Yep. Fred lost the support of this Tennessean when he quit the race just as things were starting to heat up. I thought his decision was way too premature and had he stayed in for a while longer, even if he wasn't winning, he could have at least helped to direct the topics of conversation to conservative issues. I won't make the mistake of supporting a quitter again.....
I think he quit because while he really wanted to go after the democrats, he didn’t want to go after his fellow republicans including mccain.
