The left is very afraid of him, his attitude, and his ability to control the situation - remember Reagan? Fred is like that.

Go FRedster!

That’s why you are seeing all the frantic attacks on Fred from the media, he’s their greatest fear.

“And yet, Fred Thompson’s plain spokeness on broad themes— smaller government state’s rights— do seem to be resonating with voters. In Iowa, home to the nation’s first caucus, he has moved into second place and more than half who support other republicans say they might switch to Fred Thompson if they knew him better.” (CBS Evening News, 10/9/07).”

Can you imagine if he snuck up and stole Iowa out from under Mitt? Then a strong 2nd or 3rd in New Hampshire?

It’d be OVER.

The left is afraid because they wanted a guaranteed NYC vs NYC race. It was about making NO vote count.

Both NYC candiates are interchangable. Fake scandals and LOTS of “exclusive” acess to give the Mousse abouse MSM face time.

Especially since he’ll almost certainly win South Carolina, Florida, and most or all of the South & border states!

There is a "new plan."

Hildabeast is "displeased."

Does he ride horses? There is that famous Ronald Reagan on horse shot.

At this stage we need to “de-coronate” Guiliani.

LOL

My folks are in thier 80s and are Old School, Depression era babys and life long Dems. Dad was in a union for his entire working life and is hard core Dem. (Don’t ask him how I turned out so bad)

Both Mom and Dad are taking of voting for Fred, as the others are all (explitive deleted) - and don’t bring up Clinton, they will both blow a gasket.

So, ya. Freds is making inroads that the MSM may be missing - on purpose.

I know a few mature WW II men who will not vote for Hillary and are definitly considering a Thompson IF the NYC mayor (thier words) does not win.

My late father (Retired Gunnery Sergeant Commo Chief, USMC-WWII, Korea, Vietnam) was literally saved (along with his family) by First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt in the 1930’s, so you can imagine which party he sided with. However, President Carter disabused him of that notion and he never voted democrat again. Many of the “Reagan democrats” like my parents, weren’t just drawn in by President Reagan, they were repulsed by the democrats after 1972-1980.

Who is the Upper Cumberland Daily and why are people so excited about their opinion? I’ve never heard of it. ??

I believe the term used was

Driven into the arms of the Republiccans.

And ya, the folks won’t trust a pol from NY - ever. They are both convinced the NY-NJ-Maryland Triangle of Corruption (ya, I know, I can read a map) puts out the worst pols seen - ever.

Truman, OTOH, is held to have been the best Prez - ever.

It looks like they are a small daily in Tennessee that did a compilation of reviews from the MSM and blogosphere on Fred’s performance in the debate last week.
