Predictions: Which GOPers will drop out first?
I say Thompson will drop out first, closely followed by Giuliani.

Iowa: Huckabee, Romney & McCain will finish in the top three. The others are toast and will drop out one by one. Ron Paul is in it for the long haul. With the "major" candidates dropping out, Ron Paul will look forward to getting more and more face time in the coming debates.

13. Yeah, Huckabee
That would be two more votes in Huckabee's favor. Hey, every vote counts.

3. Any candidate from either party would be a fool to drop out before Super Duper Tuesday

If they are in it this long, they might as well go to the big dance.

11. Why?
Their support may dry up following IA and NH. Faced with sinking poll numbers, the only answer is to throw in the towel.

4. I agree with you on Thompson. He is too lazy to run. His wife is the one wanting it anyway.

16. He is only running to please his wife. There is no enthusiasm in his run.
Huckabee will probably win. He wants to win the most of all of them.

5. They'd save time and $$$ by getting a group rate.
All of them should fold up their tent.

8. Hunter and Dead Fred
Dead Fred is going over like a lead balloon. Huckabile is stealing his Christian supporters. Hunter is a no-name.

10. Thompson was the joke of the year, wasn't he?
He was the best candidate in the world till he decided to run.
