No, polls aren’t the only thing that matters. But they do matter. And momentum matters. We’ll see what happens. I’m just commenting on the race, and right now, Fred’s sucking wind. My prediction is Huckabee wins. Fred in 4th at 11% or so. Fred goes on to not place in NH (single digits), at which point he disappears completely from nat’l coverage. Then he goes on to not show in MI, and by South Carolina he’s done. I have no idea who we’re getting stuck with, but I doubt it’s Freddy.
Um, that's been the case for most of the past several months already. He's not even participating actively in NH at this point, so if he does "poorly" there, who cares ? That's not a surprise.
