When Fred drops out and endorses McQueeg in a couple of weeks, we’ll talk, nancy. Until then, enjoy the fall.
That is liberal thinking.
And the Republican party is already destroyed. I had nothing to do with that.
Thanks to nanny state entitlement thinking, there are liberals and kinda liberals. That's it.
There is no party for small government conservatives anymore.
Fred is still my guy but I was disappointed that he took today off from campaigning and went to Virginia.
He can still have a shot at the nomination is he comes in 1st or 2nd in South Carolina. The race is still wide open.
And what will you do when Hunter does the same? Or when he endorses any of the other RINOs? How will you possible be able to handle it????
He ain’t dropping out.
But if he did, he would withold an endorsement until after a winner is declared. IOTW, he’ll support the GOP nominee
Mitt is bring this up to counter what the Democrats are proposing....an that is real socialized medicine.
Well, if you won’t even consider Mitt’s ideas, then get ready for real socialized medicine, as that is one of the areas the Democrats will win on.
You can have it as private insurance or real socialized medicine as in Canada or England....which do you prefer?
So why are vilifying Fred for something that hasn’t happened, especially when Hunter may have to support a RINO?
Supporting the eventual nominee versus making a boneheaded endorsement (a’la Tancredo) in the primary is a pretty big difference, IMO.
Works for me!
Whatever Mr. Thompson does is irrelevant to your stupid assertion that he should drop out and endorse the ultimate loser, Mr. Hunter.
Although that would prove advantageous to Mr. Hunter in that he could likely raise a few more hundred dollars for his campaign coffers, and maybe use it to get his son elected to his old congressional seat.
“...we’ll talk, nancy.”
Your inability to refrain from name-calling is further evidence of your anger at having backed the ultimate loser. Sadly, it has apparently unmoored you from reason, as well.
Kinda pathetic.

“Whatever Mr. Thompson does is irrelevant to your stupid assertion that he should drop out and endorse the ultimate loser, Mr. Hunter”.
It might be irrelevant to you if Thompson endorsed McCain. It sure as hell isn’t to conservatives.
“It might be irrelevant to you if Thompson endorsed McCain. It sure as hell isn’t to conservatives.”
I know that in your anger (and possible creeping mental instability) at having backed the ultimate loser, it might be starting to become difficult to remain focused on actual reality, but please try to reply to what I actually said.
"Whatever Mr. Thompson does is irrelevant to your stupid assertion that he should drop out and endorse the ultimate loser, Mr. Hunter.”
Read that closely, pissant. You can do it (I think). It’s irrelevant to your stupid assertion.

It is a guarantee, so why set yourself up for disappointment. You will have to choose who best fits with your philosophy among the candidates running. You don’t have any other viable choices that don’t place votes where they don’t belong. The dems want to turn the world upside down, yesterday, why desire the same of the Republican Party when they have a platform that I would bet pretty much conforms to what you desire. That the individual candidates don’t exactly adhere to party platforms, is another issue.
Who is angry, nancy? Like I said, the only folks that should be angry are folks like you that thought Thompson was some conservative savior, and drafted him thinking he was a rock ribbed conservative, only to find out the truth.
I’ve supported Hunter, without reservation, from the time he announced. I still have no reservations, no anger, no 2nd thoughts about supporting the “ultimate loser”.
Now to the sentence at hand: “Whatever Mr. Thompson does is irrelevant to your stupid assertion that he should drop out and endorse the ultimate loser, Mr. Hunter.”
If Fred does not drop out, it is relevant to Hunter’s campaign. It will be another ostensibly conservative candidate taking up oxygen in a crowded field.
If Fred does drop out, it is relevant to Hunter as well. The fewer candidates the better for those remaining, typically.
If Fred drops out and follows my “stupid assertion” and endorses Hunter, it will give Hunter a lift. Even you would admit that. So that is relevant.
If Fred drops out and endorses McCain, it will give McCain a lift, so that is relevant as well. It will also porove him to be the moderate handmaiden I’ve been telling you he is all along.
The only thing that IS irrelevant are your opinions, which you may share with others til the cows come home, but from now on will be ignored by me. Cheers.
“Who is angry, nancy?”
Your vitriol is showing again, pissant.
“Like I said, the only folks that should be angry are folks like you that thought Thompson was some conservative savior, and drafted him thinking he was a rock ribbed conservative, only to find out the truth.”
Well, that would explain why you falsely think I'm angry, in that you’ve smuggled a false premise into your argument. I never thought that Mr. Thompson was other than a moderate conservative. Which is what he is. Go back, if you wish, and check what I’ve posted before.
I sure would have loved it if he’d have been more conservative, but I found his level of conservatism to be acceptable. I still do.
I’ve never thought of Mr. Thompson as some sort of conservative savior, merely a candidate who a) was sufficiently conservative to most Republican factions and who b) could conceivably be elected. Others in the media and politics have commented that no matter how well or poorly Mr. Thompson has done, he IS a candidate who is broadly acceptable to all parts of the party.
And in that he beat Mr. Hunter’s totals in Iowa by about 25 or 30 to 1, he is certainly far more readily electable than the ultimate loser that you back.
“I’ve supported Hunter, without reservation, from the time he announced. I still have no reservations, no anger, no 2nd thoughts about supporting the ‘ultimate loser’.”
Your postings, becoming increasingly erratic, fanatical, fantastical, and insulting toward others, belie your assertion. You really need to be honest with yourself.
“If Fred does not drop out, it is relevant to Hunter’s campaign. It will be another ostensibly conservative candidate taking up oxygen in a crowded field.
“If Fred does drop out, it is relevant to Hunter as well. The fewer candidates the better for those remaining, typically.
“If Fred drops out and follows my 'stupid assertion' and endorses Hunter, it will give Hunter a lift. Even you would admit that. So that is relevant.”
Face it, pissant, Mr. Hunter isn’t going anywhere, with or without Mr. Thompson in the race. It's apparent that that makes you very angry, and you direct your anger toward Mr. Thompson and his supporter, because you think that it's his (and their) fault that your candidate is doing so miserably. But the bottom line is that for all Mr. Thompson's flaws as a candidate (and he has a few), Mr. Hunter is the ultimate loser candidate in the GOP this year. Nice guy, good conservative, really lousy presidential candidate. Stop blaming Mr. Thompson and his supporters for the abject weakness of your own candidate.
At this point, even though I started out as a Hunter supporter, even I wouldn’t vote for him in my state's primary election. Besides being the worst campaigner of the lot, he attracts too many self-righteous kooks, nuts, and pricks. There is some serious flaw in his character that nearly all his supporters are stupid, insane, or evil.
“If Fred drops out and endorses McCain, it will give McCain a lift, so that is relevant as well. It will also porove him to be the moderate handmaiden I’ve been telling you he is all along.”
Myself, although I prefer Mr. Hunter’s POLICIES to Mr. McCain’s, I prefer Mr. McCain’s CHANCES to Mr. Hunter’s.
All along, I’ve said I’d vote for any Republican nominee but Mr. Giuliani and Mr. Romney.
Mr. McCain received 13% of the vote in Iowa without campaigning. Mr. Hunter received approximately 0.4% of the vote after giving it what he could (an admittedly limited effort, as it's hard to run a campaign on hundreds and hundreds of dollars).
Mr. Hunter is not going to hold public office after the first few days of January, 2009.
“The only thing that IS irrelevant are your opinions, which you may share with others til the cows come home, but from now on will be ignored by me. Cheers.”
I’m not the one posting crackpot ideas out of growing anger and possible mental instability.
Good luck to you.

hi
Welcome back. Things will settle down a bit here on FR after Fred drops out. Until then, this type of article will see a less than friendly reception. OF Course, me being a Hunter guy, they don’t appreciate my 2 cents either.
thanks :)
