Guess that little contribution to the red truck helped?

Fred gains!!! But he has to go after McCain on immigration- a lot harder than he did in the last debate.

Sweet! BTW, does anyone have a link to the article(s) about Huckabee hiring a gay GOP advisor?

Huckabee is a liberal who has duped the religious liberal left into believing he is the real conservative, which ironically, neither the Christian left nor Huckabee is.

His greatest strength in income demos comes with his second-place 28% in the $100k+ slot, which Obama wins. Who would have guessed that Edwards would have been so popular with the wealthy, and so unpopular with the poor?

Easy. Because the poor recognize Edwards as a phony who isn't going to fulfill his promises.

Meanwhile, wealthy white liberals look to Edwards as a means of assuaging their own guilt and self-loathing.

South Carolina has one of the highest proportion of military retirees in the country, and I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re heavily backing McCain due to his support of the Iraq war, his Vietnam service, and his stint in the Hanoi Hilton. The only way Fred catches him is if he takes the gloves off and goes after McQueeg’s liberal positions on amnesty and “climate change”.

"Over the past several days, the only real movement in South Carolina’s Republican Presidential Primary has been a four-point gain for Fred Thompson and a five-point decline for Mike Huckabee."

"The big winner from that trade-off is John McCain."

Fred Thompson, you big ol' conservative saviour, you.

Fred Thompson, you big ol' conservative saviour, you.

So it's Thompson's fault that Huckabee can't beat McCain in a Southern state? Where's Huck's inflappable charm? His unmitigated wit? His populist connection with the people of the south? Surely he can overcome some "misrepresentations" by "Metamucil Fred."

It's not Fred's fault that people are beginning to recognize Huckabee as exactly what Rollins molded him to be, the end of the Reagan coalition.

It seems obvious that FDT may be hedging his bets with regards to Mclame.

Fred Thompson’s improvement on the stump is being reflected in SC polls.

THIS IS GOOD NEWS!!!

So, is Huck hedging his bets with McLame too? Or did I miss Huck's massive pounding of McCain's record? Or is there a difference between the two? Why is FDT attacking the #2 guy hedging his bets, but Huck attacking the #4 is not? Where's Huck taking McCain to task on his issues?

The huckster is an outsider. FDT and Mclame served in the senate together. I don’t like your tone btw, it was just an observation and many have espoused the opinion
