Seems to me if you are waiting for the perfect candidate, you'll be waiting an awful long time!
Since this has become an issue, why doesn’t Fred Thompson himself, issue a clarification.
I think there is a lot of misreporting going on.
This is a good story but was posted earlier in the day.

I’m not the posting police, I was just on the other thread earlier. The subject is important, how gullible are we when the MSM puts out some twisted information?
This Fred supporter thinks that this is MSM-driven and advanced by supporters of other candidates to hopefully convince others that Fred’s not a candidate they should support. For some here on FR, it has obviously worked.
And, you are absolutely right, those looking for The 100%Perfect Candidate are never going to find one.
Enwright is either a political genius (Karl Rove in training) or he is a soldier, marching on orders from the Bush campaign. For those conservatives who like the policies of Bush, it is good news. And for those conservatives who thought Bush was wrong on illegals and entitlement spending it just might mean more of the same.
So it begs a question: Is Thompson a Reagan conservative, or a Bush conservative?
That being said, I've read repeated claims about what Abraham isn't running or doing, but there's no real explanation of what he will be doing.
A "MERE" campaign advisor, and an "Ambassador" to Washington?
Sounds peculiar.
