If a Candidate Falls in the Forest...

Sam Brownback, the two term Senator from Kansas and the best hope for Evangelical Christians this year, has suspended his campaign for the Republican nomination. Mike Huckabee and Fred Thompson might be the only Americans who noticed, since both are in line for his few supporters and donors.

On another Evangelical note, Fred Thompson told the crowd at the Family Values Conference in DC yesterday that he would spend his first hour as President praying in the Oval Office. If Fred does win, I think I'll be praying, too, but for different reasons. Perhaps he should pray for a work ethic in pursuit of the nomination.

Back to the NH trip shortly. I just had to get that off my chest.

Sam Brownback's "fall" seems to have helped Mike Huckabee:

Zogby International released the results of an online survey today that show half of likely voters nationwide said they would never vote for New York Sen. Hillary Clinton for president.

At the other end of the scale, only one candidate -- Democrat Bill Richardson -- faired better than Republican Mike Huckabee.
