's Cove, Kate of Ol Broad, Steve of Pencilnub, and though he is getting doubts…Ace of Ace of Spades. Plus many more.
With so many bloggers behind Thompson, and the trend of polls in Iowa, it makes one wonder if Iowa conservatives even read blogs.
With the Huckaboom hitting a wall called Rush Limbaugh, and the latest poll showing an up-climb, its far from time to give up on Fred.
I'm sure I missed other bloggers that are behind Fred. If I missed you, let me know in the comments with your name and blog url and I'll add you.
More: Steve of No Runny Eggs, KT Cat, Neil of Eternity Matters, Eric at Pool Bar, Martin at Conservative Blog Therapy, Arclightzero of Pro Patria, and Jim at Bright and Early.
Honestly, I think Thompson is the Republicans only hope in November. With social cons threatening to sit out if Guiliani or Romney gets the nomination...and business cons considering the same if Huckabee gets it....Thompson may be the only man who can stop a Hillary White House from being the new reality in 2009
Considering that he is the only true conservative running.
No doubt Huck will get the ex-con vote though.
Also, the most conservative choice of bloggers.
Here’s a more complete list of Fred’s endorsements, including the ones from the blogosphere:

There are many more bloggers backing Thompson than apear on the list. I’m adding them as I can find the time to confirm them.
To be consistent with my principles, I can only support Duncan or Fred (of those running- I stiil would like John Bolton). Thanks for this post.
sorry, for X posts...cr@ppy ISP.
Fred is great, but if he can’t even smash his Republican rivals, I think he has a problem.
He was highly touted early on, but doesnt seem to spark people in reacting to him.
That is why I still and proudly back Mitt Romney as the next president of these United States.
No thanks.
I guess that is why your guy is polling so far behind.
I hope you will always tout the one whom you are backing.
I won’t, though.
As I asked someone the other night, was he pandering to the NE with his governance in MA?
Or, is he pandering now?
“I guess that is why your guy is polling so far behind.”
Because I don’t like Myth has nothing to do with Fred.
If Fred wasn’t in the race, I still wouldn’t like Myth.
So, who cares?
