He's played a politician on TV and in real life. Now Fred Thompson wants to be president. He and his wife join Larry to talk about the upcoming primary and their personal life.

“FRED hit it out of the park. I was also quite pleased at some of the questions. Jeri was also very articulate and supportive. I bet they do laugh at some of the stupid stories the MSM wish to focus on. However, the MSM has focused on the race they want and it is not what Conservatives want.
I still feel in my hear that FRED will surprise everyone. It sounds to me as though he has been quite busy. More interviews, but no decent coverage. It is up to the PEOPLE, as FRED is the PEOPLES’ candidate.”
Right on! It was a great and Larry King was very nice throughout the interview. I never watch his show unless I hear he is having someone on that interests me, which isn’t very often. I will say that I have not seen Larry act nasty towards anyone during the few shows I have seen. Was glad to see that he also treated Fred and Jeri very well.
I am well adept at time management and sluffing. Should’nt be a problem.
The guy is great, I want to see him win, but if I’m noticing it so will a bunch of other folks. It isn’t complimentary to his run for President.
Are you crazy...It's got to be History Channel or Cops...
Is McLaughlin even still on??...((;O)
People have to know that. High Speed is recommended.
What in the world are you talking about?
That was a GOOD interview. Be responsible, vote for FRed!
Whose voice and mannerism is best so far?
And you’re the self appointed trash talker. No thanks, I’ll do my own research thank you.

Well, Paul talks the crazy, the others are all pretty much normal. I did find Romney was plastic like a slick car salesman.
I like Fred the best with his thoughts and suggested solutions to various issues, but he can’t be stammering while thinking about an answer. Better to have a second of silence than noises.
Shoot! I missed it! I'm glad he did well. Actually, I was thinking we should adopt the "gravitas" term for Fred. I think it suits him well.
I think that a big part of Freds whole early campange problem has been his accent and delivery with a lot of throat clearing and such...but I also think that this is simply who Fred is and that people will figure this out...You cannot change who Fred is... live with it and know that a southern drawl is not a negative.....
Fred can and will win...
It is most likely a mispelling of a common name for parrots. The poster probably accidentally hit the "r" key while typing.
The other possiblity is that it's a clever new FR code to hide our VRWC nefarious plans.
There, that will keep the Dummies twirling around in a frenzy for the entire weekend while they try to prove that this was why the guy not taking his meds took hostages at Hillary's HQ.

“FRED THOMPSON will surprise everyone and the MSM will have egg on their faces. Trust me!”
I especially want to see egg on Campaign Carl’s face. Tee Hee
Some people claim to be christian but then don’t act like it.
You’re old enough to know about good manners, You’re also old enough to have bad eyesight and other assorted problems. You’re old enough to understand decent language.
I do hope you don’t have senile dementia.
Jeri is an asset. No question. She presented herself very well.
I am behind Fred because he is right on the issues, unwavering and unflappable.
It is a very eye opening political season for me. Foxnews and other national conservative organizations are backing RINOs. There is a disturbing trend away from true conservatism, while these organizations (not FNS) maintain the mantle/title of conservatism.
What drew me to conservatism, was the independent open-mindedness of conservatives and the fact my opinions aligned with the movement. That same independent thought has allowed me to see this unhealthy slide toward RINO/Neocon postitions considered conservate.
Fred’s uphill battle is due to issue position difference between his pure bred from of conservatism and RINO/Neocon positions. RINOs lead to nothing but disappointment, frustration and more control over our lives and pocket books. I refuse to support that.
Fred can beat Hillary soundly. He is the right man for the job and I will continue to support him as best I can. He needs to articulate his position at every opportunity. Support and hints of support (Rush) are developing, I’m anxious now for the polls to trend in his favor.
Best.
Barnes, Morris and Krauthammer as well.
He thinks before he speaks and says uhh while doing it. (I think it is meant to keep control of the answer). It is habit and I doubt he will change.
Thanks for answering the question as it was geared to be taken two ways. You took the real road. :^)
“Barnes, Morris and Krauthammer as well.”
Amen, bro.
I’m looking forward to the Fred/Hillary faceoff during the debates. Following the debates, the cleaning crew won’t have to worry about the floor. Fred will have used PIAPS to mop it.
