Yet, he’s running second nationally. Go figure.

I don’t think FDT is out of it because Time says he is. I do think he’s running out of time to get out in front. I thought after he entered the race he would make it a 2 man primary between himself and Rudy. I was really expecting him to suck the air out every one else, leaving it a 2 man race, but so far that’s not how it’s worked. Fred hasn’t caught on as of yet, and in fact has recently been trending down, while Mitt, Huckabee, and even McCain have been trending up. I think it likely FDT carries a few southern states and a couple of mountain states, but I don’t think he can pull off the nomination without a serious comeback, and I just don’t see that happening.

Why is it, according to media articles of late, that everyone else has "plenty of time left to rev up their campaigns and spring ahead of the pack", except for Fred?

I guess media can't attack Fred on issues, so they are resorting to attacking how he is percieved by planting the suggestion he is somehow slower than the rest, doddling behind.
