It’s called DOUGH, RE. MI. Fred, unfortunately, is going to have to fold. We can only hope Fred is on everyone's list for Veep.

Time on the ground in Florida is being wasted as Senator Thompson ponders his next step.

Isn't Florida winner-take-all? If so, spending time and money there won't benefit him anything and he ought to fight other battles.

Yep. I for one welcome a brokered convention. It will be good for the process as well as the party and may end of giving are party the conviction we have so sorely been lacking.

The GOP Primary system is causing a severe case of Electile Disfunction.

Stick a fork into U.S. conservatism! It’s dying, and it truly will be over for this country soon enough!

“Uncommitted” is not on the GOP ballot, so what is Plan B?

“Then there are those remarks by former Governor Mike Huckabee that were particularly offensive. “The fact of Fred Thompson’s being in the race took away some votes that we most likely had,” Huckabee told the dying organ of the Liberal Center, Time magazine.”

God is merciful.

May Gid bless Fred for that.

One thing the author screwed up early - only republicans need to be voting in these primaries, regardless what form they’re in. Open primaries have completely screwed the pooch when it comes to picking our candidates.

Huckabee’s god-complex is showing. For him to assume that those who voted for Fred would have ever voted for him is incredible. I would never and will NEVER vote for Huck.
I know many people like me.

Conservatism isn’t dying, the GOP just ignored it for the past 8 years.

FNC reported a few minutes ago that Fred has pulled out of the debate this week.


I'd rather be waterboarded than vote for McCain.
