Fred Thompson, the Second Coming of Ronald Reagan?

It took 4 years of the peanut farmer for the voters to recognize what Reagen stood for...and that was after he had lost the nomination to that powerhouse Gerald Ford 4 years earlier. I know what we have had since Reagan and our next contestant had better have kissed that Blarney Stone twice if we want to keep Clinton/Osama from destroying what remains of the USA.

Oh geez, I’m so sick of this “Fred is Reagan” stuff. Just because he’s an actor gone into politics does not make him the next Ronald Reagan. Unless he can get elected and end the coming Cold War, he’s not like Reagan at all.

Fox News is in Giuliani’s pocket — I’m not taking much of what they say about the primaries seriously. All of these allusions to Reagan are transparent attempts to make Thompson look bad in comparison. Thompson is his own man, and is an excellent fit for our times.

Reagan was Reagan and Fred is Fred.

That said, similar to Reagan, I predict Fred will run an across the board conservative campaign. His speeches, interviews and essays over the past 5 months all point to that.

“Fred Thompson, the Second Coming of Ronald Reagan?”

Not a chance in hell and I say that as one that will likely vote for him, if not in the primary, then in the general.

Oh, please, not another one of these! There was only one Ronald Reagan, and I haven't heard Fred try to compare himself to RR. What others say about him, he can't control.

This lobbying gig was for just about 20 hours, over a two year period, almost 20 years ago. I doubt I could remember the full details of something in which I was so lightly involved, that long ago, without someone reminding me of the details. I certainly don't hold that against Fred.

I guess if I can’t have Duncan Hunter I’ll settle for FDT.
