I have to say when I listened to Fred attempting to justify his "no" vote, I couldn't really follow his reasoning. He was obviously trying to have it both ways to preserve his political viability and claim he voted "no" before he voted "yes" on impeachment. What a profile in courage.
I always wanted Thompson to run for President and was really surprised when he wussed out of the Senate and went back to Hollywood after the Democrats concentrated their smear machine on him.
I also have to say both campaigns were equally lame, but it didn't matter, the media and the Democrats wanted to run against McCain so they trivialized and belittled Thompson and trashed Jerry. They used a media blackout against Giuliani. And they got McCain.
You and your little chorus of malcontents can do the Democrats bidding all you want, Giuliani was the only one they feared...and rightly so.
You're kiddin', aren't you?
