Let me repeat: he SOUND DANGEROUS. I heard his denial today of knowing what was printed in the racist newsletter that had his name on it. I heard him tonight ranting about people wanting to bomb Iran for a slight infraction before Brit Hume pointed out to him that no one had suggested a stronger response than the one that occurred. I heard him diminish the importance of the U.S. relationship with Israel with regard to national security and express a profound misunderstanding of the Arab world’s perspective. IS THAT AD HOMINEM?

He’s after Huck’s VOTERS.

And he did mention he didn’t like McCain’s amnesty plan.

Funny... All of a sudden, Luntz is a savior. hahaha.

In the past, Luntz wouldn't even mention Fred's name. Tonight, Fred was overwhelming and Luntz couldn't avoid it.

Hunter was culled because as a Presidential candidate he did not measure up. He did not have a following adequate to continue in the big time.

Tonite was the big time

Fred could’ve really helped himself months ago if he’d just used a little more finesse in dealing with evangelicals. I hope he can pull it out. It’s great that Huck’s a Christian but he’s also a RINO and an open borders guy.

“It’s difficult because there are no Thomas Jeffersons in Iraq any more, my friend. Saddam Hussien killed them all.”


Great line from McCain.

Immigration: McCain: the American people have no trust in the .gov re: immigration

And whose fault is that, McCain? hmmmmmmmmm? I called a whole lot of people in Washington to stop your little plans with Mel Martinez and the dems and the prez.

"Legal hispanics want the borders closed. Illegal immigration is hurting them!"

If you know of any, they have their own special feeling of insult and pique after hiring a lawyer to run paperwork around for them for residency and citizenship. To see illegal aliens running around here?

Fred’s style is his own, but it has a Reaganesque flair. I loved it!

Like I said. He is president of testostrone nation. I'd love to see him up against Hillary in the fall.

FOX’s interactive poll is text (from cell phone) voting only. Again.

I agree...but think about what would be worse. Huckabee? McCain? WOW...my heart just won’t let me go there. Well, shucks, I guess I’m headed to Fred08 and make one more donation. I’m trying to stay within a budget...but my blood just boils when FoxNews gave Ron Paul more airtime than FRED! I’m not the only one who noticed!!!

FRED THOMPSON - NATIONAL SECURITY EXPERIENCE (I’ll protect the American people and American values, whatever it takes to stop the Islamic-Fascists including water-boarding!) - 2ND AMENDMENT ADVOCATE (“Individual” rights to protect their homes and property!)

INCREASE THE MILITARY’S STRENGTH AND SIZE (Diplomacy through Strength and verification!)

SECURE AND SEAL THE BORDERS (Don’t give sanctuary anywhere to illegal’s; don’t employ illegal’s; don’t rent to illegal’s; don’t extend credit to illegal’s; don’t give illegal’s rights they have no right to; report all crimes committed by illegal’s to ICE and immediately deport those illegal’s who have already committed crimes against America!) LAW AND ORDER (Enforcement of our current laws regarding illegal immigration!) – DENY FEDERAL DOLLARS TO SANCTUARY CITIES (Enough is enough!)

CONSERVATIVE JUSTICES FOR SUPREMES (Great progress has been made on the Supreme Court in Bush’s term. FRED was asked by President Bush to spirit Justice Roberts through the confirmation process. The next President will probably have the opportunity to seat two additional Justices. This is huge folks. FRED will nominate Justices who will interpret the Constitution, not create rights that simply do not exist and legislate from the bench!) – PRO-LIFE ADVOCATE (will strive to nominate superior Justices with the eventual goal of overturning Roe vs Wade)

THOMPSON PLAN TO REDUCE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT SPENDING (Check out his detailed plan to reduce Federal spending!)

SOCIAL SECURITY REFORMER (Social Security is an entitlement program that will soon overtake the budget. The program can’t sustain itself and will bankrupt future generations; FRED has detailed proposals to save Social Security and provide the added benefit of private savings accounts for younger workers!)

DEFEAT ANY DEMOCRAT OR RINO (Close your eyes and imagine the first debate between FRED THOMPSON and ANY liberal DemocRAT they put up?)

TAX SIMPLIFICATION (Reform and perhaps eliminate the IRS with a variety of choice for the tax payer!)

EDUCATION (Return education to the States. It is that simple. The NEA is the greatest enemy of our educational system!)

WON’T PUT UP WITH TRUTH MANIPULATION FROM THE DB-MSM (including stupid questions by liberal moderators, and “purchased” political pundits)

FRED THOMPSON IS THE “WE THE PEOPLE” CANDIDATE (We the People asked him to set aside his personal life and step up one more time for his Country…and he stepped up!)

THIRD IN IOWA, SECOND IN WYOMING (MSM still calling it a tie with McCain’s name in the lead…FoxNews won’t even mention his name if they can find a way to avoid it!)

TOTAL DELIGATES: 6 “FRED” ain’t DEAD, enough said!

WINNER OF SOUTH CAROLINA JANUARY 10, 2008 DEBATE – HANDS DOWN!!! (In lieu of the airtime FoxNews chose to give him…or not give him as the case may be. WE THE PEOPLE notice garbage like that!)

ARE YOU WATCHING MICHIGAN? IT’S NOT TOO LATE TO JUMP ON THE FRED BANDWAGON...YALL ARE ALL WELCOME! SHOW THE DB MSM JUST HOW WRONG THEY HAVE BEEN TO KEEP FRED FROM THE AMERICAN PEOPLE DURING THE CRITICAL ELECTION!!!

IT’S NOT TOO LATE FOR WE THE PEOPLE TO SPEAK OUT!

I wasn’t paying too close attention to the debate. Why did you rank Romney above Thompson? Most here were desperate to see Thompson do well so I take their perception with a grain of salt.

I hope they show the chart when he spoke on immigration. I bet it went off the chart.

feel free to prove me wrong

You're right, wardaddy.

Big Hispanic Vote Expected in New Mexico

From the article: "As the fiesta makes clear, "New Mexico is different from other states," Wertheimer says. "More than 42 percent of the state's population is Hispanic... Hispanics are embedded in the state's power structure. They represent more than a third of the vote in each of New Mexico's congressional districts -- almost all registered Democrats"
