You may be hearing here and there about the 'FredHeads.' It looks like you're going to be hearing a lot more about them in the coming days and weeks. Mary Matalin has started to take notice:
Tim Russert : "Mary Matalin, has Fred Thompson waited too long?"
Mary Matalin : "No, he's not waited too long, and this organization is just building around him. Last night at that event, just in passing, a young person came up to him and said, well, 'We have captains in every county in the state for you. We have volunteers all over the state.' Everywhere we go there are 'FredHeads.'"
(Video clip of Mary here.)
My source in the FredHeads tells me that the FredHeads now have a presence in a majority of states.
In some states, they have operatives in every county, and some are now organizing at the precinct level.
If all this is true, I've never seen anything like this.
They ain't seen nothin' yet!!

Just hide his wife, or else someone take her aside and tell her how to dress.
Yup. The people are tired of being offered midgets when what is needed is giants.
We remember Reagan.
She looked lovely at Saturday’s speech.
Summit County Ohio, standing by.
Any video?

I don't have a problem with how she's dressing...
I’ve got a better suggestion for us Fred supporters:
THE DALTON GANG!
Examples? Pictures? Is she dowdy? Inappropriate? What’s the deal?
I don’t either.
There have been several events where her dress was less than modest. She’s already going more conservative.
i think the very politically savvy Jeri knows quite well how to dress for political events as contrasted with hollywood related events.
I like it. Have a bumper sticker.

Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

This looks pretty bad to me. So does the tight black low cut thing someone else just posted. Mrs. Romney looks classy. This looks like Fred taking his daughter to the prom.
FredHead reporting for duty!
I sure hope so. I’ve yet to see evidence of it.
Hopefully her style will become more tasteful.
What is she, 6 feet tall with those heels on? I know Fred’s 6’6”!!! A giant among men! :-)
I will freely admit this is a HORRIBLE dress. :)
She looks like she’s going for the mermaid look.
Does it make anyone but me very nervous to have Mrs. James Carville at the center of the Thompson campaign?
-personally, I prefer being a member of the Dalton Gang then being called a Fredhead. LOL

Hmmm....I don't recall hearing that Fred had married the Little Mermaid.
MMM, she is at a hollywood event here?
Remember, that’s *conservative* (pardon the pun) for that Hollywood function.
Some of the female attendees have been known to show up in little more than three credit cards and a watch chain.
Not only is Fred the the Man, he’s THE MAN!
Quite the hottie for the misses...
where are the pix of her dressed in evening gowns at political events? it is a fact of life that women dress differently for different types of events. the campaign trail isn’t a hollywood gig and i imagine she knows this quite well.
Hey good for Fred.
I don’t know, but the “it’s ok to look like a trashy ditz in Hollywood” line of argument isn’t working on me. I like Fred. I wish him luck. And I’m no prude. But she looks more like Jenna Bush than Laura Bush, and that’s not a good thing. There are matters of decorum. Hopefully she gets her act together fast.
See my post #31 for the answer. As for where are pics of her looking appropriate, I don’t know. I can’t seem to find any. Go figure.
personally, I prefer being a member of the Dalton Gang then being called a Fredhead. LOL

Me too, it’s our chance to be “gangsta”! Fredhead is just a liiitttlllee too corny for me.
Bob-Dalton Gang Member, packing heat.
You are right. I voted as much for Laura as I did
for GWB. The wife can be a big asset in any election,
butthe Presidency..it is imperative. Now, the Dems.have
a problem with ...Uknowwhoandwhy...Elephants have
select and old memories....JK
Exactly - she’s dressing appropriately for whatever event she’s attending.
Thing is, the Hollywood stuff is so horrifically bad of late - but that’s the current fashion....
Let’s not forget that both Thompson’s ex-wife and ex-girlfriend (no, no extra-marital affairs there) have stated that they’re still on friendly terms with him and are more than willing to campaign for him.
i agree that mitt and wife look like a fine upstanding presidential couple, but that isn’t a reason to vote for him. that being said, were he the nominee, i sure would vote for him.
I do agree - Mitt and his wife could easily win as the conservative movement’s prom king and queen.
That’s all I’m saying. I like Fred. He may end up being my fave. For all our sake, she needs to classy it up a bit. She looks trashy. She needs to get conservative right quick. She can start by keeping the sisters under wraps, if you know what I mean. Maybe a more mature, conservative hairstyle wouldn’t hurt. Try to look serious. This crap matters. She’s a reflection on her man.
and as far as mrs giuliani goes, my objection to her is not so much her style of dress, as it’s her lack of moral fiber.
i have to laugh at how you put that, but i think she will do just as you say.
Well, in her defense, I think she was pregnant in those pictures. A woman’s...um...body changes when pregnant and she may not have been prepared for that. The black dress is actually quite nice.
Those dresses are probably far more modest when she isn’t pregnant.
The Romneys are handsome, but beyond that, they present themselves in a manner appropriate for the roles they seek. Jeri needs to get on it fast. Appearance isn't everything, but it can tell you alot. I like Fred. I want him to be successful. He needs to get his girly straightened out.
Fred, Mitt, whoever...
Let’s just get someone up there who will FIGHT, and BE POLITICAL, dammit, unlike Bush.
Prosecute folks like Berger. Investigate and expose what went wrong before 9/11 - and we know where the fingers point.
And actually call the leftist/democrats on their FAILED POLICIES OF COMMUNISM.
A little bit. Perhaps a lot if/when Hilldog gets the nomination.
-I won’t ask what your objection of a first lady bill clinton....LOL
I really do wish Fred a lot of luck. He seems like a real contender. And I'm far from Miss Manners, but then, if even I can see something wrong, there must be something wrong.
as far as i am concerned, there ain’t gonna be one so we won’t have to worry about it. ; )
That's frightening.
