Fred Thompson "Surprise" Announcement today
Fred08.Com ^

Posted on 12/26/2007 7:55:28 AM PST by Onerom99

Rumor circulating on the Fred08 blog that there is going to be a major "surprise" announcement coming this morning.

Perhaps an NRA endorsement or a major political figure?

Like I typed, it was an attempt at H-U-M-O-R. So please stop indicating that I called her a trophy wife. I have respect for her as a successful career woman and have defended her when others have called her a “trophy wife”.

I don't see how anyone could possibly oppose Mitt. No matter what your beliefs are, he's agreed with you at one time or another. :=)

I nominate this for post of the day! Absolute truth.....LOL

Go Fred!!!!!

For the life of me I can't understand how Romney is still in the race. The guy was elected by friggin Massachusetts, the same state that routinely re-elects John Kerry, Ted Kennedy, Barney Frank, Edward Markey, and Bill Delahunt, and has not sent a single Republican to the House in over a decade. Massachusetts elected Deval Patrick as Mitt's successor.

Massachusetts.

Talk about totally unelectable on a national stage.... Whew.

Or maybe he is going to have a major announcement that he will have a major announcement after the first of the year.

I’m not sure we should be building up this announcement into something earth shattering. Sean just said to look for one and I assume it will be something that will please FReadheads. As for the sourpusses here, I’m sure they are boiling hot water to pour on it as we speak. I think Fred supporters are, in general, just more upbeat than many of the others. We are “glass is half full” kind of people.

Let me try this again so maybe it will sink in. I did not say anything about Republicans. I described the Romney folks as 1. not conservatives, 2. confused as to whether they are conservatives or not, 3. they have some other agenda more important than conservatism. The term Free Republican is the same as Freeper...it is someone who belongs to Free Republic not someone registered as a Republican voter. Trying reading the post again so I can move on to other things besides correcting your erroneous interpretation.

For your satisfaction, for how many months is someone new supposed to stay mute before they can opine on matters political in a........political forum about which even long-timers are making similar commentary and are at odds with one another?

I’m no longer indicating you called her a trophy wife. That was my mistake and I’m correcting it again now.

But the porn reference is no better. It’s rude. It’s something Team Willard does.

HAS THE BIG ANNOUNCEMENT BEEN MADE?

Is Freddie in this or out?

Has he lined up ex girlfriends to come to his cause?

Nothing as yet on the national news.

Still waiting....

Merry Christmas!!!!

Romney is going to lose both Iowa ( To Huckabee) and NH to McCain)...Romney's candidacy then collapses..because one year of hard work and tens of millions of his own money couldn't "buy" him a win..The overwhelming majority of his supporters, and campaign staff, will go to Fred..who will win S Carolina easily..

"Yup, Mitt's slicker than goose poop."

I do not want to think about how you know that.

It’s going to be Romney vs. Obama in the National Election.
Take that to the bank.

“The announcement has not been made yet.
It will be made within the next few hours.”

No word yet?

I seriously doubt the announcement will be an endorsement. Those who are assuming one may be let down today.
