Whre IS Fred Thompson anyway? I rarely see him on TV. Why is he in the background so much? Is he waiting because he thinks it is all to early to be out there?

The media are busy looking at Hillary and Willard.

Part of the answer is he's being frozen out by the media (though he'll be on Meet the Pess today), but part of the answer is he's ignoring current-events opportunities.

Right now, Hillary having dirt on Obama is in the news. Fred should jump on that and remind America of those FBI files. It's the right thing to do. America should not forget those files. And it makes good campaign sense to do it now.

They sent out a search party - they went to the "Law and Order" set, searched the archive reels of "Red October", and came back and told us that Fred is the reincarnation of Rip Van Winkle, he’s been napping while the Liberal Rudy and the I was Blue, now I’m really Red Romney have been pulling ahead.

Is your tv plugged in? He's on This Week (abc) right now.

Talk to the MSM. Fred is out there talking to the only ones who count, the voters.

That’s the last thing the press wants to show.

Actually, IMHO, Fred; thinks that he has the nomination, so why bother to show up.

You won’t see him on TV, because he’s appearing with small groups, not at big flashy gatherings. He’s building his base in a solid fashion, and those strong supporters will the perfect people to talk him up in their states.

Um...he’s on a couple times a week and most weekends. If you don’t see him you’re not looking very hard.

That’s because the MSM has already decided its a race between Rudy and Romney- which is why you see nothing about the other candidates.

Fred can’t get on TV shows unless he is asked. Check his website for videos of his appearances on the campaign trail and a few TV programs. His interview this morning on ABC with Steponutpolis was great. Video of the entire interview will hopefully be available soon. Folks need to see just how great Fred did answering questions strongly and honestly from a Demorat! :)
