So now we have Mr. Amnesty himself? We have someone who if he was an opposite of himself and in the other party, he would have been run out years ago.

“It has been a long time since Thompson has made a compelling reason to be in this race.”

Oh, I don’t know, I thought conservatism was a fairly compelling reason.

Another “echo-chamber” piece.

Fred won’t be dropping out, at least not until after super tuesday, his website is still accepting donations. This article is RINO wishful thinking. Fred has plenty of money and Huckster is about to go down in flames. The next few weeks will be verrry interesting.

I’m hoping for a brokered convention. Fred or another surprise candidate could still end up being the nominee

"says GOP political strategist Charlie Gerow, "that if you are not in the game, you are not in the game ... and Fred Thompson was never in the game."

I'm calling bullcrap on this Gegrow guy.

I have yet to see signs, tv ads or hear anyone talk about Fred ‘at all’ in Florida yet. Romney is everywhere and so is Rudy. I wish Rudy were tougher on immigration, he’d get my vote.

[Always Right]

I am trying to figure out the compelling reasons for Hillary, Obama, McCain, Rudy, Romney, and Huckabee. Seems the only reasons offered is they want to be president.

Is it just me or is the MSM making a point of picking our candidates for us?

I posted in mid December he hadn’t made his case. The performance in the primaries where he was making an effort showed this to be true.

Fred fans are projecting a lot on him that just isn’t there.

“The process for running for president has begun so early,” says GOP political strategist Charlie Gerow, “that if you are not in the game, you are not in the game ... and Fred Thompson was never in the game.”

Yep. ‘Walking for President’ was a novel idea thats failed.

Damn shame, but the simple fact is Fred Thompson never really demonstrated he actually wanted the job in the first place.

[Sybeck1]

We need Fred’s conservative leadership. If only in columns and on radio. He needs to be back on Paul Harvey, if he’s not elected. He can steer the movement in writings and commentary if anything.

[McGruff]

What’s the idea behind posting 2 week old speculation Hmmm?

[Tribune7]

It has been a long time since Thompson has made a compelling reason to be in this race

How about he takes votes that would otherwise go to Huck or Romney hence letting McCain be the frontrunner? Fred certainly doesn't seem to be trying to win.

Article: The short story of Fred Thompson started just about a year ago at the conservative love-fest known as the Conservative Political Action Convention, or CPAC.

Nice. I like it when the author makes it easy to see where he's coming from.
