That Rasmussen Poll...   [David Freddoso]

...in Iowa suggests that John McCain — not Fred Thompson — is becoming the choice of disaffected Huckaboomers. McCain has picked up six points since the last survey, Huckabee has lost 11. Romney has gained four. Fred has gained nothing.

And if the poll is correct, then Iowa is becoming a three-way race. It is also very interesting to see that Huck's supporters are the most dedicated, and that he is the second choice for so many Iowa Republicans.

(On a side note, I'm going to ask my mother for one of those "Huckabee red" sweaters for Christmas.)

Meanwhile, in the New Hampshire poll, Rudy is down to 13 percent. The Rudy-backers who didn't go to Huckabee are going to McCain.

McCain has somehow become the second choice of both Rudy and Huckabee supporters. He appears to be everyone's candidate of last resort.
