The Talk Shows
Sunday, December 30th, 2007
Guests to be interviewed today on major television talk shows:
FOX NEWS SUNDAY (Fox Network): Former Sen. Fred Thompson, R-Tenn.
MEET THE PRESS (NBC): Former Gov. Mike Huckabee, R-Ark., and Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill.
FACE THE NATION (CBS): Former Sen. John Edwards, D-N.C.
THIS WEEK (ABC): Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y., and John McCain, R-Ariz.
LATE EDITION (CNN) : Sens. Chris Dodd, D-Conn., and Joe Biden, D-Del.; former GOP presidential candidate Steve Forbes; Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C.; former Sens. Sam Nunn, D-Ga., Tim Hutchinson, R-Ark., and Jim Talent, R-Mo.; former Defense Secretary William Cohen.
Finally, Brit Hume points out that saying you met Benazir Bhutto is pretty shallow and silly.
This does not change the fact that he did not get on the ballot in Delaware.
PLUS....his people were invited to a Sussex county GOP event that started at 6 pm and they didn’t arrive until 9 pm.
Now I suppose he might think Delaware not worth the bother but the other candidates thought it was.
None of the GOP here in Delaware is happy at all about these turns of events.
I agree. The very last person that should be the president is someone whose entire life has been spent lusting after the job. That's what the Clintons are all about and why they were and will be again such a total disaster, should the unthinkable happen.
For what my opinion is worth....and remember that opinions are like assholes in that everyone has one...I think Fred is going to do waaaaaaay better than anyone imagines.
Just a hunch.
Pay no mind to the clueless you run across now. Let this race come down to the wire and the ladies at the beauty shop are gonna pick Fred.
You don't suppose Steffy received a polite reminder from Team Clinton that he'd better help her. Or else they'd spill some secrets that they surely have which could affect Steffy's career negatively? NNNAAAAAHHHH ! They wouldn't do that !
MTP
Huckabee whines that Romney raised ‘fees’ and didn’t call them taxes in MASS.
[Huckabee raised ‘fees’ in Arkansas and doesn’t acknowledge that those are actually taxes.]
I never get my hopes up based on what I read on any web site.
Easier for you as my impression is you are rather dispassionate and pragmatic about the election ... which is not at all a bad way to be (and a characteristic I find among Romney supporters)
However, I have given my heart (and a few bucks) to Fred and I will be really disappointed if he doesn’t win.
One thing I’ve tried not to do is be nasty about the other two candidates who have a chance and whom I could support, those being Mitt Romney and Rudy.
Obama: I don’t want to force anyone to sign up for government healthcare. I just want to force them to sign up for government healthcare when I say they should.

The drive-by media.
Okay Mr. Smurf....next year we’re gonna hold you to it.
Last year I resolved to go to church more often and quit smoking. Also, as always, to lose weight.
Here at the end of the year, I go to church every week and holy day of obligation. I also...TADA....quit smoking. I STILL do not smoke, thank you, taking a bow.
I DID lose 40 pounds but the remainder of the year was spent trying to keep it off. and I almost did it.
This morning I tried on a pair of size 16 pants which I finally got into after the 40 pounds and yeah, I could get them on but I couldn’t move right, left, up or down. So I shall this year, lose the weight I must have gained plus 25 pounds more. Then I shall be so beautiful the sun shall blush at my very presence.
Heh.
Also, this year, I resolve to be a better person.
I went to a W rally in 2000. Consider yourself fortunate. You only had to wait 3 hours!
Someone has to tell me how Fred did. I don’t get Fox News Sunday here until it comes on at 6pm on FNC.
That is one cool train set closing out the credits on FNS.
Fred has to carefully pick and choose his battles. He doesn’t have Willard’s personal fortune and can’t cut multi-million dallar checks to his own campaign.
So he has to fight in those states where he figures he has a chance like IA and SC. He has to pass on blue states where he doesn’t have much chance anyway like DE and NH.
I thought Fred did quite well. I am tired of the horse race questions that the media are so obsessed with, so my attention tends to wander, but he led off with a great comment about how a quote Wallace read to prove he isn’t really interested in being president was mangled (purposely) and what he said was he didn’t want to be president for its own sake but because he cares about his family and his country.
He came across as steady and mature.
Is that why, virtually without exception, they were all presidents of their high school debate teams?
One thing I like about Fred is that I think he’s just as tired of it as you and I are. He’d much rather talk policy.
Now Fred’s on CNN.
Fred on CNN Late Edition right now!!!
