Yeah. That’s a far cry from Slick Willard’s 47% negatives.

I wish Rush would discuss this more, 2 hours of each 3 hour show would do.

“new conservative” is such an oxymoron.....

I wish Rush would break his rule about not endorsing during the primary.

Hey Rush, Fred needs you!

Some suggest 20 million, I think those are the ratings.

I read the transcript when it first came out, and thought that was pretty good news for Fred. Then I heard the audio, and I thought this is really good. The video is really powerful, and makes Rush’s position regarding Fred quite obvious.

Rush is off the air until Jan 2, so I hope he can find a way to hammer the point home. However, while important, I don’t believe for a minute that IA means everything to Fred’s campaign.

He’ll finish no worse than third, and may pull a surprise and do better. Plenty of time for Fred to “make another stand” in SC, then count on his own “Solid South” on Super Tue to splash onto the national daily headlines.

No one wants to talk about him, but... see my tagline.

Fred is "the man behind the curtain" that the media wants us to ignore.

Which means it's up to us to get the word out.

Wouldn’t it be great to see Fred take Iowa, and to still see the media ignore him? I wouldn’t be surprised if they hammer the point Mitt came in a strong second and Hucklegerry a close third with no mention Fred came in first.

Seriously though, Rush said Giuliani, Romney and Huckabee all had liberal aspects to their governance in the past. What he didn’t say was that Thompson had no experience at governance.

And O’Reilly will conduct another poll and forget to include Fred.

I'm afraid Fred has dropped to single digits in nearly every early state primary poll. Even in Iowa where he putting all his effort he is fighting Alan Keyes to be be noticed against the background noise.

Back in late June Fred was "The Man." What happened?

I think part of the problem is that many of Fred's supporters decided to spend more time on personal attacks against the other candidates (especially Romney) than trying to help Fred with donations of time and money.

Seriously though, are you saying that, after watching the video (you did take a look at I hope), that Rush is not leaning heavily toward Fred?

-—Amd that is important how?-—

I’m glad you asked.

It was an allusion to what Nixon said about Thompson on a couple of occasions, that he wasn’t very intelligent, but that he was friendly (to the Nixon administration).
