I track with Thompson's positions better than anyone else's, and think that he is genuine about them. My belief is that the media has prosecuted an agenda to eliminate Thompson, though he could have worked harder earlier to dispel those myths.
My personal opinion is that Rudy, Huckabee, and especially Romney are running from their past and hold views that are opposed to the Republican base.
I understand the need to court moderates and independents.
For my taste, Huckabee is too liberal on social issues (especially illegal immigration, criminals, etc.) and is way to much into nambyism and big government. Not a Reagan Republican at all.
On the other hand, Rudy and Romney are even worse.
