Dear Conservatives,

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone. Please remember to vote for Fred Thompson, the consistent conservative with plans to fix what’s wrong with our country, without ruining what is right: http://www.fred08.com/Principles/PrinciplesSummary.aspx?View=OnTheIssues

To me, it is beyond baffling that Duncan Hunter fails to score in the top 6 among conservative Republicans.

I'd like to see the breakdown as it relates to flakiness.

My guess is something like this:

Ron Paul 100%
Alan Keyes 100%
John McCain 95%
Rudy Giuilialialialialani 90%
Mike Huckabee 85%
Mitt Romney 80%
Fred Thompson 20%
Duncan Hunter 0%

Show’s to go ya’ who is in charge of the Republican party anymore...

[unspun]

I don't see anyone I'd like to bank on, in the bunch.

Merry Christmas

Go ahead. Prove my point. Get me banned.

Huckabee has seen the biggest jump—15 percentage points (41% now while a month ago 26% said he was moderate or liberal). Still, 43% view him a politically conservative (up five points from a month ago).

This indicates there is a lag time in these polls as I believe that with each passing day, Huck is perceived as more liberal and is losing support. This is what I see on the ground in Iowa.

Man, Hunter isn’t even on the radar.

[CharlesWayneCT]

Among republicans, only Fred Thompson is seen as less liberal than Mitt Romney, and only 8% see Mitt as Liberal (I think they all post here at FR).

[CharlesWayneCT]

Also, about the same number see Fred as moderate as see Romney as a moderate, and Fred’s and Romney’s Moderate/liberal numbers are only 4 points apart, which may well be in the margin of error, as may be the “liberal” separation of 5% (if the poll is the typical +/- 4, or even +/- 3, Romney could actually be as low as 5% and Fred 6% in the liberal category.

This pretty much puts to bet the idea that Romney is some wild-eyed liberal.
