I’d rather have Thompson. There hasn’t been a single vote cast; Thompson is still in this race.

Thompson tickled by Iowans’ independent voting streak
Radio Iowa
Republican presidential candidate Fred Thompson says it “tickles” him that Iowa voters have an independent streak that seems to counter the so-called “conventional wisdom” of Washington pundits.
“I’m always reminded of the Howard Dean race, you know, when all the experts flew in there and Al Gore flew in and Tom Harkin — he endorsed and it was a done deal what, later than this, in the process,” Thompson says. “Well, of course it wasn’t a done deal and the people of Iowa had decided that they themselves had a voice in the thing and they decided something totally different and that just tickles me to death to know that.”
Thompson says he’s “going to go from one end of Iowa to the other” as the Caucus campaign closes to give Iowans a chance to size him up in person. “I’m going to be spending a lot of time with them over the next few weeks and at the end of the day they’re going to have an opportunity to see if Fred Thompson is the kind of guy they feel like could be solid and strong and experienced and lead us through what may be turbulent times over these next several years,” Thompson says.
