50% of Republicans would not vote for Fred Thompson? (today's CNN/WMUR New Hampshire poll)

Sounds like typical CNN BS to me.

Link to today's 26-page New Hampshire poll report (PDF).

Fred isn’t even campaigning in New Hampster.

Hey, a screenshot with the featured content circled, that's my trick! ;-)

[Alter Kaker]

The poll put Thompson at 4%. That's broadly in line with other NH polls:

1. CBS-NY Times last week put Thompson in NH at 5%;

2. Globe-UNH poll last week put Thompson in NH at 3%;

3. Marist Poll last week put Thompson in NH at 5%;

4. Rasmussen last week put Thompson in NH at 7%

Here's another one of the N.H. Republicans that were polled.

Perhaps, but that doesn’t make this poll valid.

I tend to think these polls are designed to get people to back the candidates that CNN wants them to back.

answer at #28

[DoughtyOne]

That’s right.

[codercpc]

In NH, politics are personal. As the first in the nation primary, they are used to the personal touch.

This is the State that Fred basically "flipped off" by refusing to participate in that first debate, and appear on Leno instead. This is also the State that his advisers have basically said they weren't even participating in, in order to concentrate in South Carolina instead.

I have yet to see a poll that he was in double digits. So this makes perfect sense.

New Hampshire just doesn't get the Fred.

[JCEccles]

That is evidence that he’s a real lousy campaigner. Fred is also losing ground in the polls.

Fred seems to do best in his scripted YouTube moments and when he sits down to talk one-on-on with political commentators.

The feedback from the stump is generally disappointment. He arrives late, makes a short desultory speech, and tends to leave immediately. He doesn't give the impression that he enjoys campaigning. I can't say that I blame him. But the presidential campaign is a marathon. You just can't go through the motions and expect to win.

In other words, you’re an opportunistic troll, camped at your keyboard, reloading any Fred-thread that does (or even, as in this obvious case, DOES NOT) touch on Hunter. And when you find that thread, you post your usual spam for the 1,682nd time.

Troll. Hunter is currently my 2d choice, but obsessive, trolling, other-GOP-candidate-bashing supporters of his like you make that hard to maintain.

Who had a half hour interview with snuffalufagus on “This Week” yesterday?

Hint: It wasn’t Duncan Hunter

[Kevmo]

This is why small insignificant New England states shouldn’t be the first to open ther polls.
***I agree. This whole race, with a cross-dressing, gun-grabbing Open-borders liberal as the leading republican candidate is direct evidence that the process is broken.

[jdm]

Thanks in advance for the nightmare. :O)

[Kevmo]

But if you’re a Fred supporter who worships name recognition, it will go right over your head.

[SJackson]

No way of knowing without a given reason, but I find these results hard to believe.

[jdm]

Good post.

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

I’m sorry but that just doesn’t ring true. Not so much about Thompson but about Rudy McRomney.

[silentreignofheroes]

Total Recall..?

[wolfpat]

I think they’re scared of a Thompson nomination. Trouble is, many in the GOP power circles seem to be scared of it too.
