Are you sure? As last I heard, WY moved to Jan. 5. By state law, NH must be at least 7 days before any other primary. That puts NH between Christmas and New Years at least. I'm thinking they will go earlier to miss the holiday week. Say Dec 20. That's 107 days away.
Merry Christmas.

It is just my opinion, but I beleive the Dims started the early campaigns in order to increase the pressure on Bush. They could castigate his every move under the rhetoric of being in a campaign.
To: hocndoc
This has been rehashed over and over.. the original source of the bad information seems to come from NumbersUSA, an anti-immigration (all immigration) that was started by a leftist environmentalist who used stopping immigration as a way to get into negative population growth to help the environment. NumbersUSA isn’t just incorrect on Thompson, it is wrong on pretty much every candidate. OnTheIssues.org is a far better resource because it takes actual bill votes, not simply votes moving a bill around for editing or review. It also takes into account if a Senator proposes a competing bill or amendment (as with the Exon amendment here) so it doesn’t falsely place someone as opposing an issue simply because they are proposing an alternate amendment.

To: LexBaird
And what you point out is exactly why I labeled my post as only the facts of which I was aware. 6 months ago all primaries were a go based on ‘04 timetables. Neither Fred I believe, nor myself I am sure, had any knowledge of this fiasco of musical primaries.
To: crazyshrink
I agree with that. It gives them a platform to have their opinions about the issue deJour in the media every night.

I am positive that John Cox will kick FDTs Butt! Isn't John Cox Gay?
To: Ben Mugged
The articles premise appears to be that people have already made up their minds. Pure nonsense. We have a year and a month yet to go. We will be hearing about how Fred “blew it when he waited” for the next 13 months.

I’m going to run in 2016 but I’m changing my name first... I’m thinking “Who’s That”.
To: VideoDoctor
Hell if I know.
But come to think of it, his name does have kind of a gay porn star like sound to it...

Wasn’t Law and Order re-run running till the end of August?
Maybe he wanted his face on in Law and Order.
To: gpapa
No, the others are way too early and have wasted their money.
