I’m in the conservative base and I don’t think much of Thompson.
I’m voting for Romney, who I believe is more conservative, more articulate, has a much better presence, and therefore could also pull in swing voters. Thompson reminds me of Dole.
Go FRed.
Rasmussin National: “For the week ending September 23, it’s Thompson 26% and Giuliani 22%.
Occupying a precarious niche somewhere between the frontrunners and the also-rans are John McCain and Mitt Romney. Both men were early favorites of Washington pundits but haven’t done as well among Republican primary voters. During the past four months, McCain’s support has ranged from 11% to 14%. Romney’s range has been from 11% to 15%.
“It’s no secret former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney’s strategy for winning the Republican nomination hinges on racking up early wins in both Iowa and New Hampshire. But two recently released polls indicate Mr. Romney may be losing his grip on the Granite State, despite years of familiarity from nearby Boston TV coverage. A Rasmussen Reports survey released last Tuesday showed Mr. Romney’s lead over Rudy Giuliani dwindling over the course of the last month from 12 points to just three points. A survey by CNN and WMUR TV released yesterday indicated a similar downward trend: the 15-point lead Mr. Romney held over Mr. Giuliani in July is now down to a single point. Overall, Mr. Romney’s lead in the RealClearPolitics Average for New Hampshire has slipped to 4%, its lowest level since the end of May.”
It’s early.
