The guy with “disappointing” fundrasing who ain’t in the race yet is almost doubling your boy in the polls despite the fact he has been at it since day one and has been spending cash like a drunken sailor...

I guess I've been callous. :)

cool.

AND he does not have to participate in that silly dog and pony debate.

(BTW has he made a statement on the fact they are now issuing marriage licenses to homosexual as a result of one state court judges order?)

Yeah, have a heart. Be kind to those less fortunate than you.

We all have made bad choices at some point...

True. As Fred supporters, we can afford to be magnanimous.

“Stop whining.”

That’s probably the thing that annoys me the most about Anti-Freds. I guess that’s the reason we have a scroller.

Wait... he is dodging McCain-Feingold regulations...

He's not "dodging regulations", he is playing within the rules and playing to win. I want him to do both. Why don't you?

“”As Fred supporters, we can afford to be magnanimous.””’


When you have 51% of freepers, with another 19% FR Duncan Hunter support coming your way, with the rest of the strays moving to your side as the months go by (except for the Romney cult, which is a whole different story), I would say that the Thompson crowd can afford to be confident and gracious.

“So, with September 6th he gets a two-fer. He gets to duck the September 5th debate and hide his disappointing fund-raising. That is inspirational leadership.”

No kidding. Not to mention he outed the liars who kept touting the Law and Order excuse. He might have been better off if he’d joined them. At least it was a halfway respectable excuse.

We’ve said all along that he’s not ready for prime time...with articles like this written by your own campaign, as the saying goes, “who needs enemies”?

“I hope there’s a spot for my other two guys (Tanc and Hunter) in the FRedministration.”

Hows about Duncan Hunter VP and Tanc to head up the border patrol or Dept of Homeland Security?

I really like the Hunter folks.

Even pissant ;-)...

There are times I wish he really had it in him to mount a national effort, but alas...

If Tanc’s not VP have him head ICE and if Hunter’s not VP I go with him for SECDEF or DHS.

I agree...hope he’s as good as my instincts say he is. Most important, though, is his ability to connect with ordinary Americans. You have it or you don’t. Fred has it, thank God.

I agree. I like Hunter a lot, too, but he can’t beat Hillary or Obama.
