FDT is within striking distance of Romney.

If Thompson comes in second and Huckabee first Romney is immediately KO'd of the contest and Thompson could pick up many former Romney voters for the rest of the primary campaign.

That’s a pretty good analysis. Thompson seems to be a second choice for almost all of the supporters of the other candidates—I can’t imagine Hunter or Huckabee supporters, for example, going for Giuliani or McCain.

So Huckabee is ahead in Iowa and South Carolina.

“His Iowa numbers are impressive. But look at New Hampshire, where you don’t have that evangelical Christian base,” said Coker.

The Huckster is soft on ILLEGALS

No thanks.

Thanks for the ping. A couple of weeks ago many here and nationally were claiming that the GOP was down to a two-person race (Romney/Giuliani).

The best way to describe the race so far is “unpredictable,” and I expect that will continue to be the case. It’s wide open — go Thompson!

You guys might as well be having a discussion on where to put the deck chairs on a sinking ship. All of these GOP candidates are chasing after the same base of Republicans who voted in 2004 & saw their numbers decline after the 2006 mid-term thumping.

The polls simply aren't factoring in the newly registered Republicans that Ron Paul has brought in.

The link you used does not work. Do you have a working link which goes to the story?

Well, yea, Huckabee would step ahead of Romney in the bible-belt states just by saying,’Gotcha’. Fred Thompson has an illegal alien agenda though and that’s ‘page two’ in the bible-belt states.

Huckabee is another liberal RINO. Last thing we need.
