Fred Thompson himself has said he needs to do “very well” in South Carolina for his presidential campaign to go on. Most analysts have said that means winning, or at least placing a very strong second.

A finish like that - behind McCain with 26 percent and Huckabee with 36 percent, but beating Romney by 9, would be plenty reason to stay in the race.
