It seems to me that all this Fred Thompson news is too little, too late. By now, no one is listening or hearing anything about Fred Thompson. He should have been more forceful last September when he finally made his announcement to run (after dilly-dallying around for about 4 months).

I actually prefer Fred to the others in policy and in demeanor. However, he seems to be off of the radar screen for the news media and for the voters. It’s a shame. I hope I am wrong about this, and he manages to make a surge, but I am not holding my breath.

Too late? How is that? Huckabee shot up in a matter of weeks not months. I don't understand why people don't just support the candidate that fits their beliefs. This too late, unelectable seems like ploys from the Huck/McCain alliance.

Fred was 3rd in Iowa, over McCain. McCain won NH by getting the Dem crossover vote. Michigan will go to Romney probably. If Fred wins SC we would have 4 winners in 4 states with Fred winning the most conservative one with closed primary's.

So, are you gonna vote for him or will you let some others influence your decision?

“I actually prefer Fred to the others in policy and in demeanor.”

Then quit complaining and start supporting him. Who cares when he got in. He’s in now and he’s the best candidate.
