I think he would be very Cheney-like. A deep thinker, a true conservative, very articulate with deliberate, measured speech.
look at this map thingie I penned last night
Romney/ Thompson..........
Romney has the north and noth east covered to include Wall Street.............Thompson has the south,south east and south west and NASCAR........
Out west, Romney has Arnold and Thompson has Hollywood
I’m ok with a Thompson vp. But, you’ll forgive me if I stick with my preferred guy RG - at least until the fat lady sings for him.
And unfortunately, like Cheney, Fred would be too old to make a run for President after potentially two 4 year Romney terms.
I like Fred, but I would much prefer the GOP candidate for VP is someone who could pick up the mantle so we're not in the pickle we're in this year - without a standard bearer. Maybe there's a Republican governor out there who, with Romney, could run on a ticket of beltway OUTsiders.
