"In this media age, Thompson could have shot to the top but he would have to have had to immediately siezed his historical moment. He didn’t."

[Eddie01]

Now the question is: did he wait too long? And did he miss his moment in history? Time Magazine says the answer is most likely YES.

Well that's it then. The definitive, final word on the matter has been spoken.

or

Someone's afraid Fred will beat Hillary and they would be correct. Nice to see the fear flowing like a river from the left.

“Time Magazine says the answer is most likely YES.”

As Time Magazine goes, so goes Newsweak.

This issue will be decided at the polls next year, not by Liberal magazine pundits.

With the Holiday Season upon us, and the first primary right after the New Year, it will be interesting to see if Freds seemingly new interest in the race will be too late or right on time.

He has much ground to make up. In the early primaries, when momentum does count, he is not in the lead anywhere except for maybe tied in South Carolina.

Romney and Huckabee have Iowa, Romney has New Hampshire, and is at least tied (some polls say ahead) in South Carolina, Michigan has Rudy, and Romney second,Florida has Rudy, and then we go into Super Tuesday, which Rudy dominates in the delegate rich states.

Unless things change drastically in the next month, (and we all know that they could) I do not see a feasible path to victory for Fred, despite his 2nd place national lead.

Can anyone give me a feasible path to victory?

I know many complain (maybe rightfully so) about the MSM seemingly downgrading Freds chances, but they realize that victory can only come through primaries, and if you don't lead in any of the early states money, and support historically dry up.

If Joe Gandelman were sincere about wanting to know whether Thompson has missed his “historical moment,” he would have waited until after the primaries.

This article has no substance. Written at the end of November of 07, it is irrefutably a desperate attempt to sway opinion of Thompson and has nothing whatsoever resembling honest inquiry.

>>>>>Has Time Expired For Fred Thompson’s 2008 Republican Presidential Nomination Candidacy?

No.

But I'm sure Giuliani is sitting back and enjoying how this GOP primary is unfolding.

Not real busy today, are you, danoo1????

[Wonder Warthog]

Taking some time off from shilling for the “progressive consevative” Huckabee to bash a real conservative, I see.

[airborne]

One look at the source tells me that it is anything but “The Moderate Voice”.

Links to all kinds of lefist sites like DU and DailyKOS.

The people in charge of running Fred’s campaign have mismanaged it so far - but it’s not too late to fix it.

[Rick_Michael]

No.

[CatQuilt]

If Time Magazine thinks Fred is doing something wrong, it’s obvious...Fred is on the right track. Woo hoo!

[A_Tradition_Continues]

The Moderate Voice? What is the Moderate Voice? I think they are jumping on the anti-Fred bandwagon a little late. Their comments lack the passion or shall I say “fire in the belly” to really mean anything substantial in the competitive marketplace. Seems to me “The Moderate Voice” should close their doors. They don’t have a chance of surviving the competition.

[proudofthesouth]

The MSM doesn’t want Fred elected!

[Petronski]

Huckabee’s liberal racism is not going to fly in the GOP, I don’t care how pro-life he is.

[FreedomPoster]

So now you’re just purely posting articles taking down Fred, and not just sneaking “slam Fred” posts into the threads about Huckabee, whom you shill for.

Do you really think you help your candidate with this behavior?

[Josh Painter]

The Moderate Voice? You seem to be confused. This is a conservative site. You may want to try someplace such as lucianne.com where you will find yourself among like-minded people.

[upsdriver]

While I don’t share your admiration for Huckabee, keep up the good work.

Fred's appearance this morning on Fox News Sunday was a major bust. he was hesitant in his answers, had a nervous cough that came up everytime he was asked a difficult question, just a really poor performance. He got really defensive and accused Fox of campaigning against him...Fox working against him? He's delusional

Fred Barnes and Charles Krauthamer were simply telling the truth. Fred's campaign has been...uninspiring to say the least. I believe that this article is spot on. He had a shot to roll the whole crowd up in one fell swoop, but he stumbled coming out of the blocks and it is highly doubtful if he has a chance of recovering.

I wish it was otherwise. I was one of the first to hop on board the Thompson bandwagon, but his decision to delay and delay and delay followed by the faltering first steps pretty much killed all the momentum anticipation of his entering had built up.

I hate to say it, but I think his current push is too little, too late. I hope I'm wrong, but I'm afraid it's--R.I.P. Thompson campaign.
