Those are lovely photos of him with his family but I fear they are photos that are not going to do him any favours.

He is going to be ridiculed as an old man with young wife and children, it emphasized the fact he is divorced and remarried.

IMHO he would do better to keep the children away from the cameras, far from making him appear younger they make him appear older.

Older men with younger children sometimes do appear younger such a John Edwards but the extra 10 years or so with Thompson plus his previous ill health results in him actually appearing older IMHO.

I hope people do not think I knocking or am anti Thompson this is not the case but I am desperate for Hilary to be beaten and I fear that Thompson is not up to that.

They seem to have extended Biden’s stay. After this commercial there won’t be enough time to fit Penn in.

Has Hillary’s lackey cancelled?

You're engaging in the same cheap pot shot tactics the liberals have made famous.

If Fred leaves his family out of his campaign the press will accuse him of being neglectful, uninvested as a father and ashamed of them. They actually help him I believe to show him invested in his life, his future and his kids’ futures.

Divorced and remarried...so what? Many people are and will relate to that. I don’t see that as a problem whatsoever, particularly when the ex-wife has come out publically supporting Fred’s campaign and her family maintains good relationships with him.

He’s already been accused of having a trophy wife and has handled that well IMO.

Fred has stated several times that he’s never felt even one day of sickness from the indolent lymphoma or the treatment. It was discovered upon routine exam, treated successfully and remains in remission. Easily treated again should it become active again. But no symptoms or sickness was ever involved according to what Thompson has repeatedly reported.

Do be extra vigilant and critical when reading reports of the media regarding Fred, snugs. They are scared witless about him.

Seems to me that you mean but I fear hope they are photos that are not going to do him any favours.
