I think Thompson, being the “grassroots” candidate, fully expected to get the socon vote by default. Unfortunately for him, socons have not found Romney and Huckabee to be nearly as distasteful as was expected by the Thompson camp. Also, McCain’s supporters, who were supposed to bail to Thompson as McCain fell, returned back to McCain, boosting him back into the race.
Fred will be the man........He talks commonsense on the isses and doesn’t constantly flip and flop like rudi or mitten.
