[George W. Bush]

Mitt: expected to win his native Michigan and did very well.

Huckabee, Brownback, Hunter: very very weak.

Ron Paul and John McCain: surprisingly strong.

Fred Thompson and Giuliani: very weak, considering they both made personal appearances and still couldn't beat Ron Paul.

****Huckabee, Brownback, Hunter: very very weak.****

I wonder if Huckabee and Brownback’s failure to appear is an indication that they will be dropping out soon?

***Ron Paul and John McCain: surprisingly strong.***

I continue to be impressed with RP’s showing among old time pols. Some more good showings and the argument, about not throwing away your vote because he can’t win, will lose its appeal.

***Fred Thompson and Giuliani: very weak, considering they both made personal appearances and still couldn’t beat Ron Paul.***

And this is a state in which Giuliani was supposed to be strong.
