The front-loaded primaries simply means that the blue states are panicking and want to prevent the more conservative challengers from having an impact in the race. It’ll have little or no bearing on Thompson as he already has name-recognition and strong grassroots support.
“The front-loaded primaries simply means that the blue states are panicking and want to prevent the more conservative challengers from having an impact in the race.” Actually it appears that the parties are determined to neutralize the role of the small states like Iowa and NH. States are likely listening to the desires of the Political parties and those have several motives.
Thompson is not immune to the pressures this change creates and his numbers do not support that conclusion. They are at this point only “good” not “great” and this conclusion does not come from my not liking the guy ‘cause I do.
