Everyone better be ready for the media onslaught if Fred is the man against Obama...

The media will do everything to frame Fred as 'old and tired' and Obama and the 'new and vibrant' alternative for change.

Start watching the pics that are 'chosen' to run...

I suspect Fred will rise to the occasion, in a manner similar to Ronald Reagan:

“It was old-friend humor that came to the rescue, of course, when he was on the ropes after a poor showing against Mondale in their first debate in 1984. With the media speculating whether Reagan’s age had made him unfit for office, he put the issue to bed by unleashing, ‘I will not make age an issue of this campaign. I am not going to exploit, for political purposes, my opponent’s youth and inexperience.’ Mondale could only laugh along with the audience.”

That is the reason I would like to see J.C. as VP. He has such an infectious smile!! I also like Steele.
