If you can’t lead, you shouldn’t win.

Good news on the poll. Thank you!

Fred has got them running scared. This report is pure BS. Fred will stay in past SC and I believe will have gained so much ground by then that he will be a lock for the nomination.

Heh, the chance that Fred would drop out and endorse a Massachusetts liberal like Romney is slim to none, and Slim left town

But the chances he will endorse an Arizona Amnesty pushing, gangster of 14 liberal are huge.

Another media ploy, Fred just got in the race, comes in 3rd in Iowa, FRED is in and FRED will be the Republican Nominee!

I think Thompson’s still in it. A Southern man’s not going to wear out a pair of shoes and an excellent Chevy pickup for nothing. And...third place after the smear and the MSM’s Soviet-style “non-person” treatment: that’s Huge. He’s connecting despite the powers arrayed against him.

South Carolina next.

What was that? Something about Fred in fourth or fifth place? Hmm?

Enjoy New Hampshire, South Carolina will be a whole new ball game.

“I really hope he endorses Romney. “

Hope ya were not holding your breath. Wait... on second thought...

“We need all the help we can get.”

You got THAT right.
