Fredhead poll Update: A decision coming Tuesday?

posted at 5:18 pm on January 20, 2008 by Bryan
Share on Facebook | regular view

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.

I’m a little ticked at the fact that I may not get to vote for Fred because of the way this system works.

This is coming from a Mitt supporter but I do think Fred would have won the nomination if we had a national (no one state got first dibs), closed (sorry, Mac) primary system. This would keep out the little guy but would give us a candidate that best reflects the views of the party base. And at least for now that base is pretty conservative….though I don’t know about the Huckster supporters.

malan89 on January 20, 2008 at 9:02 PM

Does it matter? I’ll hold my nose and vote for the Republocrat!!!!

azcop on January 20, 2008 at 9:02 PM

#1- Romney
#2- If he supports McCain, I’ll be glad Fred dropped out of the race. If I have to vote for McCain to vote against Hillary, I’d rather not use a proxy.

petefrt on January 20, 2008 at 9:03 PM

1. Romney
2. I believe Rush said that if you have a choice between two liberals (McCain and the Dem nominee,) you might as well choose the one with the ‘R’ after their name.

Even though McCain is an arrogant, lying, holier-than-thou a##hole, I would vote for any of the Republican candidates rather than for Clinton or Obama. Staying home in protest wouldn’t accomplish a single thing.

Knuckledragger on January 20, 2008 at 9:03 PM

I have a policy of not paying for movies starring actors that call me names…not buyin goods made by folks that show me contempt…and I’m sure not voting for a man that has backstabbed my party at every turn.

I think it’s called consistency.

tickleddragon on January 20, 2008 at 9:05 PM

I’m not too sure about the media being able to diss McCain…but who knows.
JetBoy on January 20, 2008 at 8:56 PM

I’ve mentioned this in other threads, but McCain has a vicious temper. Google “McCain, Temper” sometime and read through all the times he has gone nuclear on people. I don’t fault him for this, but he is rather famous for it among the media. And yet they have not made an issue of it. And instead wax poetic about “how scared the dems are of him” and how he is a maverick and on and on.

Perhaps it is a bit conspiritorial of me, but I believe that the MSM want McCain to win the nomination. Because they know that a reporter can corner him on some tough questions and get him to fly off the handle at them. You will then see that clip on every news program night after night until the general election.

They know he is an easy knock off. That’s my guess anyway.

conservnut on January 20, 2008 at 9:05 PM

I’ll stay home if it’s not Fred or John Bolton. And I’ll watch Obama or Hillary take it home. And for four years, I’ll manage. And every time someone I know who voted for them complains about how the country is, I’ll bring up who they voted for, and how in doing so they are responsible for exactly what they are complaining about, and if they want to fix things, talk to me in 2012.

LOL. WILLARD???!! O man. He is toast. “Fred” is kinda stodgy and somewhat dull to the ears, but WILLARD?

OMG, that stupid rat-infested movie from the 70’s has been forever seared – SEARED – into the collective psyche of the American public. And for the younger generations who have never heard of it, you can bet that H-wood and the MSM will make damn sure to ressurect that sorry excuse for a horror flick the second Mittster gets the nod.

No one – NO ONE – is going to vote for a guy who evokes in their minds the image of rats the second they hear his name.

Yup…time for another drink.

NemoParticularis on January 20, 2008 at 9:06 PM

I am convinced that Fred Dalton Thompson is the most qualified candidate to be President and lead this country through the years ahead.

If his campaign is over, I won’t be hurt. I’ll be afraid.

I second that!

I think we can all agree on one thing. All of us who are currently posting at Hot Air on a Friday night are big dorks and make Star Trek fans look like cool dudes.

What? We can’t be both?

Browncoatone on January 20, 2008 at 9:07 PM

If Fred drops out,I will start watching Law and Order.
I have never seen one episode,and I’m really surprised
after all this time,not one idiot Liberal referred to Fred
Thompson as an actor.

If Fred endorses McCain,well that means a longer press
conference with McCain,actually I’m kidding,haha.
Seriously though,if Fred backs McCain it shows to me
that Fred is thinking more of the well-being of the Republican party,rallying behind a fellow consevative
for the cause:irragardless of who the Republican nominee is,
it’s still better than a Liberal Democrat in the White House!

davenp35 on January 20, 2008 at 9:01 PM

1) Grasp of whose policy? What policy?
2) Fast on his feet is something I couldn’t care less about. I’m not a “youtube voter” looking for a snazzy comeback or witty line. Elect Robin Williams!
3)Looks matter…jeez, not gonna touch that one.
4)I’ll give you that one, although McCain seems a lot more genuine than pro-life & abortion, varmint-shooting fake 2nd Amendment supporter Romney.
5) I don’t think of how good a fundraiser a candidate is when I think about them, he did work at a private equity fund for Pete’s sake.

CABE on January 20, 2008 at 9:02 PM

Well said, although I just don’t think Romney will inspire much hope among voters, and he certainly won’t get the Democrat or Independent vote that the GOP needs in this election.

Every conservative will vote for Fred!

Maybe Guiliani. Maybe Romney

McCain & Huckabee can kiss my conservative butt.

davenp35 on January 20, 2008 at 9:01 PM

Um…yeah…but his real first name is…Willard

*snicker*

And he’s a Mormon. While the former will not necessarily hurt him in Evangelicaland, the latter will act like a downpour of piss on a Rose Bowl parade – unless, of course, you know a foolproof way to convince Elmer Gantry’s extended family that we are voting for a president, not a pastor.

NemoParticularis on January 20, 2008 at 9:16 PM

Bryan I don’t agree with you. If Fred hadn’t split the vote Huckabee would have won.

CCRWM on January 20, 2008 at 9:17 PM

I’ve mentioned this in other threads, but McCain has a vicious temper.

conservnut on January 20, 2008 at 9:05 PM

Yeah, I remember that being an issue back in 2000 as well…but I kinda like that McCain has a temper. As far as I’m concerned, we need a President these days like that. McCain was my first choice back then too…basically because he can get things done via bipartisanship (and not just talk about it) and I didn’t like the way the GOP totted Dubya out almost 2 years before the election in 2000 as it’s choice. I still think there were “powers that be” in the GOP that pushed McCain out of it, especially after his big win in New Hampshire that year.

I agree that the media now would like to see McCain (or even more so, Huckabee) as the nominee…and probably for the reason you stated. But I also think we’d see McCain handle it better than the past too, knowing he was in the driver’s seat.

I’m still pulling for Fred tho…even though it’s looking more and more like he’s a goner. The party base must have shifted a bit towards the center the last few years, and the true conservatives are written off by the voters.

JetBoy on January 20, 2008 at 9:17 PM

#1 Romney
#2 Shake my head in disgust, especialy after all the fundraising he got from all the Fred Heads Who hate McVain.

That’s not what the exit polls have said.

It will be hard for McCain and Giuliani when their base even refuses to support them. Plus most social cons don’t like either one very much.

Only liberal dems think like that. Conservatives and right thinking Americans don’t allow childish word association games rule their lives.

Ya gotta have faith in folks.

csdeven on January 20, 2008 at 9:19 PM

I’m a HUGE fan of Fred. He could have been our savior, but it didn’t happen…and despite all the eternal optimists, it will not happen.

The Republican party is fractured. All I see are people claiming that they won’t vote for this guy or that guy.

The democrats will win.

So, in light of reality, and the fact that there isn’t a conservative running, I’m going to vote for Obama.

In my view, it is better to have an honest man that is wrong about absolutely everything than the the most vile and corrupt person on Earth as president.

Things are so very bad.

I was curious to know anyone’s thoughts on what the #1 and #2 issues are to all of you. Personally, it’s the war on terror and the economy. My first choice, Fred, has spoken forcefully on both issues. However, Rudy and McCain seem the most willing to mow down our enemies in the Middle East.

I admit McCain sucks for not voting for the Bush tax cuts, but WILL NOT back down to any jihadist or PC-liberal garbage in that respect. And Rudy is probably just as hawkish and light years better when it comes to economic issues.

Thoughts?

Catholics and transubstantiation.
Hal Lindsey’s followers (some churches) and the rapture.
Jehovah’s Witnesses and only 144,000 will be saved.
Mormons and the God-head. (3 separate personages instead of the trinity theory).

A Christian is a religious person who believes Jesus is the Christ. All religions are strange. They are faith-based. To say a religion that believes Jesus Christ is the Son of God and Savior of the World isn’t Christian is absurd.

CABE on January 20, 2008 at 9:26 PM

From a link I followed from bnelson44 I found this vote match. Since we are talking about our 2nd choice candidates I think it may be interesting for everyone to answer the questions pertaining to the issues to see who we should vote for. My 1,2, and 3 have always been Mitt, Fred, and Hunter. Interestingly that is exactly how it matched me after answering the questions. Obviously we may weigh some issues more than others but I found it interesting nonetheless. Check it out and see how accurate it is for you. Click the start here to do you own.

HaraldHardrada on January 20, 2008 at 9:29 PM

My problem with Romney is that if he is a real Mormon then he has to believe the non Scriptural things Mormons do and it becomes almost like thinking Tom Cruise would make a good president. I don’t see myself wanting to vote for somebody who could believe the stuff the Mormons do. Hank Hanagraff(sp)on his show the Bible Answer Man did a whole week on Mormonisn and it was truely enlightning. Mormonisn is a false Christian religion founded by a man similar to a L Ron Hubbard IMHO.

Now I guess if he is the nominee he’ll get my vote but as the lesser of two evils…

FLcapitalistthug on January 20, 2008 at 9:24 PM

The economy, combined with other domestic issues, will be the issues that decide the election.

I’m not comfortable with the term War on Terror, because it was so devastatingly ill-chosen to describe a tactic when the war is against Political Islam, which happens to be my #1 issue.

Rudy is hawkish enough to satisfy me WRT foreign policy. I do not trust McCain on policies foreign or domestic, because he is in this race to avenge a grudge against the American people, the Republican Party, and President Bush.

He’s a politician, CC. Just like McCain. Just Like Thompson. Just like any of the others.

Study history. Do you really believe the so-called “wars of religion” fought over the course of centuries in Europe were really, truly, wars of religion? Religion was merely the pretext for these wars. With a handful of exceptions, the monarchs who ruled in Europe over the past millennium and a half were Christian in name only.

Have no fear when it comes to Willard Mitt. He is about as fervent a Mormon as Ted “where’s my scuba gear” Kennedy is a Catholic.

The single question no Christian can ever answer without loads of obfuscatory BS, is this….

When God leaves his Jesus mode to be in the God mode, what does he do with his Jesus skin suit? Does he hang it in the Holy Closet? AND, most importantly, does he use wire hangers?

whatever.

2.2 billion Christians and their respective churches have denounced mormonism as a cult!

No matter if you consider yourself a Christian(which is between you and God only)….this fact remains.

I meant it’s not strange to me but to others. But mega-mormon dittos to you. Personally I don’t understand why other religions haven’t abandoned the Nicene Creed?

CABE on January 20, 2008 at 9:41 PM

In some respects, this guy is even more dangerous than Hillary.

I don’t disagree, but Hillary doesn’t care about the direction the country goes, only her poll numbers. I do sincerely believe, that even though he is very misguided, Barack Obama wants America to succeed.

When God leaves his Jesus mode to be in the God mode, what does he do with his Jesus skin suit? Does he hang it in the Holy Closet? AND, most importantly, does he use wire hangers? – csdeven on January 20, 2008 at 9:38 PM

Please grow up and stop being absurd. Wire hangars leave creases. The Almighty uses foam-covereed hangars.

@ HaraldHardrada on January 20, 2008 at 9:40 PM

Wow, that is a hell of a statistic. I have several christian friends who support Romney for president and like him BECAUSE of his family values that mormonism brings. But, I havent talked to the other 2199999998 christians that you claim to have heard denounce mormonism.

Bwahahahaha!!!!

If a persons status as a Christian is between him and God, where do you disgusting bigots get the idea you can decide who is a Christian?

What a fool you and your ilk are.

HaraldHardrada on January 20, 2008 at 9:40 PM

2.2 billion Christians? That would be 100% (not 99.9) of all Christians everywhere believe The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is a cult?

Wow. And the U.N. should control our armed forces….because world opinion matters!

CABE on January 20, 2008 at 9:45 PM

Every religion has strange beliefs:
CABE on January 20,2008 at 9:26PM.

CABE:Your absolutely correct,Gee wiz,I can’t be the only
one who thinks that this feuding between Mormon’s
Christians,Catholics and rest is an accident.
No wonder there is a rift within the Republican
party on religion.

For the last almost eight years there has been a
coordinated effort by the libs,mainly CNN showing
forever non-stop hit peices on religion,these shows
certianly weren’t aimed at godless Democrats,and it
appears to me all that effort is now coming into
fruitation!

Avenge the American people? Someone is drinking funneling the Kool-Aid tonight…

FLcapitalistthug on January 20, 2008 at 9:38 PM

No, dear reader, I said

… [McCain] is in this race to avenge a grudge against the American people, the Republican Party, and President Bush.

Jack Daniels, make it a double.

Good ball game on by the way.

conservnut on January 20, 2008 at 9:47 PM

I have a crazy idea, leave your religion OUT of politics. Vote on secular things issues that are important to the country, IE, foreign policy, the economy, domestic policy, etc.

muyoso on January 20, 2008 at 9:47 PM

I’m talking about whether or not mormonism is accepted by the Church as Christian and it is not.

I don’t have a problem with mormons…I’ve done aq lot of business with mormons and have found them to be,in general, some of the most honest businessmen around.

HaraldHardrada on January 20, 2008 at 9:48 PM

2.2 billion Christians and their respective churches have denounced mormonism as a cult!

What about it is cultish to you about Mormonism. The whole Joe Smith/Missouri/tablets story? It may seem far fetched to you, but a lot of my atheist friends think a lot of the stories in the Bible are crazy too. It takes a lot faith and personal strength to still believe what you do when a whole bunch of jerks like you are running around telling you that you’re crazy.

malan89 on January 20, 2008 at 9:49 PM

@ HaraldHardrada on January 20, 2008 at 9:48 PM

No, you said that christians believe it is a cult, not that its NOT christian. Here you are twisting what you said because multiple people made you look ridiculous.

HaraldHardrada on January 20, 2008 at 9:48 PM

SO please if ya aint Skeerd Tell us what is this “Almighty” church that YOU belong to? Hmmmmm?
and by what authority does it claim to be the only true religion?

Ya got me curious now. Where are you receiving your marching orders?

Once again, where is this single office I can go to and speak to the grand poohbah of every Christian on the planet?

HaraldHardrada on January 20, 2008 at 9:40 PM

This is pretty remarkable irony when you think about it both on the micro and the macro. You are saying that Christianity is a personal issue between a person and God only, and then you interject yourself to judge as a third person someone else’s relationship.

That view, that religion is measured by action and that everyone’s relationship between God and self is personal is precisely Jefferson’s view. The irony is that Christians came to America for freedom of religion and freedom of worship – penned famously by him in Virginia which led to the insistence of it’s inclusion in the Bill of Rights. Somehow you have come full circle to the Anglican view. congrats.

Spirit of 1776 on January 20, 2008 at 9:52 PM

So McCain has a grudge against the American people…ummm, okay.

FLcapitalistthug on January 20, 2008 at 9:50 PM

Nope, just the ones with Conservative principles. He LOVES liberals.

tickleddragon on January 20, 2008 at 9:52 PM

where do you disgusting bigots get the idea you can decide who is a Christian?

What a fool you and your ilk are.

csdeven on January 20, 2008 at 9:45 PM

Give me a break! The Christian church gets to decide whether the church claiming to be Christian should be associated with them or not.

Csdeven you’re just a bigot atheist…why don’t you just switch to the democratic party, where Christian haters like you thrive!

HaraldHardrada on January 20, 2008 at 9:53 PM

HaraldHardrada on January 20, 2008 at 9:53 PM

Please stop speaking for Christians. You’re embarrassing yourself and the rest of us, in the process.
