Most of his listeners will not take marching orders from him and will certainly not make their choice on who to vote for based on what Rush Limbaugh tell them.

Do you really believe that most of his listeners will vote for Thompson because Rush Limbaugh endorses him? If you do then let us stop this discussion.

Here is my opinion:

Fred may be a reluctant candidate, but once he decided to get into the race, he has an obligation to do his best to win.

If you enter a race, you should do your best to win that race. You owe it to yourself.

I don’t think Fred is doing his best to win this nomination....and that is what is bothering most conservatives.

It won't be because Rush endorses Fred, it will be because Rush will point them iin the direction to LOOK at what Fred brings to the table.

And yes, if you DON'T think Rush has an influence, we don't need to discuss further.
