1. Thompson...first they ignored, then they discounted him now everything he does is a mistake. This gets tiresome.
To: CometBaby
You are leaning far to the port side. Careful, you might tip over.

I do know that Thompson may have made a mistake when he said that the Virginia Tech massacre could have been avoided if the students were armed. Yes, it would have been avoided but his mistake was political. The statement made him sound like a gun nut because universities have historically had problems with shootings and massacres. What he should have said is that he supports armed security guards with concealed weapons or something to that effect. He may have alienated too many in the middle with that statement.

2. Fred Thompson - E.J. Dionne writes today that, "... Thompson's decision to delay his entry into the race until the fall is looking like a mistake."Um, yeah, EJ, that's who I turn to for conservitive political advice...
Here's your sign...

I keep forgetting..whats the downside of Thompson declaring for President now if he really wants to be President? I just cant remember whats on that list...
One downside might be that he really doesent want to run, but there must be others.

Like Mitt.

“... universities have historically had problems with shootings and massacres.”
Because a university is a target-rich (i.e., largely unarmed) environment.

“The statement made him sound like a gun nut “
So now anyone who supports the second amendment (you know the one that says the right to keep AND BEAR arms shall not be infringed) is a gun nut? In case you don’t realize, bear arms in 18th century vernacular meant to carry a firearm.
I expect to get this garbage from the left. Now I’m hearing about gun nuts from the right???

First Thomson says he’ll announce in July. Then in August. Now in September. Next he’ll say January. This is getting tiresome.
To: curiosity
“First Thomson says hell announce in July. Then in August.”
Thompson NEVER said any such thing and I challenge you to show me that he did.
btw it’s Thompson.
To: traderrob6
Okay, his staff did it. Big deal. However it was done, it's getting tiresome.
To: curiosity
I beg to differ again, nobody in his campaign authorized to make such a statement has done so.
It’s been MSM anonymous sources and pundit speculation. They are blaming Thompson for not announcing when “they” thought he would or should.
To: elizabetty
Careful .. leaning too far starboard will tip you over, as well.
