Frankly, I don’t care if Fred shows up to any of the future primary debates. This time around the number of GOP debates is out of control and for the most part, they’ve been uneventful. No one is gonna remember most of these dog and pony shows anyway. Of course, Fred will attend some debates. How many, who knows.

Primary debates have never been a major factor in determining who I vote for. Most people I know don't vote fior someone based on how well they do in debates. After all, Republicans aren’t nominating the best debater. We are nominating the best man for POTUS. And right now, that appears to boil down to two candidates. One liberal named Giuliani and one conservative named Fred Thompson.

Uh, Okayyyy.

You mean, you don't recall one of the best lines in a primary debate EVER, when the very man of your Freeper moniker-namesake, chewed out journalists, referencing his microphone he had bought? That 1980 Nashua primary debate in New Hampshire was a pivotal moment, and even President Reagan stated that later that it "helped me take the White House."

I am sorry. These debates are important.

It think there is just rationalizing going on about avoiding them--I think unless someone comes down with the shingles or german measles, no reason why one should duck.
