A nice endorsement on the eve of the Wyoming caucus! “We’re proud to endorse Senator Thompson for president because he has a long track record of supporting pro-life principles,” stated Steven Ertelt, President of Right to Life of Wyoming. “Senator Thompson had a 100% pro-life voting record during his tenure in Congress. Today, he supports…

By January 11th. OK if you’re upset that we will be running a populist (Huckabee) against a populist (Obama) then why not do something about it? Why not denote time and money to the Thompson campaign. Why not show Ed Rollins and the MSM that the Reagan coalition is not dead. Why not support the…

Rod Dreher’s assessment that Huckabee’s appeal was “not just a triumph of theocon identity politics” seems to me a little bit like rewriting history. And though I will concede that Huckabee no doubt received many votes because of his populist appeal and his support of the fair tax he would not have won without the…

Pretty heavy handed: Nothing makes for a lackluster afterparty like a tie for third place. And that’s where Fred Thompson finished in Thursday’s caucus. The former Tennessee senator won 13 percent support, too close to Arizona Sen. John McCain to call third place in the Republican race. The crowd of about 100 Thompson supporters watching…

Ron Paul, Mitt Romney and Fred Thompson spent $10,000 each to acquire a…

Well, my prayers were answered and Thompson’s still in the race: Republican Fred Thompson remained upbeat despite failing to win or finish second in the Iowa caucuses. Thompson congratulated his opponents – Mike Huckabee won the vote and Mitt Romney finished second – and said he was looking forward to the contests in New Hampshire…

Huckabee won because he played identity politics. He asked Christians to vote for him because he was a Christian and they did. And I believe it was a huge mistake. Christianity has been co-opted by the Republicans too much already and this just marries the two more closely together and the two do not mix.…

Well, there you go. I hope Obama doesn’t get the nomination because he’s too inexperienced and would be a tough opponent (given that style trumps substance in politics today).

Here.

Sounds like Romney is conceding. Crap! Though it looks like Thompson may be third.
