Rasmussen on the GOP Race : How the Media Gets it Wrong

Rasmussen weighs in on the media hype vs. electoral reality:

Both Romney and Huckabee received a minor bounce in the polls for a few days [after the Iowa Straw Poll]. But, two weeks later, the national polls show that the Iowa event had virtually no impact. Romney remains mired in third place barely ahead of John McCain. Huckabee's support continues to be measured in the mid-single digits....

[R]eporters have picked up on a story line that Fred Thompson's delay in entering the race has been a mistake. However, the polls show Thompson remains more of a threat to Giuliani's lead that Romney. His support is down a bit from its peak, but he's still showing a lot of potential.

Which brings us to our Fred Thompson Frank fact of the day:
Fred Thompson can know both the exact position and momentum of a particle. Furthermore, he knows Schroedinger's cat is dead because he personally strangled it.
