Not too bad for a liberal website, except their saying Fred trails Rudy in South Carolina--he doesn't. (See RealClearPolitics)

Stands to reason. CFR member Fred is prompted by this globalist CFR administration to shine. This administration who is pushing to get L.O.S.T. passed, and get comprehensive amnesty for illegals sneaked into any bill coming up; who has signed away our sovereignty with the NAU, and is now pushing to get one of their very own nominated to inherit “the throne”. No thank you very much!

Fred? An absolute outrage, I mean who the heck wants some Mayor of Massachusets as President. Those people haven’t gotten over their energy crisis yet, what would he know?

[cquiggy]

Fred stood tall above the herd. He is real and down to earth. He impresses me as someone who understands the common man. Unlike Rommney the fact spewing robot. Rudy is too liberal. Huckabee suffers from inheriting Bll Clintons former position in Arkansas. Do they watch cartoons and Andy Griffith reruns all day in the Governors mansion what was up with his two tv references. The rest of them haven’t got a chance much less a clue.

"former New York Sen. Al D'Amato played Rudy Giuliani. To add verisimilitude to his character, D'Amato pretended to take a phone call in the middle of one session. "

ROFL!

Rudy didn’t win the night although he did very well. I would say that Fred won the night with Mitt right behind. Mitt’s huge gaff may have really hurt his chances. Rudy is by far the most articulate and personable with no fear of mixing it up. Obviously not a Republican.

It seems like the WHOLE political spectrum is scared sh*tless of Fred Thompson! I've seen nothing but put-downs so obvious it's sickening. Some of these writers seem amazed he doesn't show up with the remnants of a meadow muffin stuck to his boot or a pint of corn squeezins in his hip pocket.

I love seeing the left and the RINOs FEAR Fred's candidacy. GOOD !

are the dems freeping the FR poll and voting for ron paul?
i suspect they are...

[rogue yam]

He came off as genuinely unaffected instead of irritatingly folksy.

Looks like we keep the cork in it on this one, folks.

[AndyTheBear]

OK, I checked out the SC race on RealClearPolitics and I don't know what to think. The spread between the polls is insane, at least some of them must be worthless. If you throw out the most contrary one (from "American Res Group") it looks pretty good for Fred.

My husband said at diner tonight the R.G.will be last man standing againt the Hill and he felt he was the only man to beat her.I have been taking a little thrift store poll and they are all for the Hill.

Fred did fine. What's more is that he appears to be the most electable conservative candidate on the block. I donated a 2nd time already. I'm glad he's out there now, the race is taking on more shape and we can start taking on serious debate.

We have a choice: A socialist, socialist weenies or a conservative who will help in the fight to preserve your freedom and keep you from being turned into a socialist slave.

Wish Hunter could make a stronger showing, perhaps in the next administration?

Thompson didn't win the night—Rudy Giuliani did

Why is Duncan Hunter getting no respect for his performance? I'm a Fred guy, but thought that Hunter had an amazing evening.

Fred is the only candidate that can beat the Hildebeast666.

Rudy is a mirror image of her on social issues. I think the left would love to see him as the Repub. candidate because their pro-abortion, pro-homosexual policy wins on election day, either way.
