Instead of quoting a single line, quote the main items:
“On the Republican side, Mitt Romney, the former governor of Massachusetts, gained a bit on Mike Huckabee, the former governor of Arkansas. Huckabee cumulative three-day tracking total equaled 28% support among likely Republican caucus–goers, while Romney moved up from 25% to 26% support. Arizona Sen. John McCain remained in third place at 12%, tied with former Tennessee Sen. Fred Thompson, who has seen a late-breaking surge. Among Democrats, 5% were yet undecided just three days ahead of the caucuses. Among Republicans, 6% were yet unsure.”
“Huckabee’s support spans all age groups, but he is particularly strong among voters under age 30.”
BOF - I wouldn’t call 12% much of a surge - with all due respect to Senator Thompson. He needs more than a third place tie.
I see, so applying the same principle: If hill-the-beast finishes 3rd she's out of the running too?
Fred's been ignored -- and bashed by most of the MSM for the last couple of weeks -- for him to be surging at all is a miracle.
Go Go.
