Fred needs to fight on all the way to the convention. He can succeed at the GOP convention where Ronald Reagan failed in 1976.
Fred’s fight will be on the convention floor, for leadership and party unity.
Fred has an important job to do still. He must keep the nomination far out of reach of Mike Huckabee. And he must bring the party together as the consensus conservative choice when no candidate comes up with enough delegates to win the nomination.
Keep on fighting Fred!
Fred does not know how to fight. He would rather chill out with some brandy and smoke cigars and fondly remember when he was a senator chasing skirts and doing nothing. But hey, for some reason people think that he is some great conservative or something.
It’s admirable when one is so enthusiastic about his/her candidate. But there comes a time to be realistic.
FredHeads aren’t there yet. It sounds like Fred is. His speech last night, with no hint of fighting on, signalled he’s throwing in the towel. He doesn’t strike me as the type to carry on a quixotic effort.
I’d like to say it was fun while it lasted. But, looking back, it was more frustrating than inspiring. Fred never did what was necessary to convice voters he was a contender. I like what he says, but his campaign was a disorganized, unfocused mess.
