I think the inference is Don would say, no sing rather, “Turn out the lights, the party is over.”
A Hunter endorsement for Fred would be useful.
Except Fred will be gone soon, not Hunter.
Post 73 shows a very interesting trend. I think it is very obvious that the ‘known by name candidates’ were out there strong in the beginning and have dropped by half. The trend must have been picked up on by the MSM types and that is why lower tiers keep getting blocked out of events.
I agree.
>>>A Hunter endorsement for Fred would be useful.
Not ‘useful’; you mean lifeline.
“Except Fred will be gone soon, not Hunter.”
I expect you’re correct. Hunter can stick around as long as he wants to. I think he could pick up a few delegates along the way. If Fred doesn’t run well in SC he’s toast.
great minds and all....
CharlesWayneCT, I haven’t agreed with you on all that much re: Romney and Thompson, but I do agree with you on ARG. As has been pointed out, they’ve been over-predicting McCain in every state, then pulling back somewhat at each actual election.
Interesting that in this ARG poll they show just about half of (self-identified) Independents supporting McCain. That’s pretty disproportionate to the overall breakdown.
