“This is a gun show he just attended, if he can’t get votes from this crowd, in this state which is probably the most conservative state in the union probably, then his message just probably won’t play anywhere else,” said Baker.
I think their vote of McCain & Huckabee today clearly disspelled that honor (most conservative state in the union).
I’m seriously down...how are we going to stop McCain from rolling now? The votes of the american people have disappointed me.
McCain will have front runner hung on him. The key to his temper is illegal immigration and this needs to be pounded. The MSM will carry his water on this issue until the general if he were to be the nominee. So it will be up to the people to arouse his distemper on this issue and we have time now till FL. Get his flip/flop on illegal immigration out there and arouse his anger and all the reasons he is unfit will come to light.
I’ve given $ to Fred, but even he violated my basic requirement of executive experience in the President. I have a unfavorable impression of Senators as it is.
Unfortunately I’m left with Romney and Jimmy Carter...
Feh. SC has an open primary.
Slice and dice the exit polls a bit more, you'll find a lot of people who thought McCain was pro-military and anti-illegal immigration.
And that Huckabee is NOT Jimmuh Carter.
This is a case where the media blackout of Thompson is hurting.
NO cheers, unfortunately.
“I think their vote of McCain & Huckabee today clearly disspelled that honor (most conservative state in the union).”
I got out there and voted for Fred. Sadly, it looks like not enough other folk did the same.
Fred’s organization was lacking here. I saw FAR fewer Fred Thompson signs than those for McCain, Romney, Huckabee and Paul. I’d say I saw more Ron Paul signs than any other.
Fred did do a good job with last minute radio and TV ads, but they were too little too late I think.
“I’m seriously down...how are we going to stop McCain from rolling now? The votes of the american people have disappointed me.”
I think we need to be patient, and Republicans need to start voting on principle rather than voting based on “who we think can win”. That’s the only way we’ll end up with a conservative candidate.
