Some time ago I posted on FR a complete background study of Fred’s votes on illegal immigration during his term in the Senate (provided by NumbersUSA, a non-partisan, non-profit, organization which endorses no candidates) and he was graded a singularly unimpressiive “C.” Tancredo and Hunter were the only Republicans who earned an A+. Yes, that’s only one (very important) issue. But a study of Thompson’s whole legislative career shows that he is too anxious to compromise even on core conservative principles, just to get along. This was true on the abortion issue as well as others. We don’t need a Henry Clay ( “The Great Compromiser”) but a Reaganesque candidate.

B.S. Thompson has a 100% pro-life voting record, has an 86 ACU and has been a very consistent conservative. He is in NO WAY anxious to comprimise, in fact there were several votes that went 99-1 against Fred because the legislation violated his Federalist principles.
