Fredhead poll Update: A decision coming Tuesday?

Patrick Ruffini is running the poll, which asks two questions.
#1. If Fred drops out of the race, who will you support?
#2. If Fred drops out and endorses McCain, what impact will that have on your vote?
Before you Fredheads yell at me about this poll, consider that Fred declared that South Carolina was his stand state and he finished third there. Also consider that at some point, people have to start dropping out of the GOP race, and Fred and Huckabee are probably the most likely major candidates to drop out at this point. Huckabee because South Carolina gave him a loss on what amounted to home turf, and Fred because the evidence of Fredmentum is, sadly, scant. Reality’s teeth are getting sharper by the day.
If I had my druthers, Fred would stay in, we would go to a brokered convention and Fred would end up on the ticket. But my druthers don’t seem to be accounting for much these days.
Update: Carl Cameron says there may be a decision coming Tuesday.
As we have previously reported Fred Thomspon is in Tennessee visiting his 90 plus year old mother who is recovering from an illness
There will be no decisions today as Thompson mulls whether to carry on his bid for the presidency but he is expected to say something definitive tomorrow, probably first thing in the morning.
While no one in the campaign will be surprised if he withdraws they have no idea which way he will go and they do have some money if he should decide to continue.

Entelechy on January 20, 2008 at 6:33 PM
It is entirely possible that Fred will remain in the race at least through the Florida primary. Unfortunately, politics these days - much like the world of advertising and marketing - is governed by a fickle, feather-brained goddess named “Perception.” And perception, unfortunately, counts for everything these days, as Form routinely tramples Substance underfoot. Even the Republican electorate - by and large intellectually light-years ahead of the morons who call themselves Democrats - are not immune to this poignant flaw in fallen human nature.
I suspect that Mr. Thompson understands this and, perhaps, may even regret overestimating the intelligence and perspicacity of the American electorate. In a sense, he is an admirable, if somewhat sad, anachronism - a throwback to the halcyon days of our Republic when folks paid attention to WHAT a candidate said rather than HOW he said it or what he looked like when he said it.
Those days are gone forever, Ilja. Sorry.

Romney made his fortune at Bain Capital doing leveraged buyouts of troubled companies. His pander to Michigan worries me, since I’m not sure he wouldn’t try to use some of the same tactics as “CEO” of the federal government.

Hmmm…. very good point actualy.
1. Mitt, as he’s the least objectionable at this point…
2. Huck, McCain, or Rudi will NEVER get my vote… as all three either want to change the Constitution (Huck), ignore it (Rudi and the 2nd), or go around it (McCain Feingold…)… so it really does not matter if, or who, Fred endorses.
Romeo13 on January 20, 2008 at 6:36 PM
1) Prefer Romney, but would choose most electable in general. No way am I do anything to give the Dems the Whitehouse, especially with Congress, 2 Scotus nominees coming down the pipe and Foreign Policy in their hands totally.
jp on January 20, 2008 at 6:37 PM
considering that I already voted for Fred! here in NH, if he endorses McCain after dropping out and McCain becomes the nominee, I will not vote for McCain. I tried to get a friend to not vote for McCain (who was his choice) in NH, and I haven’t heard from his since the primary.
rslancer14 on January 20, 2008 at 6:37 PM
Careful. That British accent is endearing, heh.
I would remind people who think failure is inevitable, GHWB came out of convention with a 13-17 point deficit to Duk. As for Mitt, paleo-con Buchanan thinks he can win, and I think he is right. Moreover, the R candidate should be the banner carrier for ending illegal immigration. Still a topic. Moreover the economy is going to increase in focus. The race isn’t over, though it doesn’t look bright for R’s.

1) Anybody but Romney. Literally anybody. Paul doesn’t count. The only way I vote Romney in the general is if its Hillary on the other side.
2)The endorsement - or lack thereof - won’t have an impact.
At this point my enthusiasm is gone. We’re going to copy exactly the Democrats’ 2004 play book - and its going to have the same result.
My only remaining hope is that after we make that mistake and have to endure 4-8 years of creeping liberalism, the country remembers what the Carter years were like - and conservatives remember their principles.
Professor Blather on January 20, 2008 at 6:39 PM
FL is a winner take all state and Fred has no chance of winning FL. I think if he stays in it will be to try to win one of the Super Tuesday states: AL, AK, AR, CA, CO, CT, DE, GA, IL, MA, MT, MN, MN, MO, NJ, NY-R, ND, OK, TN, UT, AZ, WV

I only had to glance up 4 posts to find somebody copping to the Kerry mistake. It’s funny enough that it’s still worth a chuckle, no matter how sad it is.
We’re going to nominate our Kerry. For the same reasons. And he’ll lose for the same reasons, too.
Principles matter. Core values matter. We know that. But this time around, we’re going to pretend we don’t.
It’s a Greek tragedy in the making.

Mitt’s nearly as bad as Rudy on the 2nd, he’s a fan of Nanny State bans. That’s my biggest hangup with Mitt, until he makes a compromise there and backs off Nanny legislation, I’m not even considering budging, I’ll either be voting Fred or writing in Fred or Zombie Reagan come November.
doubleplusundead on January 20, 2008 at 6:42 PM
I will vote Libertarian… or write in for Fred. I would consider voting for Rudy or Romney if they could somehow convince me their “gun-grabbin” days were over and they would not support anymore gun bans. Until McCain can admit he was wrong on trying to cram McCain-Kennedy down our throats… I will NEVER, EVER vote for him.
Yes, I sure as hell won’t write in for Fred. (see above vis a vis McCain)

Some don’t care that you do, yes, Believe it! And some have plenty themselves. They are rare, but do exist.
On the serious topic of economy, value of gold being part of the topic - it’s bitter/sweet - the value of gold is up, while that of the dollar is down.
Indeed, the economy will be a big topic, and if it tanks, the ones who can least fix it, get to ‘lead’.

We’ll find out. He is a seasoned politician, he knows his staying in splits both the conservative vote and the evangelical vote. He’s no fool.

Entelechy on January 20, 2008 at 6:49 PM
I see the economy continuing its turn for the worse, and therefore I’d endorse Romney when Fred drops out. I’m as dedicated a Fredhead as anyone, but let’s face reality.
I personally think McCain doesn’t stand a chance against the Dem hit machine if he wins the nomination, and of course Huckabee has no chance. I don’t think Giuliani is Presidential material yet…maybe in 4 years. He needs to spend time in someone else’s administration IMO.
frode on January 20, 2008 at 6:49 PM
GHWB wasn’t a Mormon. Wake up, dummy. The year is 2008, not 1988.
Buchanan is either insane or senile. Possibly both. I’d take anything he says with a pillar of salt.
Heh. Looks like the schadenfreude is on the other foot now (whatever the hell that means). If (and when - pace, MB4) Fred cries ‘no mas,’ the race is, for all practical purposes, over. You can prattle, whine, moo, whinny and bleat till the whole flock comes home and it won’t chance the course of future events, ghost.
This coming election day you will have two choices for president: Hillary Clinton or the candidate who will lose to her.
Time to start drinking, dude. Heavily.

doubleplusundead on January 20, 2008 at 6:50 PM
I’m not a Fredhead, but I’ll put in a plug for Rudy based on two points.
1.) If everything goes to Hell with the economy and/or the war between now and November, he’s the best positioned to make the case to the electorate to vote Republican.
2.) If everything goes to Hell with the economy and/or the war after November, he has as much experience and more success dealing with such problems than any of the others.
Rudy: He Probably Won’t F**K Up.

Big S on January 20, 2008 at 6:35 PM
I’ve worked in private equity for years and I’ll you….Leveraged buyouts are one of the easiest ways of making money that there is.
You’d have to be about retarded not to be able to make money in leveraged buyouts!
Basically all you do is use levereage to buy a company….fire a whole bunch of people..(which automatically increases your earnings and the value of the company) and eventually take the company public again or sell the company at a higher multiple.
While I don’t see anything wrong with this I am surprised the MSM hasn’t villified him about this(yet).
HaraldHardrada on January 20, 2008 at 6:50 PM
He’ll then unhinge his jaw and swallow a nutria whole.
doubleplusundead on January 20, 2008 at 6:51 PM
If Fred is not nominated then it is a lock for a dem to take the Whitehouse.
That may actually cure our immigration problems, here is how;
when the interst rate is 23% and
the unemployment rate is 25% and
gas is $8.50 per gallon
The Dem president will start a WPA/ccc work project and we will be clammering to get a job as a posthole diggers down where the fence is being built.
People that once looked the other way will be turning in any illegal they see.
So it may have a bright side.

RobertInAustin on January 20, 2008 at 6:55 PM
If Fred drops out I won’t vote for president. Voting for Mitt eh leftist liar, McCain the “maverick” nut case, or Huckabee the stealth socialist is not much different at all than a vote for Hillary.
In fact, Hillary might face more resistance to her leftist policies than the above mentioned. So, I will not vote for president.
If Hillary wins whatever, if McRomney the Baptist preacher wins…. at least it wasn’t MY fault!
Warner Todd Huston on January 20, 2008 at 6:56 PM
I figured:) Yes, I understand that, and it might help Clinton, but I think it hurts Obama.
I don’t care if you take it with salt of not. He has more experience and more insight then you and has shown himself to be quite perceptive in this particular election.
As far as the other, spare me the ‘dummy’ ritual. I understand that you may think it is necessary for you to try to create credibility by insulting other commenters (anyone who has read a DS comment here is familiar with the style), proverbially peeing on the fire hydrant, but I assure you it fails to impress me. The facts of the matter are all that matter.
Spirit of 1776 on January 20, 2008 at 6:56 PM
Romney in all force. If Romney can edge a win in Florida he would finally get some respect from the media and would go on to do well in the remaining states.
He needs more endorsements not for the trail of followers, but for the legitimacy it serves the campaign and the media’s view thereof.
Fred would do well to support Romney, and I hope he takes the crown.

A possible Huckabee FL Strategy
Remember, FL is a winner take all state. Huck may be figuring that the social moderates: Romney/McCain/Rudy will split the social moderate vote. He, with no one like Fred to counter him, will take the social conservative vote and take the state. Not a totally impossible scenario.
A possible Fred Strategy
Stop Huck from taking FL, Huck drops out of the race, and Fred takes the South on Super Tuesday.

TheSitRep on January 20, 2008 at 7:16 PM
The first problem with both polls is the inherent presumption that Fred will drop out and endorse McCain, neither of which there is any evidence for yet. That said:
1) If Fred drops out completely, it gets tough. Romney talks like a conservative, but I don’t know if I believe him. Rudy is conservative on few issues, but I at least think I could believe he would do them. Specifically, judges: I’d believe Rudy can be counted on to nominate good judges before I would believe Romney could be counted on.
2) McCain is not acceptable no matter who endorses him

I was hoping for something similar, only in my dream scenario the various evangelical leaders that have been supporting Huckabee collectively come to their senses and realize that Huckabee can’t possibly win the nomination, much less the general, and ask Huckabee to drop out in the interest of improving the chances of their second choice.
Otherwise they’ll end up with nothing.

Actually, I think that a substantial Huck loss, say Fred in 2nd place and Fred in 3rd was Fred’s strategy in SC. That would have made Fred the Sounthern savior. But that didn’t happen. I think what is going on now is a long hard look at what it would take to get Huck to drop out of the race and if Fred can afford to wait until that happens. The fact that they took down the fundraising truck at http://www.fred08.com is not a good sign.

I’m not clear how you would refer to it as a fit when that has been your course in every communication we’ve had so far. But perhaps it was just fits.
Buchanan is damaged goods because he left the party, so he will always be persona non grata, but that doesn’t affect the value of his insights. His track record makes his opinion of worth consideration. In reference to Romney, he said that Romney was improving as a campaigner and at the rate of his improvement, he said he would be a strong general candidate. That seems very consistent with what has been seen, and I believe him to be correct.
Sure Mitt has an uphill battle. So does everyone else. I wasn’t even referring to him specifically in the statement which you quoted. McCain polls as well as any of them now, but again the polls will not hold over the course of the year, especially without an incumbent in the race that can affect the daily conversation.

NemoParticularis on January 20, 2008 at 7:39 PM
Fred was never really in, so when he is escorted back to Lackluster-campaignville, I’ll work for whoever can defeat the scoialistic sludge of the current Dems.
Huckster and McVain will implode, so the choice will be Romney or Rudy.
Either would be better than the Defeatocrats.
Who Fred then endorses is mostly irrelevant, because he hasn’t energized enough people to matter.
His wife is gorgeous.
He can take new movie roles and enjoy his homelife.
And consider himself a lucky, lucky man.
The Global Jihad will have to be defeated without him.
I see no sign that he particularly cares.
Not even about the threat to his children.
Otherwise he would have been breathing fire and defending the endangered Civilization of the West with ever fibre of his being since last April.

SimplyKimberly on January 20, 2008 at 7:40 PM
As long as Huck is substantially winning Evangelicals, he will probably stay in the race, at least through Super Tuesday in the hope of getting some Bible Belt states. McCain is not good for Huck since he takes some of his voters from him. Huck voters will tend not to vote for Mitt because he is LDS and in their eyes, pro-choice. Rudy is, in their eyes, pro-choice too. So the only people who whould draw social conservative votes from Huck voters are McCain and Fred. With Fred gone, the only place they will go is McCain.
