Fred Thompson has no chance of either getting the nomination or beating Hillary if he did.
But him being in the race could split the Republican vote just enough for McCain to be the nominee and Hillary will certainly beat him.
You are right on that one .
Bunch of BS. Fred will throw his hat in if McCain's #s numbers continue to fall (and they will), and he'll then wipe the floor with your RINO pal Rudy. Enjoy the current poll #s while you can.
I disagree.
If Fred Thompson runs it becomes a two man race between Thompson and Giuliani. I honestly believe that the only way McCain will even finish a distant 3rd in primary voting is by Democrats crossing over to vote for him.
Fred Thompson has no intention of running.
You have that one right! Thompson is also a good friend of McCain having been only one of four Senators in 2000 to support McCain. Makes you wonder if he gets in the race, it will be to help McCain. That's where my money is. This is totally orchestrated between Thompson and McCain.
Did I forget to mention Thompson was a big supporter of McCain's CFR bill? His hearings into China were pretty much a sham and Senator Inhofe had to take to the floor of the Senate with his speech on "Theft of Nuclear Secrets" as the investigation was less than thorough. Did I also forget to mention that he voted NO on one article of impeachment against Clinton.
Some people have short memories especially on here so I am reminding people of who Thompson is not the one on TV who he plays a DA!
Yep.
More than I could say for Giuliani.
Interesting opinion. Do you have a basis for that or it is just wishful thinking? I think he would be a fabulous candidate.
