Maybe I'm Tired, Should Have a Drink or Call It a Night [Kathryn Jean Lopez]
but am I crazy to not think this e-mail is not totally crazy (Peter, you are not allowed to answer):
I'm biased for Fred... Still, I can't help but wonder if a strong debate appearance prior to NH can siphon off some of Huck's supporters who become disenchanted, some of Mitt's supporters who think he's toast, and go into SC and win. He'll take TN, he'll take AL (his home state, actually), and do fine out west.
Also, I can't help but think that if every person who said, "Fred Thompson's got the best policies and attitude to be president, but he can't win," would actually vote for him, he'd be a shoo-in.
One more thing: Even on conservative outlets like National Review and The We...another periodical, the coverage has been very down. I scrolled through the list of stories on the candidates and the only one for Fred was the Politico story about his pending collapse. Nothing about Zogby noting a surge although it was mentioned in the text of the Corner. It's a bit disspiriting that the most conservative guy in the race doesn't seem to be able to get a decent story about him that doesn't predict his imminent doom.
