Interesting comments by Fred. Either his internal polling is showing something different from publicly available data, or he shouldn’t have raised expectations like this.
CBS just following the template that was created when they saw him as a real threat.
he’s lazy
he’s tired
doesn’t care
second is good enough
George P Bush supports him.
Think the family will try to wiggle him into contention so the next generation is well positioned?
Yes, because, when Fred isn’t Fred, who is?
Polls show Republican undecideds still at over 50%. There are plenty of fence sitters and they have seen Rudy, Mitt, and the other candidates for over a year.
I wish Fred would come in first in Iowa
This is just another political hit piece from the relentless Liberal John Bently. He’s doing his very best to sink Fred’s campaign, and I do not believe anything he publishes. It is trash!
He’s got my vote in NH, no matter what he decides.
He needs to come in second because he’s running for VP.
Thompson supporters have been telling us Thompson will cruise to win in Iowa powered by his recent surge...guess Thompson’s didn’t get that memo.
Well... on the street, here in Iowa.... there is NO SIGN of Fred or any support. His 10% is Name ID only and I’d not be surprised to see him place 5th or 6th and be statistically tied for last place. He just doesn’t have ANY game on the ground where it matters.
Fred is obviously signaling something he’s seeing via internal polling. Here’s hoping he’s right.
This sounds like the beginning of the end to me. I dont see why you would say that unless youre planning to drop out if you dont come in second, and I dont see much chance of that happening.
I think this means Fred is already thinking of dropping out and endorsing McCain for New Hampshire in hopes he can help him beat Romney.
Remember this guy?
He was JOKING about coming in second, people!
