Do you think Fred Thompson would make a good running mate for John Edwards?

I know that Thompson is a registered Republican and Edwards a Democrat, but both are former Tort attorneys who made a bank off of representing clients for personal injury lawsuits.

If you think about it, Thompson, is nothing more than a RINO. Thats why he took so long deciding whether to run.

While in the Senate, he voted against legislation which would tighten up the ability to file frivolous lawsuits and against legislation which would limit attorney fees.

In addition, he used to be a lobbyist for the Teamsters Union and supported the McCain-Feingold Campaign Finance bill.

Like I said, the right record is not in Fred.

Neither the force nor the farce are with him.

Any one who thinks not is voting Fred rather than dead. We have already gone through all that with the Rudi Rooter.

There are several candidates who would be better presidents than Fred, who is really a GW Bush remake, without the money or family connections.

Thompson was never a tort attorney (while he filed a civil suit on behalf of Marie Ragghianti, it was an anti-corruption case, not a tort), and his opposition to "tort reform" in the Senate was based on his belief that the federal government should not be handling a matter best left to the states.

Get your facts straight before launching attacks.

No. You pushing Silky Pony?

I have thought about it, and I don't think Fred is a RiNO. And anyone who didn't take a long time to decide whether to run, is a numnuts, a fanatic, or an egomaniac. It wouldn't take, e.g., Cindy Sheehan long at all, or Mike Moore, or any of a number of other moonbat meatheads very long to decide that Destiny had called her/him. A reasonable man with small children at home, would think twice or three times before jumping in.

And the first primary is still seven and a half months away. So just take a number and stand by.

That legislation was written by the insurance lobby. I'd think twice before voting for it myself. In case you haven't heard, lawyers are the antidote to what insurance companies do after every damned hurricane -- even though they know people will be watching them.

Yeah? Who you got, smart guy?
