“Great news that Senator Fred Thompson is doing so well in Iowa, Florida, Georgia, South & North Carolina, etc. So sad that a truther peacecreep kook like Rep. Ron Paul is polling better than Rep. Duncan Hunter. Time for the Hunterites to join the Fredheads and unite to elect a viable conservative, IMO. Hopefully President Thompson will appoint Mr. Hunter to Defense, Homeland Security, FEMA, Veterans Affairs or some other appropriate post. Perhaps he can make Ron Paul ambassador to Antarctica.”

There are 25% of the Republicans that have proclivities that might not make them Republicans thus the support to Rudy. Hunter and Thompson have records as conservatives and Thompson is the most electable at this point, and I think he is the most electable across all bounds so I switched from Hunter to Thompson some time ago. I would rather win with a conservative then die as a party behind someone that is nothing more than Hillary lite.

Those with proclivities less than Republican will vote for a Republican because they are probably libertarian fiscal conservatives.

Senator Fred Thompson is the only major candidate that gets it. He makes decisions based on principles. Principles don’t change. You have to stand for something and not change who you are based on the polls. That is what Mitt Romney and Rudy Giuliani have done and all of the Democrats do it. Give me a leader that will stand by his principles anyday versus someone that stands for everything.

I know many, many Republicans that will stay home if Rudy Giuliani is the candidate. He does not represent our values as Conservatives, and never will. Mitt Romney is a RINO (though a very nice man) that simply has everything else and nothing to do: “I guess I’ll just try to buy the presidency”. Conservatives will simply stay home and the Democrats will pick up additional seats in the House and probably get the 60 seats in the Senate they need to completely destroy our Country. Nice picture huh?

However, I think Fred can bring America back together, if that’s even possible. America needs a rebirth of patriotism and honor. Republicans also need a rebirth. President Reagan was our last rebirth and he can never be duplicated. Fred Thompson will bring his own down-to-earth common sense to this Country and strength back to our party. A little of the good old days of faith and family would do well for this Country. If a Conservative runs as a Conservative, he will win!

Think of it this way: Eight years of another Clinton White House? Now if that is not a sufficient enough reason to pull together as a party, as a Country, and fight this socialist liberal takeover of our government, what is? It is not impossible to take back the House and the Senate. We are winning in Iraq—they know it. The best they can do now is stop our progress and choose defeat, just like they did during Vietnam. We lost because Congress chose defeat. History repeats itself when not learned from.

Folks, we are in for the fight of our lives, just as our young men and women are fighting for our freedoms in Iraq and Afghanistan, we must fight for our Country right here and now! I truly believe Fred Thompson is the one man who can pull this party and nation back together! Rudy Giuliani will just tear us apart as a party. Liberal is liberal every day of the week.

Really tick off the leftist hippies and contribute to Fred Thompson: https://www.fred08.com/contribute.aspx?RefererID=c637caaa-315c-4b4c-9967-08d864cd0791
