I hear Fred Thompson doesn’t like to campaign. How convenient of him to live off all this hype and avoid the reality. And, as you say, ‘softball’ interviews. He needs to be seen in action, debating, campaigning but he continues to play these games. He’s not showing leadership and he never was a leader in the Senate and if not for his being an ‘actor’ he would not be on anyone’s list of those we want to LEAD the party and nation. I think this Fred mania resembles George Allen a great deal and I don’t think Fred is a reliable conservative.
Any respect that I might have had for Fred Thompson evaporated last night.
While the ten candidates were on the stage taking tough questions and for the most part giving good answers, Fred was getting the softball treatment on Hannity and Colmes.
I’m sick of the stupid little games that he’s been playing.
If he wants to be president, he needs to man up and start actually campaigning. Then we will see if he is truly presidential material.
