“I merely pointed out that because of his history with McCain, if Fred should drop out, it’s quite likely he would endorse McCain”

Fred might endorse McCain for another reason also. I suspect Fred felt he was drafted by the conservative Republican base, and when he finally jumped in, pretty much because of the drumroll for his entry by the conservative Pub base, no one supported him very much from the very beginning of his campaign. There was no groundswell of support for him, either financially or otherwise. And one can’t blame it all on the MSM’s lack of attention to him; that shouldn’t stop Pubs from showing their support in spite of the MSM. So Fred might be very, very ticked off at the “conservative base”. Enough to thumb his nose at that base and swing his support to John McCain, knowing it will irritate mightily those that solicited his entry into the race in the first place.

As a FRED supporter from the beginning, I would like to have you explain where you get this absurd assumption that A. FRED will come out for Mclame and B. that true conservatives would just blindly follow his endorsement of the Major RINO Mclame.

Sounds like more of same old SORELOSERMAN huckleberry BS.
