All onboard, the Fred train is pulling away.

Fred Thompson is like an experienced diamond cutter studying the objective, to try to make the determination of the exact point at which the diamond shall be cleaved, to obtain the maximum value.
Diamonds don’t just split into world-class gems by themselves, you know. They are shaped and given their unique character by carefully chipping away the faults and creating the most highly accepted and desired conformation.
We all have a pretty good idea of what Fred would propose to do, were he President, and he is looking for the right path to reach that juncture.

"Mr Reagan, [Judge Clark] said, had “embodied the mission of the party - entrepreneurial growth, limited government and a strong national defence." I have a small disagreement with that statement though I have no doubt of the sentiment:
Ronald Reagan was bigger than the party. Ronald Reagan is the reason many of us are conservatives. Not just conservatism as a political hypothetical but as a reality we all know can exist because of his example. Ronald Reagan made all of us True Believers.
There will never be another Ronald Reagan. Fred Thompson won't be. Nobody will be. But Fred Thompson is our single best hope on the tightrope of electability and conservative principles.

"Clark Judge, a White House speechwriter for Mr Reagan, said: “Fred Thompson, like Ronald Reagan, is a man of tremendous substance. There is a sense in the party that none of the candidates is quite ‘it’.”"Exactly.

He did not endorse him:
“Fred Thompson is a great guy, but I haven’t endorsed anyone in the Republican primary, and don’t intend to.”
