All this talk about “last stands” is Boston Glob propaganda and wishful thinking. Even in an article about his rise in the standings, they had to work it into the first sentence.
He is the only conservative in the race who has any chance at all of winning. As such, he will continue to gather delegates while the other candidates fight it out. There is no clear winner, and the three liberal leaders are all vulnerable.
It’s just too bad that the National Review and some of the other conservative gurus jumped on the wrong bandwagons, since the MSM certainly isn’t going to help Fred get his message out.

Money keeps Fred going. They said in a Fred fund-raising letter that Fred was in all the way to super duper Tuesday ...

No!
The Reagan era is NOT over... there just ISN’T anyone running who is even CLOSE to Reagan... wild delusions and wishful thinking not withstanding.

Bret’s record when its below freezing is pretty good. Forecast for Sunday in GB is a high of 5 degrees, winds 10-15 mph. Getting close to ice bowl conditions.

There’s no reason to drop out before Super Tuesday but if Fred can’t come within five points of a win in South Carolina, I think the Fat Lady is warming up.

Where have the editors on this paper been for the last 7 years? McCain has done enough liberal bad to disqualify 6 men. The man is a walking inflated ego with a love of all things liberal. The only thing I question about Fred is his perceived friendship with Johnny.

Sorry, but you posted an older poll.
Zogby’s newest poll and your older poll is listed here on their website:
http://www.zogby.com/news/ReadNews.dbm?ID=1428
Romney’s back in 3rd. :-)
But don’t worry, Zogby had McCain leading Romney the night before the MI primary. LOL
To: Roy Tucker
Now that’s strange as the poll conducted by Reuters/C-SPAN/Zogby on the 17th (date of article) shows Romney leading Fred by 2 points.

Another reason I cant wait for these newspapers to fold. Actually, I find newspapers very helpful as they almost always tell me who I should NOT vote for.

Certainly Fred lacks the Gipper’s charisma, but policy wise they are pretty much the same thing.

I think he will do O.K. and I think he should stay as long as he can. The brokered convention would work in his favor.

I fear it’s too late for Thompson. Had he had more PASSION and ENERGY when he first started to run, I believe the eventual outcome would not be third. People are wondering, how he can win at this late date when he REFUSES to change how he comes across. He’s got the BEST STANCE ON ALL POSITIONS, but there’s no energy there. I am still shocked to see he’s a terrible public speaker.

Agreed. In fact, a brokered convention would benefit three guys: Thompson, Romney and Hunter.

He is the BEST conservative in the race but he’s refusing to change how he comes across. It’s not working and he isn’t trying to change it ... he’s letting folks down.

He will ENDORSE John McCain and thus, for all of you who have been gnashing your teeth in denial about who Thompson really is... and what he really stands for... YOU will be the ones calling him dead.
***I agree. It may not happen in 48 hours, but when it does, more than half of his support here on Free Republic will evaporate.
