I just don’t get it... I really don’t.
That is exactly how I felt on the night of our precinct caucus here in Iowa.
When I walked into the room I was flabbergasted at the number of McCain supporters there. For three days after, I kept asking "where did all these McCain people come from"? McCain didn't even campaign in Iowa except for the last three or four days before the caucus. I literally felt like I was in shell shock.
Neither do I.
Huckabee is a joke, and McCain... well I used to BE a McCain supporter until shortly after the 04 election.
Even used to tout him for 08.
Then the little incidents started to pile up so fast that you needed wings to stay above them.
In sum, McCain has become of the three candidates that I would not vote for under any circumstance.
- and one of those 3 is hillary!
It’s really very simple.
Fred may be the best ‘conservative’ (according to most on FR), but he is a wretched campaigner.
Now I expect most (non-personal) responses will be lementing a “lack of attention” or an “MSM conspiracy to keep Fred down”.
The biggest problem is that the person who should be the most animated about Fred ‘08....is Fred. He isn’t. Sorry, but that is a fact.
Watch him in interviews where he and his wife are there, and tell me who you think wants him to be president more; Fred Thompson or his wife.
Maybe he will turn it around, but I doubt it.
If he drops out after SC, you’ll see that it was a half-hearted attempt.
DITTO!!!
McCain in the lead?????? Oh heaven help us.
