This has got to stop... If he finishes third, it will be clar that all he’s doing is splitting the conservative vote and allowing the *ahem* less-conservative opponents to win. Tancredo knew when to call it quits, and I admire him greatly for that. He was my guy, but there was never the illusion that he might actually win. This will only aid the idea that Thompson’s in the race to divide the anti-McCain vote.

All of his opponents (save Hunter) are less-conservative.

If Thompson gets OUT, that is allowing his less-conse... LIBERAL opponents to win.

That doesn't make sense to me, what conservative vote is he splitting? From where I sit there doesn't appear to be enough conservatives in the GOP now to elect a conservative dogcatcher, so who is there to split? Fred and Hunter are the only conservatives left in the race, and Hunter is polling around 1% last time I checked.

If Fred drops out I stop caring who wins, because the others, except Hunter of course, are all liberal RINOs. Rudy is the worst RINO of the bunch, but the others are bad enough themselves. If Fred is out by the time I get to vote next month I will vote for Hunter, but I know that will mean zilch for all the good it will do.

If the choices next November are either Rudy, McCain, or Huck on the GOP ticket and the Beast, Sheik Obama, or Edwards on the other side then it's official, the US really is on the road to hell like the TV preachers are saying it is.

Fred needs to drop out, call Romney and accept a VP position, then throw his support to Mitt.

And if Fred leaves, who do you suggest the REAL conservative is?
