Where’s the picture of the Star Trek doc?

How did I know that Spiff was the poster before I even looked? Are the Mittwits so worried about “Ol’ grandpa Fred” that they have to start all these threads? What are you worried about, spiff?! Just because Mitt’s support is a mile wide and an inch deep?

-—[Thompson’s] campaign strategists told me they are pouring tons of money into Iowa advertising. -—

Now all they need to add is hard work, intelligence, energy, and charm. Good for them!

Don’t ya just love the smell of fear in the wee hours? Bwaahhahaha

He's not dead. Well, he's....he's, ah...probably pining for the fjords.

Mitt will go down the tubes.........and I for one will ream it up (somebody’s nose) : )

[CJ Wolf]

I think he is just gloating at fred’s demise.

[Old Sarge]

“No, no, he’s stunned...”

"I think he is just gloating at fred’s demise."

Second place in the national polls is "demise" now, is it?

[Cobra64]

"He's dead Jim"

Something is wrong with the campaign, that’s for sure. A shame, too.

[GOP_Lady]

Does anyone see a way where he takes the nomination? If so, let us know your thoughts.

[stephenjohnbanker]

May I ask why you are backing Romney?

No sarcasm.

Fred's got himself a pretty, young wife, though.

I’m an ardent Fred supporter and have been on record from last winter saying that I wanted Fred to run and win. But I do not understand why his campaign is apparently so lackadaisical, and why the electorate doesn’t recognize his virtues. He’s not just right on the issues, but he expresses the right position beautifully. Why on earth are they supporting Giuliani? It isn’t just that Rudy is the only candidate they’ve heard of—lots of people watch Law & Order. I’m mystified and disappointed.

Seems to me that the primary campaign is wide open. Let’s let the process work as it was designed to do — which is to let the campaigners make their cases and avoid media-driven months-in-advance knee-jerk politics.

Good One, ROFLOL :)

Me, personally, I like Mr. Thompson and always have. To me, he’s saying the same thing that was said in 1996 (old), and it’s time to get up-to-date and move on and, of course, he’s not motivating and neither is his campaign. I expected more from him and his campaign. It is puzzling.
