Well la de da. Dobson was a jerk to Fred, and questioned his faith. Fred responded with a coy “kiss my hindquarters” and Dobson deserved it.
Then he’ll lose.
It was STUPID of Thompson, even if you don’t agree with Dobson. He’s already “iffy” to a significant part of his base, not convinced that he’s “with” them — a part that’s been tricked and screwed often before.
Only thing that it would have cost him to say, “Sure, I’d be happy to talk to James Dobson. He’s done wonderful work for America’s families, and I’m sure we’d find that we share the same core values” — I say, the only thing it would cost him is his PRIDE.
Do you want Dole Campaign II?
That’s what I’m starting to see. No fire in the belly = no White House.
Please, at least think about it.
