Maybe Mike will update his routine to getting a phone call from Mrs. Giuliani. That seems to go over well.

Boy, Ed Rollins is a class act.

Rollins called said Fred Thompson was “as disgrace as a candidate. Fred has been a friend a long time, but has never converted a single vote. No one is taking him seriously.”

Actually, I know of several former Huckabee voters who are now on Fred's side.

Somehow I can’t get beyond the image of Ed there at dinner, knowing he’s being eavesdropped on, and talking up a storm for the eavesdropper’s benefit.

It depends on how comely his dinner partner is.

1992 Presidential Campaign
Rollins was hired in June 1992 as co-manager of Ross Perot’s 1992 presidential campaign. He resigned in July and initially suggested that disagreements with other campaign officials about the nature and timing of an advertising campaign led him to quit. Later, he suggested that Perot was not emotionally suited to be President. Perot initially ended his campaign the day after Rollins resigned, only to resume his campaign after the Democratic National Convention.

Took 42 posts to get to this:

"-Rollins called said Fred Thompson was “as disgrace as a candidate. Fred has been a friend a long time, but has never converted a single vote. No one is taking him seriously.”"

Drudge should have titled the headline, "Rollins trashes Romney, Thompson; Rollins himself may be trashed."

Fred is the real-conservative no-baloney candidate who has laid out his program in detail, and is right on taxes, the global warming hoax, no amnesty, strong military, etc. Romney is a successful accomplished man who has flipped and flopped to try to please every audience of the moment. He ran in 2002 as a gay-rights candidate, and without Governor Mitt voluntarily implementing a court decision, there would today be no gay marriage in Massachusetts. But now Mitt claims he’s against it ... Mitt is my third choice after Fred and Duncan. He could turn out OK, but why take a chance on him when there’s a much better choice on the ballot?

Go Fred!

My My...Holy Huckabee's campaign manager throwing around the "F" bombs...amazing a baptist minister and a graduate of "theology" school would put up with that...

Well, I'm glad this is coming out now...

"F" bombs in Huck's campaign...while Romney took customer "tips" for a decade left by Marriott customers who were "enjoying" "F" movies in Marriott rooms...As the July 10, 2007 Deseret News article pointed out, Romney was paid $25,000 a year + stock for being a decade-long financial benefitter of one of the newer Porn industry venues.

Both are worthy of condemnation; if you compare the two, I think 2 "F" bombs from a campaign mgr. is nothing compared to a decade of lining your bank accounts with $ made from being in bed with the porn industry.

Give us an update when you get back.

The only thing I worry about Fred is what the hell he'd go with his old friend Little Johnny MeCain.

Huck is on par with the Clintons. He needs to shut up or he might begin to make me want Romney when I really don’t.

Ed Rolins the same guy who trashed Rush the other day. I guess that puts Mitt in good company.
