And while they've been doing it your way, Fred has vaulted to second or third (depending), doing it his way. Sounds pretty smart to me.

I’m With Fred!
I thought he was going to announce on the 4th of July.
Sounds good to me!
I don’t like the 4th too hollywood Rocky feel to it. Do it NOWWWWWWWWWW

Superb graphic!
Then where has he been? While the other guys have been campaigning their hearts out, Fred fiddles. I wish I knew how to build a web site; I’d start one called “FredFiddles” dot something or other.

What a sorry excuse for a poster. Is that your sole purpose to come on to every Fred thread and take a dump?
Quit trolling lady...
If you haven't noticed Fred is getting more national air time than all the other candidates combined. Fred made an appearance on Hannity and Combs last night. Fred appeared on Kudlow's TV show today. Fred is doing his radio show. Fred is making video clips and getting mega hits on Youtube. Fred is in second place without spending a dime.
Unfortunately for ALL of them, they are getting the cold shoulder form the largest portion of the Republican base, those who believe gun control, abortion, borders, gay-rights, and the proper defense of this country should come first. Some of the current field has flip-flopped on any one of these issues so much we don't know which way they are going. That scares me and it should worry you.
FDT has made his statements time and again. We, who support him KNOW where he stands on ALL of these issues. He hasn't flipped, hasn't flopped. He has answered every question about his views with direct talk. No beating around the bush. No pandering for support. Just plain straight talk.
He is building his base now, and he appeals to the ones who are not pleased with what is available. Watch the groundswell of support grow and become the juggernaut call Fred Dalton Thompson.
Glad you like it....Beth
Oh my goodness! Well THANK YOU!!!!!! :) Wow! Just wow!
Fred Thompson is good enough to be president of the US. No one else running in either party can honestly make the same claim for themselves.
Happy to do it!
Thompson is playing your guys like a master musician. Letting them bleed into one loud rumble as he hits his points on his own pulpit. They are making the Rudy McRomney joke a reality while Fred runs a new campaign of running his way. Maybe it will back fire and maybe its pure genius.
All I know is that the only real deadline for Thompson is the filing dates for the various primaries not the arbitrary time line born of modern tradition and the news media.
I’ll give you credit.
You’re brave as hell for saying anything negative about Fred.
The Fred fans are just as sensitive as the Rudy fans were.
I read somewhere last week that it was Jeri’s idea for Fred to do that video. If that’s true, then she is a awesome asset to his campaign. Helps to be married to a former GOP media consultant!
You're obviously NOT paying attention. He's been doing commentaries for ABC and a stint on the Paul Harvey show. How else do you think all of us have learned about him?
The only requirement in announcing his candidacy is that he'd have to do it before the first Republican primary in time to get on the ballot. He doesn't have to announce when everyone else does. If he's getting good publicity without having to spend campaign dollars, sounds like a smart dude to me!
