What kind of ridiculous response is that? Seriously, if you cannot look at where Thompson is spending his time; if you can't read the speeches he makes at his appearances and see his positions and how he's selling them, then you must be one of these so-glib, so-cool types who think that if a candidate isn't taking you by the hand and personally speaking to you.
By the God you find holy, Freepers, grow a pair and quit the childish whining, will you, please?
