[Reagan Man]

I told you roughly eight hours ago to support whoever you like. Conservatives like me know the difference between a long shot and a legitimate candidate. Whether Fred can garner the nomination is still up in the air, but I like his chances. After months of campaigning, Hunter has made no impact on the primary race.

There are only two groups throwing cold water on Fred`s campaign at this point. Disaffected crybabies like you and the liberal media. That includes the Bush/Giuliani shills over at Fox News.

Funny, Hannity loves Fred almost as much as Rudy.

September polling data will give a strong indication of how much support Thompson has after his announcement. If he doesn't get a few point jump then he may be like the rest and stuck lacking the ability to get the public on board his campaign.

The following polling data is for the month of Aug. comparing Thompson to Hunter. Neither candidate is setting the public on fire but Thompson hasn't been in the race doing actual campaign work/events/etc.

The first caususes and primaries are less than five months away. Super Tuesday, Feb. 5, 2008 is just a week over five months away. Any candidate that can't increase his polling numbers rapidly won't be the nominee come Sept. 1, 2008.
