For Thompson And McCain, It's Too Little Too Late

[Huck]

I just perused his archives. You should too, and then tell me if he’s still a dunderhead:

[Vaquero]

why am I not surprised you call Thompson people goons without provocation? You are baiting.

[1Old Pro]

Then why is Fred doing BETTER than Romney in most polls?

I guess I'd have to see those polls. I wish it were true. I wish Fred was doing better than Rudy in most polls too.

[Huck]

This isn’t Guliani fluff. If you read his other articles, he’s not a fan of Guliani. He simply doesn’t have Fredhead blinders on.

[LibLieSlayer]

“A Romney Huckabee ticket sounds plausible.”

Maybe in NJ.

[Calpernia]

I don’t think he would vote a DNC ticket from reading him:

[Huck]

I don’t think so. Did you check out his other articles? I did:

All you have to do is look around here. While Romney is doing better in NH and Iowa...that’s about it.

Rooty is a big lib, Huckabee is a stealth lib, and Romney has conveniently migrated to the non-lib side of the house just in time for primary season

Exactly. We have had ambitious cads whisper sweet nothings in our ears before; Rudy, Huck and Mitt are finding it harder to deceive conservatives.

[steve8714]

Romney has the same problem Dole had.

[Heman11]

There is one more issue not mentioned about McCain. While he seems to be a hawk on deficit spending and Earmarks, He does not have a good grasp on the stimulative affect of tax rate reductions on the economy.

[absolootezer0]

A Romney Huckabee ticket sounds plausible nauseating

ah, that looks better.

[OB1kNOb]

I don’t think any of the frontrunner GOP candidates are Free Republic Conservatives. I also think the “frontrunners” are down to Mitt and Rudy.

Sad but apparently headed that way. And that's precisely why the GOP is going down the tubes with conservative voters. Conservatives recognize a left-leaning liberal political pig with conservative lip-stick smeared on them for appearances sake. The GOP is in a sad state of disrepair when it has to settle for MSM-made "top-tier" candidates that have to talk conservative (but act like nanny-stater leftists) in order to get the party nomination. Makes me realize that even Ronald Reagan couldn't win his own party's nomination now.

[McGruff]

Who is Doug Patton and why should I let him decide who I should vote for?

[Badeye]

Hmmmm. I stand corrected.

[Greg F]

I’ll be home on election day if Romney is the candidate. The Mormons are a cult.

Duncan Hunter is the solution and the problem is the unnecessary self-destruction of the conservative movement because we have let the eft wing media and the self-interested corporate and wealthy big money donors decide who our Republican candidates should be.

[steve8714]

I haven’t seen the kind of attacks widespread as you suggest. This can be a rough game, however, like park tackle football among friends.
I support Thompson because I think he has the best combo of emotional connection to the electorate and good principles and ideas on governing. Romney And Giuliani are incomplete, and some good men (Hunter, Tancredo) couldn’t get traction.

[Huck]

Thanks, Badeye. It’s worth a look, I think. He’s a Fred skeptic who is concerned about Rudy winning. That’s what he seems to be. I’d say a lot of Fred skeptics fall in that category. And we’re not sold on Romney. Hunter is not a player. Fred could win despite his weaknesses. GWB did. But it’d be helpful if ppl looked at the situation with open eyes.

[papasmurf]

More GOP sponsored blather.

When will they “get it’? When we leave them, running at full speed, by the thousands?

They are well on their way to becoming “insignificant”, just like the MSM.
