I would vote for Romney in any case, but having Thompson on the ticket with him makes it a bit more palatable. I would also welcome a Romney/Hunter ticket. If Romney chooses Huckabee I would hold my nose but still vote for them. I am very wary of Huckabee’s commitment to conservatism.
If Thompson should be VP and they indeed win, then in 8 years we might be faced with the same situation we have today. A wide open GOP race with no vice president in the running. I suspect that Fred will be too old to run for president then, especially since he has had cancer.
Yer right. Fred would be too old.
Then again I think it’s to our advantage that our candidates are not tied to the Bush Admin. Usually ppl are ready for a change by now. This way we get to run as a welcome change. It just so happens the other party is traitorous. So maybe it would work having another Veep who would not be prez. I think the veep workload might suit fred better.
