OK. How's this. He is innocent of the fetid BS accusations of wrongdoing that you are insinuating. Better?
Much better stated....but not accurate.
He accepted donations and he and Cunningham steered contracts for political contribution support from defense contracts, IMHO.
Besides, the reason he's un-electable nation-wide, and would cost the Republicans the White House in 2008 is because he is unknown nationally, literally, and doesn't have the funds to compete. He would be obliterated by the Klintoon machine in the MSM/airwaves, and no amount of conservative values he holds would gain him enough support from the "middle".
Fred Thompson has nation-wide recognition, minimal baggage, and could pull a "Reagan" in the 2008 election.
