Go down to "John McCain is the Leader". Fred is going to stay in to help his buddy McCain i.e. take some of the Southern vote from Huckabee. He took a swipe at Huck and Romney at the youtube debate so I still think McCain is his choice this time around.
McCain is certainly persistent. Interesting win for him, as I have heard SC described as Republican Establishment, and John as a bit of a loose cannon. Interesting times.

RE: John McCain captures SC
I think McCain is the GOP establishment and the fall back vote when people have problems with the other candidates. I hope he is enough to beat Hillary or Obama. It is hard for me to understand how GOP voters can get euphoric over a McCain ticket and that is problematic. If he wins the primary, his choice of VP will make or break him. The person I expect could be considered would be Lieberman. He is widely regarded as one of the most intelligent and shrewd politicians in Washingtonbut his Jewish heritage and independent status would prove an obstacle.
