Wagering is a man-thing. I don’t wager. I’ll be disappointed if Thompson ever drops out. It will be as everyone expected if Hunter drops out.
My assessment is that I’d expect Thompson to drop out before Hunter if Thompson has made the assessment that he can’t win the nomination. For the following reasons:
Intelligence
Management acumen
Ability to make hard decisions
Respect for his family, supporters and campaign staff
Respect for the process and interest of the country
