You both don't like the way Fred has campaigned but you like his message? Well, shouldn't that be enough?

Well it's enough to make him my candidate (as he has been from the start) but obviously not enough for 90% of GOP voters.

It seems to me it takes great courage on Fred's part to do things his way and not listen to the chattering class. It has served him quite well to this point.

No it hasn't. Fred is in 5th place and single digits now. He may fall behind Ron Paul at this point. It isn't courage, it's foolishness.

You can complain about a few positions or stances, but Fred is a conservative and a federalist. That stands out.

You know what stands out?
His foreign policy experience. He was Chairman of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs. He was Chairman for the International Security Advisory Board at the State Department. That is what stands out. But did you even know that?

The fact that most people don't is also what stands out.
The fact that Fred has not made this the central issue in his campaign is what stands out. The fct that Fred has kept his national security credentials the best kept secret of the entire campaign season is what stands out. It stands out as evidence of the most incompetently run campaign in modern American history. It stands out as how the natural front-runner can sabotage his own campaign so bad that he winds up in last place. Gary Hart at least had a good time blowing his nomination.

Do you think Fred really wants to win?
(Please answer since I’ll probably get 20 flames just for asking the question.)

Last place? go back to some more delusional thinking, I suppose Ron Paul will win with that kind of logic.

Since not ONE vote has yet been cast, I guess that remains to be seen.
