Should Fred Go?

As much as it pains me to admit it, the likelihood of Fredmentum catching fire and vaulting Thompson to the nomination is exceedingly small.  So should Fred get out? On this question, I’m with Jim Geraghty, who suggests there would be value in Fred’s staying in the race through Super Tuesday,where he might collect a reasonable number of delegates. Fred has been the standard bearer of true conservative these past several months, and there is value in his continued presence to point out the very un-conservative aspects of some of those who are still left standing.
