I talked to a guy in Iowa today who said his wife called him right after seeing Fred speak. She had been supporting someone else, I don’t know who, maybe Huckabee or Romney, but immediately switched to Fred. He had been on the fence—she convinced him to vote for Fred.
Yes that is the normal experience. I don’t know many who have the opposite experience it is why everybody has Fred on their short list. I don’t know what it is that is keeping them from making that final plunge. The media are largely responsible for suppressing Fred’s support. They clearly don’t want him and would rather have Huck or Mitt for their Democrat candidate to run against. The establishment Republicans secretly want McCain or Romney. McCain is a long shot but they certainly don’t want Thompson who they don’t have in their hip pocket.

Well..that is a good sign for sure. I will be the biggest Fredster on the board if he gets the nod....not to mention what I will do on the dems boards once he has been chosen(evil laugh).
But just so you and everyone here knows....I will back Guilliani, McCain, the Huckleberry, Romney, etc. too if they get the nod. I will not be ‘sitting this one out’ in the general election no matter what!
