. However, before Huckabee started taking off, Thompson was the only real conservative who had a shot at winning. I like Tancredo, Hunter and Paul, can't stand Brownback. But let's face it.

). So I want a serious conservative to win. Thompson ain't perfect, but he's a lot more conservative than Bush even promised he'd be.
