Yep, he's running all right! (Fred Thompson, that is.)

You don't put up a website like this if you're not a candidate.

#17  Ima leaning Fred T also and i will use the OS site!

#16  Plus, if OS is rooting for him, that's a definite plus.

#15  I'm still undecided (the primaries are 10 months away, it's too early!) but I like what I'm seeing so far in Fred T.

That said,anybody who gets the One Big Thing right (the war) will be OK with me.

#14  Mike N, I voted for Bush twice, so now I'm trapwise. When they talk like a country boy, and have big money behind them, and have spent more than a fortnight in DC, then I start sniffin' for the exits. I'll vote for any republican that wins the nomination, but I like guys who have a record of standing firm, and with Thompson, we have a McCain/Fiengold approver. Kind of blowin' in the wind.
I remember we had an actor who made all the great speeches, but when it came to live ammunition, he left 241 marines without protection and pulled out to grieve. Not a Teddy Roosevelt moment. This is war, damnit, we don't have time for on-the-job training.

#13  Thanks, OS. I got it bookmarked.

#12  Any particular reason, OS?

(No problem doing it - since I will anyway. Just wonderin')

#11  You can get there from a site that I have a link to:

Citizensforthompson.com

If you're going to drop a few bucks (even a $20 counts), please do it thru my site's link to Fred.

#10  Mike, I think he is the best of the bunch for my views. For the most part, I'm a federalist that likes smaller central government, stronger states rights and a powerful common defense (or attack, whatever is needed).

#9  Excalibur,

If you come down the day of the election, you just need to find a leftist advocacy group and they will show you how you can vote.

#8  Lol! wx.

Seriously though, what's your thoughts on this guy?

#7  Alpha, alpha, bravo, echo, charlie, zulu, tango.
Message is authentic. This is not an act.

#6  So if I cross the border from Canada now how long do I have to hold on to a Z-visa before I can vote for Thompson?

Seriously though, if I was younger I would volunteer for the USN and earn citizenship if it meant I could vote for Thompson. Godspeed.

#5  I signed up and felt this part of the confirmation email was worth sharing.

First, I want to thank you for the encouragement youÂ’ve provided me over the past few months. As IÂ’ve said, for a lot of politicians, encouragement to run from three relatives and an unemployed campaign consultant is considered an unstoppable groundswell. IÂ’ve heard from a lot more people, including you. Now weÂ’re moving forward together.

#4  I think this needs authentication. Is there a wxjames in the house? ;)

#2  Saw him live on Hannity and Colmes. He called the people trying to dig up dirt on his wife and kids Bozos. He gave straight answers to questions and when he didn't have an answer he said so. He really blasted Harry Reid for saying we had lost the War.
