I'm with you. It wasn't hard to see from my perspective. But the press has had a lot of practice at what they do and they are relentless in repeating the same lie over and over again. Many soak it up like a sponge and that's what the MSM banks on.

Fred is not your average fare. When people actually get unfiltered exposure to him, it's always amazing to watch them act as though they just woke up. Most tell me he is not at all what they expected based on what they had heard about him.
Sure, but Fred hasn't done anything to combat the MSM's attempt to railroad him. He's played into it.

A 17 minute closing argument web video for Iowa? You gotta be %@$!*& kidding me! And he took almost 10 minutes to get around to saying anything in it. Unbelievable. Hillary Clinton's closing argument video is 2 minutes. And she stays focused and direct. She hits all of her points. Fred hardly even touches on his national security credentials in his.

With closing arguments like that, I really wonder how he ever won a court case. He makes me angry because I feel like he's purposely sabotaging his own campaign — or someone inside his campaign is by deliberately feeding him bad advice. Perhaps it's his wife because she doesn't want to have to move to Washington, D.C...

You know a campaign is in trouble when it picks a fight with Fox News.

How lame. Your "Fred supporter" act as you troll for responses on the Fred threads has been poor from the beginning, but as we get closer to the real vote you are losing it.

You are not a supporter. Supporters pick up the phone and call people in Iowa, send money, or at least make it a point to tell others why he should be President.

You’ve never supported him once. Not once. You have never spent time touting his attributes nor defending him in a verbal brawl. I can’t find any evidence that you have ever posted one solidly positive and unabashedly pro Fred message.

Apparently, you get your jollies by throwing cold water on any positive piece of news which relates to Fred Thompson while claiming to be the wind beneath his wings. To each his own entertainment, but if you consider yourself a good actor, don't quit your day job.

You know we’ve had our disagreements but that last statement was a real whopper. The Thompsons live in the DC suburbs right now and Jeri probably lived in or near DC while she was working for the RNC.

Yeah. We get it. You didn't like the video. Perhaps the next FDT thread, you could tell us about it. Like the last 10.

Riiight. Living in the White House would be such a chore after living in McLean.
