All Stars have become all chumps. Thompson will not endorse McCain because it would compromise everything he stands for. There is a difference between standing up for your friend, and standing up for your principles. Fred knows the difference. BTW, Fred has vowed to continue on to Florida. I firmly believe Thompson is in this for the long haul now.
Do you have a link to where Thompson said he will continue to Florida?
Last I heard him say he would have to do good in SC in order to move on.
“When it comes to personal courage and integrity and the courage to do what he thinks is right, regardless of whether or not it’s particularly popular at the moment, John McCain has shown characteristics of leadership like no one else I’ve ever seen,” Thompson said at a press conference.
In 1999... http://www.cnn.com/ALLPOLITICS/stories/1999/08/18/president.2000/thompson.mccain/
But, if he admired McCain’s ‘Maverick’ style in 1999, what has changed from then til now? McCain-Feingold-Thompson clearly isn’t a factor.
I pray you are right!
