Thompson-McCain!

It’s a natural fit – and dreadful news for Romney. There’s almost no likelihood of Fred coming higher than third in Iowa, and that seemed to be his get-out point until late last night. McCain now has the highest favorables of any candidate on either side and Romney has the lowest. You do the math. The Rasmussen numbers – assuming they’re not an outlier – are also bad news for Obama: the Clinton sliming has taken a toll on his negatives.
