” Fred Thompson is no Ronald Reagan.”
though i agree with this statement (and i dont think there ever will be another Ronald Reagan) i still like Fred - he is not just an actor, he was an accomplished attorney and two term Senator.
I am certainly not denigrating any of Fred Thompson’s accomplishments. I just question if they are enough to qualify him for the highest office in the land.
What did he accomplish?
...and two term Senator.
During which most of his energies went towards pushing for McCain/Feingold campaign finance reform. The only reason his name wasn't on the legislation is because three names would be a mouthful. He now says that the thing for which he dedicated his senatorial career was a mistake. That is the closest any politician has come to admit that their political career was a mistake.
