Here he tells the Log Cabin republicans what he has in store for the military. A GOAL that he stubbornly clung to in the CNN debate, he wants it. ============================================================

It's starting to work out as I thought: despite the Huckaboom, Mitt (especially his ground troops) will carry this pretty easily. McCain could come in #3.
It's Mitt and McCain in NH, where indies can vote in either primary, and depending on who the GOP frontrunner is, some indies might vote as Dems to see that Hillary loses. Gonna be interesting.
I still think Mitt will win the first four primaries, Fred will drop out, Huck will plummet, and Rudy will recover on Super Tues. for a four-way race.

Come on, Don-o. If you are as astute in history as you presume to be in your post, then you know that Lincoln wasn't even ON THE GOP BALLOT OF CANDIDATES going into the convention; that it has taken up to 103 ballots to nominate a candidate before; that Kennedy's nomination wasn't locked up even going into the convention.
This is absolutely no different than the "log cabin" campaign of 1840, or the notion that we should vote for "Old Tippecanoe" because he whipped some Indians. This is American politics, and it's the best system in the world.

I prefer Fred, and for that matter, Duncan. But if Mitt gets the nomination, I’ll vote for him. Probably also donate to him. He is, in my estimation, acceptable.
I haven’t given up on Fred, however. I can only hope he’s still in the running when the primaries come to my state.

All this surging and unsurging (desurging?) makes the process look pretty dumb. It does sound a whole lot like a little kid on a float yelling look I am swimming.

In order to receive an endorsement from the Log Cabin Republicans, or any of its affiliates, the candidate has to apply for it and meet several milestones. If a candidate is granted an endorsement, they sign a contract and receive a political consultant that represents the interests of the Log Cabin Republicans. So, if you vote for someone that is endorsed by the LCR or said affiliates, you are voting for their agenda. Not the candidates horse and pony show.
Application for endorsement:
Candidate Application Questionnaire

Interesting, LS (good to see your initials - Happy New Year, FRiend!).
I sure wish it were possible for Duncan Hunter to win...geez, every time you listen to the guy, it's exactly what a Conservative believes to be truth. Here's my DREAM TEAM.... Hunter/Bolton ;-) Freepmail me YOUR choice, would you? I really value your opinions.
Hope all is well with you!

not from much of the MSM who were pushing for Huckabee
I doubt Huckabee ever really surged....just the MSM initial attempt at getting Huckabee the Nomination by building some pretend ground swell....they know very well that Huck is the only candidate they (the DNC and the Media) can easily defeat....
From the get go I never believed in the "Huck" surge.....could be wrong, we'll just have to see....
IMHO....

That's the problem with Fred. He wants to phone it in instead of actually showing up.

I think Fred Thompson and John Edwards are gaining some last minute traction in Iowa. I expect them to do better than the polls say.
Thompson is getting most of the Tancredo supporters and taking some support away from Huckabee.
Edwards has a formidable caucus organization (me thinks many of the Obama supporters won’t show ... Obama will do worse than expected).
