I wonder if Rush ever considered that nobody was even interested in exposing Fred's inconsistencies or past statements?

If Fred was leading in the early states and they were worrying about Fred, they may have asked him to explain this for instance:

David Brody pointed out recently that Fred Thompson is going to be hounded on the immigration issue.

Read below from a Washington Times story:

CBN NEWS: Thompson Now Officially Seeking Presidency: Some votes are likely to draw scrutiny, particularly a series of votes in the 1990s against cracking down on illegal aliens. Those include a 1995 vote against limiting services other than emergency care and public education to illegal aliens - he was one of just six senators to oppose that proposal - and a 1996 vote against creating an employer verification system to help businesses filter out illegal aliens who apply for jobs....

But on immigration, Mr. Thompson had several votes where he bucked the pack - and seemed to favor illegal aliens.

The most stark example was his 1995 vote on the welfare overhaul, when he voted to preserve illegal aliens' ability to receive federal benefits. He was one of just six senators to vote that way, joining four other Republicans and one Democrat.

This sounds a little like Huckabee.
