Thompson has been taking votes away from Rudy, not McCain. McCain's numbers have not gone up since Thompson began kicking the idea around. McCain is dead in the water, and nothing will save him, not even your theory.

Even though McCain an Thompson may b friends, their ideologies are very far apart.

I didn’t say that Thompson was taking votes away from McCain.

I said he’s taking votes away from other candidates in the hopes that his friend’s (McCaniac) fortunes/polls rise.
