Since when do we measure a candidate by looking at his or her voting record? If this method of selecting a candidate ever becomes widely known it will spell the end of the Democrat party for sure and put the Republicans in deep doo doo.

Let’s go back to picking the candidate who makes the the best stage appearance, is witty in debate and wears the right color tie in public.

Comparing voting records is a bore and requires thinking. It will never catch on.

Fred Thompson should be measured by his minot role in the movie, “Hunt for Red October.” If you believe he did a good acting job then it follows that he will make a good president.

Of course! “Minot’? ;-)

Seriously, though, if all we have for a choice on the Republican ticket is Rudy McRomney, then I’m done being a Republican and I’ll write in Fred’s name as President and Duncan Hunter as VP (he just doesn’t have the name recognition to go far, unfortunately, though I like him a lot too)—hopefully if Fred doesn’t make the Republican ticket, then he’ll run as an Independent or even help in the formation of a new party—I’ve seen other people suggest this too, and I think it’s a great idea. Lately it’s been mighty hard to tell the Dems and Reps apart, if you know what I mean.
