Great article about the *only* true conservative running. I like Duncan Hunter, too; but being from Lawrenceburg, TN I have to go with who I know! I agree – Fred is the best candidate for 2008.

Exactly… “They will not violate a moral conviction. They will simply adopt the attitude – God’s will be done, and maintain their conviction.” <- That is me!

As such, I am a Sen. Fred Thompson supporter – otherwise, …

Electing Fred Thompson will do more to lead this country in the right direction politically than any other candidate in either party. Fred is a true American who is doing what he sees is his duty to do. God willing, he will win the presidency and start a whole new day in politics in this country!

Ho hum. How does borrowing money from China and Japan for four more years to stay in Iraq contribute to our defense?

Fred Thompson’s squealing to the crooked Nixon administration while he worked as an investigator for Sam Dash in 1973-4 RUINS Thompson’s chance to draw independent voters.

You could make a better argument for pro-life, small-government, constitutionalist Ron Paul than for former one-term Senator Thompson.

I hope that Fred Thompson gets the nomination, but it is not looking too good right now.

Fred Thompson is marginal in the polls and largely ignored by the media for good reason. He’s narcoleptic. Sadly, McCain will face Hillary, and we will then get the 4 years of Democratic dominance Republican politicians (but not their constituents or the country) deserve. Fortunately, 4 years later, we will also retake both branches of government, as America decides it’s not ready for feminized socialism.

I also looked at Mike, but a deeper look, and I came back to Fred. If it is not Fred in 08, don’t ask me to get excited. If we want to bring the country together, vote for some one else. I’m not interested in bringing congress together, I want a President to lead this country. Not one who lets the media polls tell him where it needs to go, like the dems do. If you check the polls and the pollsters, you’ll find they call the same democrats with every poll. If you want a President with vision, and leadership skills to get things done, vote for Fred Thompson. If not, just vote for any of the others, and watch the media winds blow your hard earned tax dollars to waste.

Hannity has a Guliani/Catholic prejudice. I think O’Reilly does too. That hurts Thompson with the only media group that otherwise would be kind to him.

The rest of the media is glad to keep him on the margins, because they know they cannot beat him on the issues. They want a GOP candidate that they can beat the crap out of with BS. The others all give them that.

Fred lost his ability to join all three factions of the Republican Party when his recanted his positions after his initial interview with Chris Wallace. It is more important for him to be a social liberal than to address judicial decisions regarding domestic policy made since the revision of the ALIMPC in 1955 based on the fraudulent and fallacious research of Evelyn Hooker and Alfred Kinsey.
