At least he acknowledges that he cannot hope to &amp;quot;survive January&amp;quot; without getting a win somewhere, but he won't get one in NH given Romney edge there unless he first takes on Romney in Iowa... which seems quite impossible (recent poll: &lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://www.campaigndiaries.com/2007/10/romney-crushes-field-in-iowa-democrats.html"&gt;http://www.campaigndiaries.com/2007/10/romney-crushes-field-in-iowa-democrats.html&lt;/a&gt; ) at the moment! &lt;br&gt;Full analysis of the GOP race and Giuliani's fundamental problem: &lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://www.campaigndiaries.com/2007/10/giuliani-betting-on-new-hampshire.html"&gt;http://www.campaigndiaries.com/2007/10/giuliani-betting-on-new-hampshire.html&lt;/a&gt;</description></item><item><title>Fred -- or' Freddie' -- files in NH</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/29/436683.aspx#437173</link><pubDate>Tue, 30 Oct 2007 03:44:01 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:437173</guid><dc:creator>I Remember U Fred, Nashville, TN</dc:creator><description>Fred....Quoting Yogi Berra and blindly backing Dubya are not the way to garner informed voters....only gonna impress the rabid Repug brownshirts, drug addled Rushies and neo-nuts.....of course for you to talk intelligently &amp;nbsp;would take some work, you would actually have to do something against your nature, that is get off your lazy seat and exercise your brain. </description></item><item><title>Fred -- or' Freddie' -- files in NH</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/29/436683.aspx#437180</link><pubDate>Tue, 30 Oct 2007 03:51:25 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:437180</guid><dc:creator>Steve Turner Cedar Falls Iowa</dc:creator><description>Are you sure it's not Freddie Krueger Thompson? &amp;nbsp;I mean, it is Halloween.</description></item><item><title>Fred -- or' Freddie' -- files in NH</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/29/436683.aspx#437217</link><pubDate>Tue, 30 Oct 2007 04:38:11 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:437217</guid><dc:creator>MJ, Murrieta, CA</dc:creator><description>Funny how Fred can barely remember what he voted for, but somehow recollects how his &amp;quot;rivals&amp;quot; voted.

One of the country characters goes to city, sees billboards saying &amp;quot;are you ready for Freddy?&amp;quot; &amp;nbsp;Not knowing what it means he tells various people he encounters that he is ready for Freddy. Some people are kind and sympathetic to him and give him money and favors. Others say he won't need money and beat and rob him. The responses are very puzzling and contradictory until after the joke has run for many weeks in the cartoon it is revealed that Freddy is an undertaker and &amp;quot;ready for Freddy&amp;quot; means you are dying.&lt;br&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
