But seriously, Fred for President, I don’t think so.

Sorry Fred, as much as I like you you had your chance and blew it.

We will be electing incumbent Vice President Palin for President.

Sorry Fred, you had your shot.
2012 is VP Palin's if McCain decides not to have a 2nd term.

I think that Jindal, Palin, Thune, DeMintt, Steele, Cantor...these are the new faces of the party.

I love Fred, but he will be a tad old in 2012.

Palin/Jindal 2012

Optimism is a wonderful thing, and Fred Thompson certainly needs it after his performance in this election cycle. That, or hone his acting skills so that he can simulate excitement, or even a pulse.

I'm hoping for a McCain win rather than "Thompson 2012".

Fred's the candidate I've been most enthused about since Ronald Reagan but I fear McCain will win and Fred will never have another chance. Don't get me wrong, I'll be voting for McCain. Why? Because I can't let Obama be president.
