Thompson went to NH for roughly 24 hours but is spending three days in Florida according to his communications team's press release. This makes a whole lot more sense than battling for second or third in Iowa and NH. He seems to be following Rudy's strategy-- survive early on and do well in SC and Florida. While SC seems immeniently winnable for Thompson, Florida will be a challenge where Rudy leads strongly in polls, has the benefit of a strong staff and has plenty of money for big media ad buys. Will Charlie Crist with 70% approval rating try to play kingmaker? I'm thinking he will, but not right away.
