Strong Showing By Fred...

As business winds down in SC, it looks like Fred Thompson will be finishing a solid 3rd place. After really not showing in New Hampshire and Iowa, Thompson appears to be finishing 3rd and ahead of a previously streaking Mitt Romney.

McCain takes the win with Huckabee taking 2nd. Rudy Guiliani is still preparing to make a stand in a less religously fueled Florida. It will be interesting to see how the next week works out, hopefully Fred's people will mobilize to make him more visible in the news over the next couple of weeks leading up to Super Tuesday.

On the Democrat side, Hillary is starting to get worried about Obama, hence all the smears that her "staff" leaks out. If she can't control her staff what makes you think she can control a country, or a military, or even her "staff" as President. She is a mess, but don't count her out. Once Carville and Begalla get involved anything can happen. They are world class smear merchants. And that makes the difference between Democrats and Republicans. Republicans talk fact, cause and effect. Democrats talk about feelings and personal attacks. I am still not sure what the Democrats stand for, because they waste all their time telling you what they are against.
