Fred Thompson is skipping New Hampshire.
The Republican presidential candidate decided instead to campaign in South Carolina as part of an 11-day bus tour, the Associated Press reports:
"This is where we make our stand — this is where I have chosen to make my stand," Thompson told a crowd at a barbecue restaurant. He later told reporters he needs to do well in South Carolina, which votes Jan. 19.
"There's no question about it. It could prove at the end of the day that South Carolina is determinative as far as I’m concerned, but we're not there yet," he said.
