Well I didn’t really mean to insult all young people. But we don’t need to put blinders on. Some people vote for shallow reasons.

Also, there was an abortion questionnaire on which Fred T said he’s pro choice during the first trimester.

Oh, the old questionaire slam. That was dismissed how long ago?

I'm surprised that some people are still putting stock into it.

I thought he was going to announce on July 4th. This is really starting to get on my last nerve.

Agreed---you can't win unless you run, Fred.

No I did not see the speech. I’m sure it was great and that the crowd is very intelligent. I just made a passing comment on the general reasons why many young people vote how they vote (if they vote at all). I am sorry if I offended anybody.

“I haven’t got a clue how you can compare Schwarzenkennedy with Mitt Romney.”

~ <> ~

Arnold and Mitt are BIG GOVERNMENT guys ~ the opposite of conservative Tom McClintock, whom you claim to “love”.

McClintock supports FRED, big time.

Like it or not, it’s true ~ Mitt is a Schwartzenegger in McClintock’s clothing.

Why won’t you look at the speech?
It might put your qualms to rest.

“I thought he was going to announce on July 4th. This is really starting to get on my last nerve.”

Since you are a Romney supporter, I have a really hard time believing you want Fred to declare a candidacy. I can imagine you wanting him to go away.

I’m paying attention to Romney and listening to what he says. If he is as good a candidate as you think, he has every chance to win. I say let the best man win.

I’m with Fred. But the whole thing will almost be decided before the primaries ever get to my state. For that reason I look at all the candidates carefully. The Republicans have several good ones. I’m standing with Fred.

Lead, follow, or get out of the way.

I think you should choose the latter.

“tired of having to apologize for the United States of America around the world,” and "tired of people’s perceptions that the country has anything to apologize for.”

BAM!!!!!


Right on. It's about time we had a prominent politician who isn't afraid to say that. Here's hoping he repeats this often during the campaign. The left will call it "arrogance", but the vast majority of Americans will know he's right.

Did I miss something? Did we have a Primary? Did Fred fail to file in time to get his name on the ballot?

...he started a chapter of the group as a young man after reading “Conscience of a Conservative,” by Barry Goldwater.

One of the saddest chapters in American Politics: Like Solomon, Barry's wives turned his heart after other gods.

I’ve said this before but, I’ll say it again:

I think the Clintons can be beaten in a “fair” fight. But, they are masters at lying, cheating and stealing elections. THAT SCARES ME!!!

...at least the base has its bearings back now after having killed the immigration bill.

So true; we needed this victory to get us re-focused.
