“Fred Thompson — I Like him, but will he even come close to winning N.H, Michigan, South Carolina or Florida? Not likely. Maybe S.C. And what if Thompson continues to be cast as boring and barely awake during speeches and debates by arch conservatives like Fred Barnes and others?”
Barnes may be a registered Republican but certainly not a Conserative.
BTW, there are those who are socially conservative as well as fiscally conservative who have been ripping Fred as being boring and needing to get it in gear.
