“Fred Thompson is my guy. A real life Federalist. A Thompson/Hunter ticket, with Newt in the cabinet, be still my little Constitution huggin heart.”

Wait until the media gets done with Fred. He’ll be dubbed a Bob Dole without the resume.

I keep hearing how Hillary is unelectable yet she looks like the sure-thing nominee for the democrats - and you know she’ll run a better campaign than Lurch or that stiff Algore.

Look, if you’re a Mitt fan, I’m sure that the article is bringing you news that you don’t want to hear. I’m sorry about that. However, your comments display your sheer ignorance when it comes to Fred Thompson and what the media can do to him. They’ve thrown everything but the kitchen sink at him and he’s only getting stronger. And he hasn’t even STARTED YET.

Mitt isn’t gaining traction and yes, Fred Thompson’s presence in this race has a good deal to do with that. But take the MittGoggles off for a moment and look at the big picture.

Thompson knows how to handle the media, and he takes no s*!t from anyone. He is big, gregarious, honest, and not afraid to piss people off. He is FANtastic. I lived in Tennessee when he was Senator there.

All the media he has already gotten has put in in second place in most polls, and that is before he was even a candidate. The media is what has put him where he is, the fools. Fred has gotten nothing but free campaign airtime just by staying out of the race and allowing the media to fuel speculation.

As far as Hillary and Obama go, they will tear each other up, so it's a toss up at this point as to which one will end up getting the nod.
