Fred Thompson FAQ: THE Fred Thompson Web Resource
This is interesting.
I’m not convinced Mr. Gingrich would necessarily be a good President. But he has his head on straight and I respect his judgment (on other than personal matters), his intelligence and his ideology.
If he really is supporting Fred Thompson, that is a plus for Fred.
Only MHO, of course.
Newt = SecState
I take anything from Politico with a grain of salt.
Newt flirts with (Fred) Thompson
the republican candidate, even if it is thompson will need a significant number of independent voters to vote gop to eek out a win.
gingrich will cause most non-partisans to run in the other direction.
IMHO
Not long ago, I wanted Gingrich to run for POTUS and I probably would have voted for him. But, along came the Gingrich vs. Kerry global warming “debate” and basically Newt and Kerry are arm in arm on everything, point by point. Gingrich is now off my radar. Later, Newt.
Gingrich is by far the smartest guy in the political game, which is why I don’t think he’ll run.
Newt is a spoiler.
He is very smart, but very dangerous.
Wolves in sheep’s clothing have him as a mascot.
He is not to be trusted. His record shows it.
Don’t think Fred’s elect able. Lobbyist is a dirtier word than liberal or neocon. His past along with his “good ole boy” red truck rental farce would be too much ammo for the opposition to ignore. I do believe he makes it too easy for integrity attacks.
Hmmm...the latent homosexuality sentence of the day.
Newt’s not gonna get elected to anything, he blew his electoral capital a long time ago...but there’s nothing stopping him from being appointed.
IF Gingrich takes on a policy advisory role, minus his fondness for Hillary care and Gore global warning that should be ignored at all costs, I’m okay with that.
He’s not an acceptable candidate himself. He has a weak character not unlike Clinton’s in that he falls too easily to temptation, and somehow it always ends up being about him. A reality he works to make happen even at the cost of bashing the GOP or pandering occasionally to liberal idiocy like Gore’s. Sure, usually the critisism of the GOP comes from the right, but not always. And always it’s what NEWT would do, not what conservatives (plural) should do.
Newt’s a fascinating political philosopher, but I don’t want him anywhere near a Republican ticket.
Sounds like a plan to me.
Newt would make an excellent SecState.
Oh wait, he's a member of CFR too, WE'RE DOOMED!!/s
