Go Fred go.

A horse is a horse, of course, of course. But have you ever heard of a stalking horse? A stalking horse? Of course, of course. His name is Mister Fred.

If Fred Thompson runs , liberals will go where they belong ,at the back of the bus. From the posts I have been reading on the net. Rudy is no republican.If you want the rest of the country to go wild like new York, just tell Fred not to run and vote for Rudy. If you want conservatives back in power that would tell Nancy the traitor off big time . elect Fred!

He is used to the give and take of Washington politics, knowledge which would make him more effective than President Bush in managing the Democratic attack machine. He has also thrived as a conservative in a Hollywood culture that can be unforgiving toward anyone to the right of Bill Clinton.
Good points, both of them.

In my opinion, he is our only hope. Not just as Republicans but also for our country.

I don't see how we (Republicans) can do any better.

Fred, tease us no more. Declare, and you'll be tied with Giulani within a week, while Romney and McCain fade to oblivion. He's the only one who I'd open my checkbook for right now, and I think he'd unite the party in record time.

And I'm salivating at the thought of seeing him in the general election debates against anyone the Dems put up.

And, best of all, the Dummies are scared to death of his candidacy.

Fred is the only conservative I can think of that actually can beat the combined forces of the MSM and the Demoncrat Party.

The author of this article is quite right in his description of the Dems and their candidates..

They are NOT "serious" people..and they should be no where near the White House during this time in our history..at war, and being threatened from many, many fronts.

From what I've read, Fred Thompson has a rating of 86% fom the ACU during his career in the Senate. Not too shabby if you ask me. I say go for it Fred!

DON'T BE MISLED---WE WILL WIN WITH FRED.

Please, please, please Fred. Run and thus unleash us "Reagan Hounds"!

Fred will draw votes from the vast middle ground, where elections are won or lost. He's a conservative with values and principles -- and he knows how to articulate them. He has the skill set needed to actually WIN

I would be curious to see a (serious) post from someone who isn't for Fred. Not some of the crap that we see here on FR, but a serious analysis, and one with an alternative candidate.

Anyone up to that? Tell us why you dont' support Fred, and who your alternative is and why.

My guess is that no one will make a serious effort that. The point being, this election cycle was made for Fred. The timing is right, no serious/longterm committed conservative has thrown his hat in. And though the GOP field and the party itself is weak, the D's have pretty high negatives.

So, this is perfect timing for Fred.

Honestly, I think the Presidency is his for the taking, if he decides to go for it.

But...again...if someone has a different and intelligent opinion otherwise, I would be curious to know the reasons.
