The enemies list just keeps getting longer and nobody learns a thing.

Brit Hume and the entire Fox News channel are in the tank for Rooty Toot.

While that may not please you, its also not gonna help get Mitt Boy the nomination.

There’s too far to go for much of anything to have been decided yet.

Things won’t really matter for at least another month.

Today at breakfast, the milk carton I used to pour milk on my cereal had Fred’s picture on it. His campaign may not be dead, but he’s missing in action in Iowa and New Hampshire.

They used the NH poll as their main justification.... 4 percent. Nice job.

About this time in 2003, John Kerry was being written off. Many—like myself—laughed at the loan he took against his house to keep his campaign afloat.

Not only did he get the nomination, he damn near won the White House.

People, get real.

Fred looks too old and tired to get elected president.

The first day Fred went to Iowa, Carl was mocking him for wearing Gucci loafers.

No Fox likes Rudy.

Realistically where do you see Fred winning? As Rudy knows it isn't the national polls that count.

Mitt is running 1st is Iowa, NH, and coming on strong in SC. He also, according to Rasmussen is now in 2nd place in Florida.

Rudy has the Super Tuesday states with the huge delegate counts.

Where is Fred ahead that could add to an early surge needed for a nomination.

The only two I can see an argument for is Mitt and Rudy, but granted a lot could change before that time.

It was a universal bash Fred session. They focused on his NH numbers and completely discounted the fact that he’s still running in second place nationally. They simply wrote him off. I can only assume they don’t think a real conservative has any place in the race. Perhaps the voters will have other ideas.

I was prepared to support Thompson but he has said precious little so far and his communications setup seems to be an afterthought.

HOWEVER - if he would start breathing some fire the press, bored to tears with the Dems and Hillary in particular, would give him many huge free megaphones every night.

The conservatives are waiting for something - anything - that doesn’t sound like another 4 years of Potomac Fever.

Yikes. I just realized that many around here refer to Fred Thompson as just “Fred”. Of course I meant Fred Barnes when I stated how he and Mort Kondracke refer to those of us who against illegal immigration.

Well even Brit, Fred, and Charles can be wrong once in awhile, can’t they? Maybe they’re being practical, but there are other candidates that are not doing too well and you don’t see these fellow downing on them, do you?

Some of us, We’re hardly ever here
The rest of us, we’re born to disappear
How do I stop myself from
Being just a number
How will I hold my head
To keep from going under

Down to the wire
I wanted water but
I’ll walk through the fire
If this is what it takes
To take me even higher
Then I’ll come through
Like I do
When the world keeps
Testing me, testing me,testing me

How did they find me here
What do they want from me
All of these vultures hiding
Right outside my door
I hear them whisperin
They’re tryin to ride it out
They’ve never gone this long
Without a kill before

Down to the wire
I wanted water but
I’ll walk through the fire
If this is what it takes
To take me even higher
Then I’ll come through
Like I do
When the world keeps
Testing me, testing me, testing me

Wheels up
I got to leave this evening
Can’t seem to shake these vultures
Off of my trail
Power is made, by power being taken
So I keep on running
To protect my situation

Down to the wire
I wanted water but
I’ll walk through the fire
If this is what it takes
To take me even higher
Then I’ll come through
Like I do
When the world keeps
Testing me, testing me

Oooooooooooo
Oooooooooooo
Oooooooooooo
Oooooooooooo
Whatcha gonna do about it
Whatcha gonna do about it
Whatcha gonna do about it

Don’t give up give up
Don’t give up give up give up
Don’t give up give up give up

I’m sorry to say that I have to agree with the panel. I don’t think Thompson has the fire in him the way some of the other guys do. Besides, he waited too long to get into the race, imo.

Well, you certainly have brought a fresh perspective to the discussion.

Sorry, this is a little off topic but I still haven’t figured out how to fill out all the spaces to post my own question. Harry Reid was supposed to keep the Senate in session this Thanksgiving recess so that Bush could not make any recess appointments. Does anyone know if the senate convenied today and how many people showed up? Again, sorry for postint my question here... :-)

Or maybe Brit Hume told the truth. Thompson’s campaign has basically been floundering since he announced and the poll numbers make that abundantly clear. Are we now going to start attacking Brit Hume all of a sudden because he said something that people around here don’t want to hear no matter how accurate it may be? Because you didn’t provide any details, there’s no way to know. I’ll be looking for video excerpts or a replay of the report tonight.

The darn truth hurts some of the elitists in here. It' their man or no man. Speak reality of their man and it's diss time.
