There are pols and then there are Statesmen... BIG DIFFERENCE!

The only statements of intent to enter are rumors started by obscure and faceless people, not connected in any way to Fred.

Timing is everything.
Hmmmmm... looks like Fred and hildeb!tch in S.C.! There is FR political posturing, then there is the reality of the electorate.

Yes, but why let facts interfer with a good rant.
Hunter's inabilibty to "break out" isn't the MSM's fault, it's his.
Hello. Here’s an update several weeks old for you: Spencer Abraham isn’t Thompson’s “campaign manager.”
I think you’re missing the point of what Thompson is doing. By not declaring—and getting ensnarled in these uselessly ridiculous “debates”, Fred can control and frame the messages he wants to get out. The MSM is angry because they can’t filter, subvert or otherwise pervert his message. Most of us understand Thompson is in the race. Only the media seems entranced by the “will he or won’t he” story angle. And the way Thompson is managing himself it’s just about the only thing the MSM thinks it can get a hook into. Oh, and there is something out there about Thompson wearing—gasp—Gucci loafers. I applaud the media for being concerned about the man’s feet, but I would much rather they report what he thinks about the issues important to him. That should be the basis for electing a President of the United States.
I wouldn’t think the equal time rule applies to non-political fictional works.
The rumors could be quelled if he announced a definite date.
Translation: We’re skeered of Fred.
I heard Hannity slip on the radio the other day and mindlessly support Giuliani.
It's more important with some so-called conservatives to be right in New York than it is to be right in conservatism. No way that Hannity could endorse Giuliani in the real world. Giuliani wants to take my hard earned money and spend some of it on killing babies and some more of it on taking my guns.
If it isn't enough that he's just cast pro-lifers and pro-gunners off the boat, he's also told fiscal conservatives that he wants to increase welfare unnecessarily.
It creates buzz and gets MILLIONS of dollars of free advertising... and there are other valid reasons that you don’t understand.

That is what makes this so ridiculous.
And that is exactly the point...if I don't understand there are lots of other, less informed than me, and they certainly don't understand and are, as the article states, "losing patience."
Didn’t you know that?
And the masses think conservatives are intolerant...
Go figure...
Not surprising. Oreilly and Rudy have a lot in common, as both of them do with Dick Morris.
The election is 14 months away, most people don’t pay attention until Sept, which is 12 months away.
No problem.
