The first primary is a few months away. The only edge that I saw he ever had was media buzz, name recognition and few votes he made in the Senate.
Such edges tend to dull very quickly when there isn’t the substance to keep them sharp. Keep your eyes and ears open and be sure the star you hitch you wagon to isn’t a falling star.
Remember, it is never about one man, but the man that we are sure will further our beliefs, our ideology. We get to elect our nominee and we as conservatives are cheated when we make this about polls, media hype and popularity.
We can couch our decisions under guise of realistic chances, poll numbers, pragmatism (no pun intended), but in the end it should only be a matter of choosing who is best for our country. The decision we make will be very important to the future of this nation and I take it very seriously. If you make a different decision and are fully aware of the import; I trust your decision.
There is no other way . It’s Thompson or bust . I like Hunter, but Hunter can’t do it .
The others are too Liberal or would get shredded in the general election .
Thompson will also pull people who don’t normally vote , which like it or not, will be important to winning the general .
The other candidates (in both parties) could only dream about pulling the general populace vote the way Fred will .
