That's because they ALL agree with him. Rudy, Mitt, McLAME .... so far all the so called TOP TIER candidates are gun grabbers of the highest order.
A few, like Duncan Hunter and Ron Paul are strong supporters of the 2nd Amendment, too bad they've got a snowball's chance in Hell of being elected. Fred is both a true conservative AND he's totally electable.
Especially in light of the front running RAT'S negatives. Hillary is the annoited one for their nomination and I'll bet a ton of Dems would vote against her just for who she is and what she represents! Same for Barack and even more so for HIM.
OTOH, if the 'Pubbie nominee is anybody BUT Fred Thompson, I wouldn't give a Hoot in Hell for the chances of victory. I for one will switch my Party affiliation from "R" to "I" and I won't vote. I refuse to vote to cut my own throat. It will mean that the mainstream of my own party to which I've been so loyal for the past 32 years will have literally walked away from my core values and beliefs.
