I never said you sabotaged anything. I was commenting on the reality of the press coverage. Fred didn't do things the way THEY wanted him to do them, so they either trashed him, or ignored him. I didn't have a problem with the way Fred campaigned. He got out there and met with voters almost every day after he announced, but folks would be forgiven if they didn't know it. His own publicists might have filed reports with the media every day, I don't know, but it would be my guess that they were ignored, if they were filed.
Fred did take his issues seriously, but it seems, although conservatives talk a lot about wanting smaller government, lower taxes, a real reduction in abortions, and stronger security for this country, they didn't bother to vote for the one candidate who espoused all those views. Their loss.
