Fred Thompson
Grade: C+
More energetic and relaxed than in previous debates. Gritty and folksy when going after Giuliani and Romney over immigration, but was unable to make his points stick. Failed in his efforts to challenge mojo-charged Huckabee. Better than he's been, but not better than the others and thus not good enough.
