We’re Number Four!

I know he’s the real winner, but isn’t fourth place for John McCain kind of pathetic? Conversely, left-for-dead Fred Thompson turns out to still have some residual support. And why not? After all, the idea of Fred Thompson — a totally normal, non-elderly orthodox conservative — makes a ton of sense. If his staff can somehow resuscitate their candidate, I think there’s clearly a market among the Republican faithful for what Thompson would be selling were he not too lazy to sell it.
