Breaking news on FOX: Fred Thompson quits
Fox News ^

Posted on 01/22/2008 11:17:25 AM PST by tpanther

Carl Cameron says it'll become offical sometime later this week.

Oh well, we're doomed. Let's hope it'll be minimal damage until 2012.

Or Pat Paulsen. (He can run posthumously, right?)

We are NOT doomed. Only LOSERS are doomed - they’re doomed BECAUSE they’re LOSERS.

LOSERS never win but _WE_ aren’t LOSERS and WE plan to WIN.

Lead follow or get out of the way.

I will vote for whoever I have to vote for in Florida in order to stop McCain. And if he isn’t stopped, it will not be because of me, it will be because of a lot of LOSERS.

He already endorsed him by getting in the campaign to assure some of McCain’s early victories.

You must have some real inside info. Everyone else thinks McCain did well because all primaries have been open so far.

Did any of you listen to the debate last night? If you did you would talk sense instead of nonsense.... they are salivating at the thought of running against McCain and raising our taxes through the roof. Think we are going into a recession now? Wait till you have President Clinton part 2... IF you love your country you will vote your heads not your emotions.

I'm dissapointed too but we must stop the the Stalinist b!tch from coming to power. Do your duty. Support the winner of the primary.

Flame away

Very true. The “Fred Express” ended up having all the excitement of a pump car. A sad day for Conservatives.

Well, crap. Guess I’ll be buying some new guns and more ammo, before the dems or Mitt, or McCain, or Rudy, or Huck, or any of the other RINOs take over and remove the 2nd Amendment.

There...I fixed it for you.

Would any conservative still interested in the 2008 election please reply back to me and tell me which of the remaining candidates is the least shitty?

I'm wondering the same thing myself. For the first time in over 30 years there is not one candidate I can get behind. I think the absolute best we can hope for now is a brokered convention. I know that's what I'll be praying for -- no clear winner from Rudy McRombee and an 1880 repeat convention.

If that don't happen and we're stuck with Rudy McRombee we'd better get ready to say President Hillary or President Obama because the GOP is toast.

We can hope for a Brokered convention. It is possible we could have a nominee that is not even running yet.

Well, Hunter is out, Fred may be going (with good reasons, he could try to fight it out, but his mother’s illness should have precedence, Fred is a decent man afterall).

Rudy...LOL
Huckabee..going broke
McCain...gak...he makes Ron Paul look like Jesse Helms..
Romney....................err....err.....the one thing he has going for him is William F. Buckley endorsed him....

Geez, deep breath...deep breath....we need the Magnificent Bastard Back!

There is no need for this. Failed campaigns hurt. Rubbing it in does not help whoever your candidate it.

Please spare me your sanctimonious crapola.

When Duncan Hunter dropped out, there were all types of venomous comments directed at him. Someone who was head and shoulders more conservative than Thompson.

I liked Fred Thompson and would have voted for him if he's the nominee. But it's not my fault he ran a s--tty campaign. It's not my fault conservatives sat there waiting for him like the Great Pumpkin when they had/have two real conservatives (Hunter and Paul) sitting right in front of them.

There's no way conservatives are going to vote for a flip-flopping scumbag like Romney, so don't even try to go there with this "let's all come together" crap.

If Thompson endorses McInsane he is NOT the candidate I thought he was and we will be out nothing.
