Yep!
After demolishing the phony Willard by about 10 points in Iowa (thanks to the conservatives/evangelicals of IA)...
10 1/2 year Southern Conservative/Evangelical Huck went on over to athiestic New Hampshire (less churches per capita than any other state) AND came in a strong third — leading up to SC where Huck drew 30%+ of the vote with the lion’s share AMONG CONSERVATIVES and CHRISTIANS. But in 3rd place but waaaaaaaaaaay back of Huck, Sleepy Freddy Thompson took enough (15% max) to allow his friend, Mushy Moderate McCain to squeak out a win over the conservative Huck, 33%-30%. I was there campaigning my butt off even on snowy election day.
Will Romney be this year’s McCain in South Carolina? Not if evangelical conservatives unite.
Flash in the pan.
