This is Rush quote;

There was one candidate who did not display any moderateness or liberalism or have any of his past forays into those areas displayed, and that candidate was Fred Thompson. Now, this is not an endorsement. You know, I don’t endorse during primaries. ~ Rush Limbaugh the word smith

....sure Rush and Mary Matalin who is Fred’s advisor and also a belt way gal, who is married to another belt way guy James Carville.

Rush clearly is not giving due consideration to Fred’s own RINO past, his flip flops, his alliances with the Gang of 14, his weakness on immigration, McCain-Feingold, his failure to support key elements of the GOP platform etc.... also Mary accompanied Rush on the plane to Afghanistan... Hmmm. Very interesting. All very cozy with the Fred people. Too inside the beltway

No wonder Fred feels like a walk in to the primaries he seems like a shoe in soon Rudy past will catch up with him and Rudy Dumpy will have a great fall!

“Rush clearly is not giving due consideration to Fred’s own RINO past”

Please explain with links to facts, as I have to deal with voting records,and a candidate’s own words. Thanks! :)

And too bad, because if there is one thing the electorate HATES about the Republicans, it is the in-the-beltway mentality they have. Fred the Senator is from my state, but I cannot figure out where Fred the Hollywood Guy is coming from now. Nonetheless, the Rush factor is HUGE and may indeed give Thompson something to rally behind.

Drag and paste is clearly your friend, Resty. Want to try that in your own words?

“...or have any of his past forays into those areas displayed...”

Because he is rapidly becoming a non-factor. Calling this an endorsement is BS, as is claiming that Rush said Fred was a true conservative.

I was shocked to read that Fred dated Margaret Carlson. In the tradition of Matalin and Carville, YUCK! Could a real conservative stand listening to her bull for more than five minutes? I have my doubts about Mary Matalin and don’t know why she keeps getting hired for good jobs. She’s an inverse indicator and everyone she works for either loses or plummets in his ratings.
