I'm curious to see what subsequent polls say, but Mitt's got to be happy with this.
Support for Mitt Romney has jumped in South Carolina while support for Fred Thompson has dropped. Romney leads Rudy Giuliani 30% to 19% among men in South Carolina while Giuliani leads among women at 27%, followed by Romney at 22% and John McCain at 21%.
Though it's just one poll, the trend is clear: Fred down, Mitt up. As we've predicted, Fred was destined to collapse. And dropping around 11% in SC is a major collapse.
I think this drop for Fred and rise for Mitt results from a continued shift by Christians to give Mitt a chance. Here's what one had to say at Evangelicals for Mitt today:
Now that the hoopla surrounding Senator Thompson has subsided a bit, I hope all Conservatives and Christians can take a step back and re-evaluate this race a bit. Governor Romney is the clear choice for Conservative and Evangelicals for a number of reasons, not the least of which being his strong stance on family values and actions to back it up.
The media portrays Governor Romney's religion as a negative, but in many ways it should be a positive. True, I do not believe what Mormons believe, but we do share the same values. The values of family first, obedience to God, service to country, charitable giving, an upbringing that is grounded in faith and that of hard work. How could a conservative not vote for this man?
Exactly. We've been saying that for over a year now. Give the man your vote!
