Thompson needs an ace on Timmuh’s show... he’ probably our only shot for a conservative in 2008.
he’ = he’s
I just watched Thompson’s whole thing on MTP. It’s on early here in NJ due to the NY marathon. I don’t want to say what I thought of it.
“Thompson needs an ace on Timmuh’s show...”
I’ve only got two problems with that statement:
1) I’d expect even-handed treatment of any person to the right of Mao by FatTimmy in the same time frame as a blizzard forecast for Hell, so Thompson would have to bat a thousand just to get a draw out of this.
2) After noting this (stolen wholesale from a previous poster):
“NBC MEET THE PRESS....3,548,000 (-306,000)
CBS FACE THE NATION...2,262,000 (- 50,000)
ABC THIS WEEK.........2,207,000 (-356,000)
FOX NEWS SUNDAY.......1,691,000 (+ 45,000)
Compared to the week prior, Fox is up, and the others are down, way down.
Also, initial ratings for the October 28 cable replays:
FOX NEWS SUNDAY.........748,000 (+117,000)
NBC MEET THE PRESS......228,000 (- 47,000)”
....I’ve really got to wonder if Thompson DID get that ace you’re talking about, there would be anyone but the odd FReeper or DBM junkie to take note of it. Kinda like the old gag about the tree falling in the forest but making no sound because nobody was there to listen.....
All that being said, I’d delight in Thompson walking out of that interview with Timmah’s head in a brown paper bag, and I think he’s just the guy to do it if provoked. (The other person who could is Bush, but he wouldn’t waste the time to deal with a bottomfeeder like Timmah.)
