The Fred Thompson Campaign is Downright Pitiful

If the fact that Fred Thompson is folding up shop in New Hampshire isn't enough to tell you how big the catastrophic mess which is his campaign is, then perhaps this is:

According to the Department of Elections, Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee have been certified to be on the Delaware primary ballot on Feb.5th.

Unfortunately, Fred Thompson fell short of the 500 signature mark, and will not be on the ballot.

500 signatures? The campaign couldn't find 500 signatures? There aren't 500 people in the state of Delaware who've seen a re-run of Law and Order?
