More comments from the Club for Growth speech:
Thompson: “While I was fighting for tax cuts in Congress, others were opposing tax cuts in New York”
No greater friend to American taxpayers than a Thompson administration
McLean, VA - Senator Fred Thompson today delivered the following remarks at the Club for Growth Fall Economic Policy Conference Luncheon:
“There has been no greater friend to the American taxpayer than Fred Thompson, and there will be no greater friend than a Fred Thompson Administration. I ran as a consistent, tax-cutting, small government conservative. I supported all three major tax cuts put before me in the Senate. As Chairman of the Government Affairs Committee, I sought to save the American taxpayer $20 billion in wasteful spending. The Bush tax cuts must be made permanent, and we must cut government spending. I am the only consistent, pro-growth conservative in the race.
“While I was fighting for tax cuts in Congress, others were opposing tax cuts in New York state. Others were claiming not to be raising taxes but were instead raising every state-mandated fee and imposing ‘hidden taxes’ on unsuspecting taxpayers. While others were repudiating Reagan-Bush tax policies, I was fighting for them.”

My God, cant that mans wife dress him better that that? The problem with that pinstripe suit is that it is ill-fitting. FDT has lost a lot of weight (through working out they say), and it seems that his suits don't fit him properly. Of course, that doesn't explain the insufficient contrast between the tie and the shirt. His appearance is not of a Presidential level.

Perhaps his wife doesn’t dress him. My husband would never wear anything I picked out.

Only
78 days until the Iowa Caucuses..... That means the noose is rapidly closing around the campaigns of the bottom feeders. That isn't much time to raise their support levels from the 1% range or garner cash for the push needed to win on Super Tuesday.
This has been a strange primary cycle as no one has really captivated the electorate.

If I’m gonna vote based on how a candidate looks, then I’d vote for Edwards.

You’ve got to be kidding. He looks just fine to me.
I have friends with plenty of old money...ancient blue blazers and old loafers are seen year after year. Fred looks just fine.
