His support will go to Romney, since Huckabee isn't campaigning as hard in FL.  And Fred won't win TN - Dean at least did well toward the beginning when he won VT.  The best Fred's done was 3rd place, once.

No, he got 3rd in both Iowa AND South Carolina.
Oh and 2nd in Wyoming.
Basically he was rocking.

Woops - I forgot about Wyoming and I was thinking McCain got 3rd in Iowa.

Both McCain and Thompson got 13% in IA, but Thompson edged McCain by ~.25% of the vote.

If there is still  a race for the nom I don't think Thompson wins Tennessee. How popular is he there exactly anyway? I mean, Dean was a Governor of Vermont, that usually carries more weight than a senator.

I'm really stunned that people said he was such a great candidate.  Can anyone find some of the more absurd Thompson maps?

This is really the epitome of them. Thompson/Pawlenty vs. Obama/Webb:

In in BRTD's world would a one-term senator win an election against Fred Thompson:


The funny thing about it is that Thompson was a one term Senator.

Only 1 full term, yes, but he won two elections for Senate and served more than the 6 years a senator serves in a single term.
