"Ah yes....

The old, “my liberal is better because he has an “R” after his name” argument.

That thinking is how we got the disaster we call the Bush administration this time around.

Conservatives either take back the Republican party, or we accept that the movement is dead.

Even if that means that the liberal with the “D” after his/her name wins.

It’s not about party. It’s about core values and beliefs.

Settling for less is what has got us here to begin with.

Okay, point the way Brother, show me the way, name the candidate(s) who can win and they have my vote.

[BallandPowder]

powder..patch..ball fIRE!

I’ll sit out also...

[Prophet in the wilderness]

Yeah... but Jim ? how do we know this is or is not the very influential evangelical person we heard about a few days ago who didn't want to be named who trow his support towards Fred Thompson ?

[Prophet in the wilderness]

I don’t think Rudy will get the GOP nomination ( maybe he should challenge Hillary and Obama on the Democrat side ) .... once Fred Thompson enters the race, it is dust in the wind for the 3 stogies, Fred WILL get the GOP nomination.

[Prophet in the wilderness]

" So far I haven't seen a candidate that has the ability to inspire the country. " ......
One candidate can and will inspire the GOP and the country, and that is Fred Thompson.

[Lijahsbubbe]

He has been married three times, and his second wife was forced to go to court to keep his mistress out of the mayoral mansion while the Giuliani family still lived there.

What? Those are pretty harsh words coming from someone who stood by his buddy Ted, who was a gay, masseuse visiting, coke user.

I'm not pro-Rudy, but think Dobson's as phony as the Rhinos we saw in action today.

[Prophet in the wilderness]

What some people may see in Mr. Dobson in what may turn then off is, that they see a man who is totally immersed and 100% passionate about the families, our country's moral and character, and raising the next generation.
James Dobson is very concerned about the course our country is taking, and rightfully so, and so many have taken his extreme passion for his concern for our country the wrong way, but, you need to look at him in a different perspective.... the man truly cares about our country, and the next generation coming up.

[Prophet in the wilderness]

" Fred Thompson isn’t running yet either " ......

My pick ( Was ) originally George Allen, but, we all know how that turned out, and I still support Duncan Hunter ( but, he will need a mega sized miracle to win even the GOP nomination ) ... however, when Fred Thompson came on the seen, I will support a Thompson/Hunter GOP ticket in 2008.
Cali Patriot ? Fred Thompson will run, most likely next month that he will announce.
About a month ago James Dobson said something about Fred Thompson that he was not a Christian or not, but, I think Dobson will come around and figure that Thompson is our best hope to win the White house again, so ? I think Dobson will think long and hard and trow his support towards Fred Thompson.

[Prophet in the wilderness]

Wheather James Dobson supports anyone or not will not influence my vote, I still respect Jame Dobson, but, still, I will make my choice on my own.

[California Patriot]

I don’t doubt that James Dobson cares very deeply and fights hard for these things. I give him much credit for that. But I do seriously question his political judgment in those cases where he trashes the Republican party or recommends abstention, or possibly in ‘08 a third-party vote. Only the party’s leadership, and if possible specific leaders of groups of leaders, should be trashed — never the party itself. Abstention or the third-party route in general elections is never right, except in occasional congressional races with rare circumstances. It is never, ever right in a presidential race. But still, that doesn’t detract from Dobson’s dedication to family-values issues, only from his judgment.

[California Patriot]

Yes, and that will be true of the large, large majority of family-values voters. However, if several major leaders also take Dobson’s position, collectively it could be hugely damaging.

[California Patriot]

I wouldn’t be surprised if Dobson supported Fred.
I wouldn’t mind Thompson as the candidate, and I wouldn’t mind Hunter as Veep. They’re two of the better people in the race, or potentially in it.

One things we know, as you say: It sure won’t be George Macacawitz Allen.

[Grunthor]

You are absolutely right. Rudy should drop out for the sake of the party.

[Smittie]

I like Thompson too, I just wish he’d jump in before it’s too late.

[The_Media_never_lie]

So, what Dr. Dobson is saying is that he would rather see Hillary elected than Rudy? That’s what his actions would bring upon us.

[Prophet in the wilderness]

For what others are saying, and a few reports, after his LAW & ORDER gig ( or contract ) is over ( I heard the last show with him on was last night ) .. he said he was going to go in a vacation with his family and talk it over with his family, and possibly announce 2 nd week of June.
So I guess it will be in about 3 weeks he will enter the race to run for President of the USA.
