Go, Fred!
Fred is getting attention of MSM? Wow...gosh...Go Fred go!
Fred is holding in there, and South Carolina could bring his campaign right to the front if he pulls a big win.
I hope some fiscal conservatives in SC wake up and head to the polls before its too late.
I’d like him to win, but he better go go soon before he is gone gone.
Fred needs to get more than 10% and a 4th place finish in S.C. and to do so he is going to have to attack McCain with a scorched earth message.
If not, 10 and 4th place may leave the last viable GOP Conservative out of the race.
See BS is after Fred even more blatantly than Fox News Channel. Even ZOGBY has Fred AHEAD OF ROMNEY.
All he needs is VOTES in SOUTH CAROLINA.
The money will follow. He raised 1.1 million ONLINE ONLY after a good debate performance.
Exactly. This hands off on McQueeg has me worried. He needs funding. I don’t think finishing 4th is going to get it. He will probably pass Mitt for 3rd but it will be a distant third. He needs to finish a lot higher to tap into the money sources.
ARG has Fred at 13% and McCain at 33%.
Fixed.
Yup. Fred has pulled ahead of Romney in Zobgy’s NATIONAL and South Carolina polls.
if thompson doesnt win or come in a strong 2nd in sc, hes dropping out.
Who is the Whig candidate?

COLUMBIA, S.C., Jan. 17 /Standard Newswire/ -- South Carolinians keep flipping for Fred Thompson! The crowds are packed and the enthusiasm is palatable. Fred's momentum is clear and significant.
The proof?
Rising poll numbers, strong and consistent fundraising numbers, his 11-day bus tour through South Carolina, and above all else: the unmistakable support from new supporters.
Watch the new videos of enthusiastic and confident voters flipping for Fred:
Beth Atwater, relative of the late Lee Atwater, used to support Gov. Romney. But after "researching the issues, Fred Thompson was the conservative on all the issues. So I will be supporting him..."

Jeannie used to support Sen. McCain because "I didn't think I had a real choice." She flipped to Fred because "he said what I think the country needs to hear. He spoke honestly and forthrightly."

Mitt.
I wonder how much of the poll data is from the days before the push in SC. This poll was taken over the course of a week.
only slightly more than half the voters had a good idea about whom they were going to support on election day. Nearly 40 percent of the voters were unsure about who would receive their support.
That is good news.
Final Zogby poll in NH had McCain beating Romney by 1. Romney beat McCain by 9.
So much for Zogby.
Fred is going to have to do more than flip some voters, he will have to go right after McCain if he is to win the nomination or at least save the party from a McCain nomination.
Press on in SC and on to Florida.
Right-O, and it's leftocrat cheerleader ZOGBY, no less.
