If Fred wins this, will this build him momentum?

I’m positive about Fred all the time.
I have actively posted on all things Fred since the earliest speculation of him entering the race.

I do happen to think he isn’t campaigning nearly to his potential, as opposed to someone like Mitt Romney who I think has reached the maximum amount of support he is capable of generating as a candidate. So naturally I want Fred to tap into his potential as a candidate. That’s what’s needed for him to become the nominee, rather than someone else who would be far less preferable.

" There have also been calls on behalf of candidates from national GOP figures - including Mary Matalin, a former counselor to Vice President Dick Cheney, who is supporting Thompson, the former U.S. senator from Tennessee."

I wonder if Dick Cheney is a Fred Thompson supporter ?
It would be great to have Dick Cheney come out in full support for Fred and endorse him soon.

It says that Dick Cheney’s forumer counselor is supporting Fred,,, but, it would be great to have Dick Cheney say a few good things for Fred.

Great quote of the day ( it helps Fred ):

"The thing about Wyoming people, they just like the straight talk.

According to NRO: " Discussions with local county chairs suggest the following results, or something along these lines, would not be surprising: eight delegates for Romney, two delegates for Thompson, one delegate for Ron Paul, and one delegate for Duncan Hunter."

May well be. I’m only reporting what I read on the www.wygop.org/ web page listing the county convention info that included starting times. It did mention that one should contact the locals to make sure the info listed was correct.

In any case some 980 predetermined convention goers will select the 12 delegates and 12 alternates . We’ll probably have indications thoughout the day as each convention completes if one could find them. The wygop website doesn’t provide a lot of daily data or so it seems to me.
