“I have great respect for that bunch, and that bunch has helped get us Supreme Court Justices like Roberts,”
Remember the individual who was brought in to help pull that off.

Just to clarify, you are referring to
George W. Bush, not the guy who shoots political contributors (Cheney)...

The fact that Senator Fred Thompson was such a key role as a mentor to SCOTUS Chief Justice Roberts during the hearings needs to be advertised more and given the visibility it needs.
Those hearings and the whole nomination process was a team effort by a number of conservatives and conservative groups.
Individual efforts such as the ones by Fred Thompson needs to be brought to the forefront.
Obviously, the NRLC has not forgotten it, and I imagine it was a major factor in their decision, along with the relationship that Fred Thompson enjoyed with Ronald Reagan.
Duncan Hunter also had a relationship with Ronald Reagan, but Mitt Romney and Rudy Guiliani cannot claim such a relationship in this campaign...
