A little over a year ago, the “majority of Freepers” were getting Chris Matthews tingles down their legs for Fred Thompson. That worked out so well...

You make a good point. The two problems with Fred were his very late start in the campaign and the fact that he wasn't as charismatic in person as he appeared in print or film.

That being said, Sarah and Fred have very similar platforms and beliefs. The differences this time is that Sarah is the most charismatic conservative we have and now that she has resigned she can begin building her organization. Sarah Palin is everything good about Thompson plus everything he was not.

I still say that the ONLY problem with Fred was that he wasn't as charismatic in person as he appeared in print or film. He could have been. He is trained to be. He, for whatever reason, didn't want the job. It was his for the taking.

His PAC sends me two or three donation letters a week. It will not get a dime. THAT money goes to SarahPAC.
