...result: In national polls that once had Thompson running even or better with front-runner Rudy Giuliani, Thompson now trails by double digits. More troubling for Thompson is the emergence of Mike Huckabee, the former Baptist minister and Arkansas governor who is now statistically tied for first with Mitt Romney in the latest ABC News/Washington Post poll of likely Iowa G.O.P. caucus voters.

Then a McCain victory in South Carolina would, at the very least, make it a fair fight that McCain could...
