Sorry your so thin skinned, doesn’t help your guy.


I love how you DNC newbie trolls have adopted the (justified) responses that your silly posts have generated, even when they are incoherently inapplicable to the post you are replying to.

You can call Fred a geezer all you want, but when that mountain of a man makes your candidate (Obama?) look puny, no one is going to be thinking of him as old or frail, like you’d like.

Happy trolls!

Should Fred Thompson be using amateurs in his campaign? Would that be an effective way to run an organization that is national in scope? You can’t have it both ways, you know?

You’re right, you can’t. I’m glad you see that he is not an outsider. He is establishment through and through.

Oops! Looks like the greasy-haired gov is losing some of that ground:

“Political Wire got an advance look at a new Strategic Vision (R) poll in Iowa that shows... Mitt Romney still leads his rivals but Fred Thompson jumped to a solid second place and is just six points behind...”

Better look out behind ya, Mitt! Fred’s gaining on you, and he hasn’t even been to Iowa yet.

President Jimmy Carter was an “outsider” and look where that got us. Governor Rommney will do a fine job at Commerce or Treasury in the Thompson administration, I’m sure...

Fred’s people don’t ride buses, they ride armored personnel carriers.

And as far as hiring “insiders” goes.. well, who the heck else are you going to hire? If this guy could sell GWB in 2004, he must be fairly good. Even if Kerry
(spit) sucked as a candidate.

And hasn’t had to spend any money... All the buzz created is being furthered along by those supporting Rudy and Mitt. Almost as if he is sucking all the oxygen out of the others.... Where have we seen that in the past?

Fred hasn’t even declared yet, nor has he been to the state or been running millions of dollars in TV ads. It’s over 6 months till the poll, you should wait and see if Mitt can hold his lead before you go and declare him the winner.

Admit it, Fred terrifies you doesn’t he?

Fred has no chance in Iowa. Romney has control on the ground.

he has to hold on to the lead (that's already eroding) for some time yet... and Fred hasn't declared... nor spent a penny in Iowa...

Hey,

I am not reffering to polls. I am referring to ground ops. Something that will be wildly impossible to catch up in. The fact that Fred Supporters use polls to defend their guy, shows how little they really do understand.

Polls are the only thing that counts, only votes matter in the end. You can have a wonderful organization, filled with brilliant people, but if they and their closest friends are the only ones who vote for your candidate, you lose.

You obviously don’t understand the difference between a normal primary and the Iowa caucus. There many, many factors of which a poll 6 months before hand is only a small factor.

But if you insist a poll is all that counts, looks like Romney is kicking butt and taking names. He just went up by 3 more points, and increased his lead.
