I think that the “insiders” referred to in this column are the establishment liberals, of both parties.

Of course, those people considers we Americans to be outsiders.

"Many Washington insiders tend to dismiss Thompson for a variety of reasons, but it is not clear how well these insiders understand GOP primary voters."

These are the same people that are shocked and become indignant when you tell them rain is made mostly of water...

This morning as I was getting ready to go to work, half asleep, before coffee, I haveFoxNews on the TV, half listening, half watching the scroll at the bottom of the screen,
I saw something which I thought said Ron Paul says government will stage a terrorist attack...

I didn't have time to wait for the next round.
Anyone else see that? Did I mis-read the scroll?

Fred also took pride in STOPPING bad legislation from being enacted in law!!

I will judge my candidates by how many laws they have helped to PREVENT,,,,or how many laws they have helped to take off the books,,,,or how many government employees and agencies they have helped to prevent, reduce or eliminate!!!

Go, Fred, Go!!!

Welcome the club. You just described me.
and I am getting involved at the grassroots level.
You need to seek out the local Republican organizations in your area and tell them about Fred.
Thats what I'm doing.

Check Meet-up for local groups and crash their meetings, get yourself invited to meetings, show up with Thompson stickers, and wear a Thompson shirt.
I recommend the "Fred will kick Hillary's (picture of DNC mascot)" or my favorite golf shirt, "Border Security is National Security--Fred Thompson for Law and Border"
Gets 'em every time.

I searched FoxNews, and did an AltaVista locigical search, didn't come up with anything.

OMFG, is what I thought as it was disappearing into the left side of my TV screen.
I thought "Did I really just see that?"

If you think the Republican Party just is NOT liberal enough--,and isn't moving to the LEFT fast enough--there IS a Republican candidate out there for you.

If you want a more authoritarian, bullying, more intrusive, more controlling, all-powerful, ‘big government knows what is best for us’, 'Big Brother' type of government,,,,,

headed by a pro-abortion, pro-amnesty, pro-litigation, gun-grabbing, gay-rights crusading, condescending, arrogant, and narcissistic LIBERAL New York lawyer who believes in using our tax money for Federally-funded abortions,,,,

who worked in the Bobby Kennedy campaign, voted for George McGovern, as mayor publicly distanced himself from Ronald Reagan , and vocally supported/endorsed a liberal, big-government, socialist democrat like Mario Cuomo over the Republican candidate for governor,,,,

who was so liberal that he wasn’t even invited to the Republican Convention in ’96--after refusing to endorse (until the last minute) the Republican candidate opposing Clinton,,,,

and a Clinton-apologist--whose personal life is an absolute TRAIN WRECK (almost making Bill Clinton look like a decent family man and loving husband--if that is even possible),,,,

a LIBERAL like Rudy JulieAnnie is JUST THE MAN FOR THE JOB!!!!

Liberal Republicans are much more dangerous than liberal democrats,,,,
because liberal Republicans (like JulieAnnie) BLUR THE DISTINCTION between conservatism and liberalism,,,
making LIBERALISM MUCH MORE ACCEPTABLE!!!

Go, Fred, Go!

It remains to be seen whether the dip in support for McCain is the beginning of a trend, a temporary blip, or statistical noise. Rasmussen Reports will release our next update of the Republican race on Monday, July 16 and begin daily tracking at that time.

Audio: U.S. in “great danger” of a staged terror attack or new Gulf of Tonkin, says Ron Paul

It's real.

I agree. Heck, Ronald Reagan didn't formally announce until November (1979).

Go, Fred, Go!!

I don’t know about what you said, but it is impressive that
Fred is so high in the polls considering he hasn’t declared yet. It is a strong sign of a true grassroots drafting him to run. I’ve never seen this before and it amazes me. I don’t know when he will declare but as long as he is making headway like this his judgment seems to be correct.
