Where's my broom?

I am running out of negative things to say about Sen. Thompson, so I guess I’ll end with the one that is probably the most important: I don’t want to say anything nice about him that may hurt his chances to be the Republican presidential nominee, because if the right wing hears that I like him, that could be the end of his candidacy.
So let me just limit my positive comments by saying: He is authentic and powerfully smart and very fair.
I hope he isn’t the GOP nominee because he would be very difficult to beat — although my candidate, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (N.Y.), and he, if they were the Democratic and Republican nominees, respectively, would ensure a great and high level of debate on the issues, rather than “gotcha” attacks back and forth that both of them, I am certain, completely reject.
So Sen. Thompson — you can say that I strongly disagree with you because you are too conservative, and am supporting Sen. Clinton. But honestly: I think an awful lot of Democrats and independents would share with me their high level of respect for you, as well as their concern that you may be the most difficult Republican to beat in November 2008.

Lany, Lanny, Lanny. You're an awful nice guy (for a liberal), but, honestly, you're so naive about your beloved H. Rotten Clinton. The woman and her hubby are sharks.
You can be certain that Hillary Clinton wants to pretend there will be no "gotcha" attacks, because she is so vulnerable to them.
There would be a lot of "gotcha" attacks on her behalf. Don't know about Thompson.
Personally, I think he'd mop the floor up with her in a debate.
If Terry Mc Slimeball is running Mrs. Bill Clinton's campaign it will be smear city. You can bet on it.
Why do Davis' comments bring to mind Br'r Rabbits' plea "Please don't throw me into that briar patch"?......
There is enough ammo in the FR archives and in the work done by Alamo Girl to bury Hillary a million times over. She is a fool to think that we have gone away.
He wouldn't even need to debate. He could just stand there and spew gibberish. His superior vocal quality alone (or the 'Beast's lack thereof) would be enough to crush her.
The Clintonistas and the drive by media will be hard to beat, but the evidence against the Clintons has not been forgotten, it only needs to resurface with force!
You mean that POS isn't in prison for raiding union workers' pensions yet?
I am a Romney guy, but Fred would be a damn good choice if he is willing to give it his all.
My preferences:
Romney
Fred
Rudy
...
...
...
Last--McCain!
He would need to go first, though. If Hillary went first, I wouldn't be able to hear anything he said because my ears would be damaged from her shrieking.

They are scared of a Thompson run, they know if Hillary is the nominee, she will have to stick to the issues, the first time the mud flies, she will get a TON of crap dumped on her. She knows it, Thompson knows it, and she knows WE here know it.
Translation: Be afraid Hillary, be very Afraid
