“Folksy Fred...” Bob Dole redux.
This just in: Mitt Romney is a more effective communicator of the factors involved in executive decision making than any candidate — for a long time — including Ronald Reagan (who was likely better with political philosophy and emotional leadership).
Just sayin’....
These types of articles serve no purpose other than to create animosity among FReepers.
he should communicate better with us. like, is he going to run or not?
it will take a republican greater than Reagan to win in 08. Anyone see one on the horizon? Didn’t think so. Mirages can be very misleading.

WARNING: If you want to join, be aware that this ping list is EXTREMELY active.
Fred Thompson will advance through the campaign process on his own merits. He is a good communicator and a good conservative. If conservatives like what they hear from Fred, he’ll win the nomination. FredT maybe Reaganesque, I don’t see him being Reagan-like. Enough already. There was only one Ronald Reagan.
BS!
zzzzzzz.....
Well, we just don’t know that yet, do we?
Let’s wait and see how it all plays out.
Right. When the time comes, you can write in Alan Keyes name. LOL
Reagan had better hair
Fred's response to Michael Moore showed he has a great sense of (biting) humor, and knows how to use it.
Come on, now, you know perfectly well, at this stage, he can’t come out and say the words.
Fred epitomizes my political beliefs, and desired political style. I’m backing him...win, lose, or draw.
If the nomination goes to someone other than FRed, Hunter, or Tancredo, I sit at home and eat popcorn while watching reruns.
“Reagan had better hair”
Reagan had hair! LOL
That won't get anyone, including Mitt, elected.
One way in which Fred reminds me of Dutch is that both men understand that for a conservative to be elected President he must build a broad coalition. Pro-life, pro-2A, pro-Constitution, pro-sovereignty, pro-defense, federalist, limited-government, supply-side, low-tax, pro-family, pro-faith; we need EVERYBODY pulling at the oars together to keep the ship moving. I just don’t think Rudy, Mitt or McCain could ever pull this off. I hope that Fred can.
I’ll vote for fred if he’s the nominee.
I’m not so sure that he’ll be the nominee.
I agree. It’s almost like watching Tevye in Fiddler on the Roof. On the other hand...On the other hand....On the other hand.
