Thompson Withdraws

MortgageMan · Jan 22, 2008

I saw that Fred Thompson is withdrawing. What do you think. I kind of liked the guy although I never gave him much thought because he wasn't one of the fron runners so I thought this would eventually happen. I never listen to his views. What is your opinion of him? Did he have some good ideas?

It was bound to happen. You gotta at least try.

My sentaments exactly Forewall. He never had enough drive. He never really seemed to want it bad enough. He said all the right things just no fire in the belly.

From a conservative point of view, Fred Thompson was probably the best candidate of all who are running, but he WAS the worst campaigner. Who knows, maybe he will make the ticket as V.P.

Fred is a good conservative. I liked his "First build a fence" ideas on illegal immigration.

Maybe Polarbear will spend more time around here now. I think he was working pretty hard on Thompsons campaign. A long time family friend, if I'm not mistaken.

Hillary is the only one who cares, she would have loved a race against him this fall.

Hope Giuliani or McCain get the nomination, they're the only ones with even a slim chance in the general.
