He's dropping out just to endorse the one candidate who consistently polls lower than he does? Unlikely.

It will be Thompson or Romney. My guess is Thompson, but I can see Romney if he doesn't think Thompson can win.

The other possibility is that he's simply announcing that he can no longer afford to actively campaign, but is still leaving his name on the ballot wherever he's filed. The only real reason to formally withdraw is to endorse someone else, though.

So endorse a moderate or a rock ribbed conservative that has more than championed his #1 issue?

Tanc will not endorse an open border, ("ASPIRATIONS OF CITIZENSHIP" FOR ILLEGALS) like FREE-FALL FRed. Since FRed would never appoint an immigration hawk like Hunter or Tancredo as his running mate when he’s already slotted another candidate like his good friend, John McLame for the job, who does that leave?

More likely FRed (if handed the nomination - he certainly won't WORK for it) would seek a LIEberal like Rudy, Romney or Huckabee to be his Veep choice since they are all “more popular” than McLame or if he needs a few dollars even a cut-n-run LIEberal-friendly candidate like Ron Paul since he raises more money than the rest of the field (ask Al Gore or John Kerry about Soros $$$ and media polls turning into votes).

Given your “logic”, we should both drop our support for our chosen candidate and rush out to rally behind John McCain or one of other media-annointed RINOs....just because the dinosaur media says they can win. After all they were all popular here on FR too, once upon a time and all have had their moment in the sun with phony media polls.

Regardless if they are 1%, 5% or 51% of the vote, Hunter and Tancredo have my support since they are the only ones who are SERIOUS about our nations sovereignty.
