Why this long column on Fred if he's "broke", "lazy" and "just about finished" according to the drive-by media? BTW, he's none of those things....

Fred is none of those. He is going to take South Carolina. We have a week to raise a million for him.

i’ll admit his wife did him a disservice by her o’reilly interview. can they get her some media training? anyway, fred will have a great showing in the debates. he has to make himself more available to the national media. and we need to give more money!

I thought she did fine against a talk show host who has been hostile toward Fred.

Others can listen and make up their own minds.

I never could understand this either - I thought the Fred strategy was to forget about all the other contests until SC rolled around. He’s looking more and more to me like a candidate that is the most “acceptable” to the GOP base and the most “electable” in the general election.

In a nutshell:

BOR- “Fred can’t win because he hasn’t done my show”.

JT- “Yeah, ok Bill and your ego, whatever”.

From what I saw, she performed admirably and he was a rude, obnoxious pig...in both cases, exactly as to be expected.

His wife has to be more media savvy or not be calling in to shows like that.

Fred is not really running for the Presidency, but he is offering himself if people want him.

I saw the interview and all BOR could do is over talk and didn't give her a chance. The "O" is an obnoxious jerk to the core and his ego gets in his way. Most generally he is so uninformed he is pathetic.

Fred sounded awesome on the Glenn Beck show. He does have an occasional senior moment from time to time that I wish he didnt, but who cares how he says it, its what he says I like.

O’Rielly is a pompus liberal windbag. You may have already known that, I just wanted to point it out. ha ha.

I heard that interview. First BOR was his usual...and Jeri had a hard time getting a word in edgewise.
Having said that she held her own and in my opinion did a very good job of it. She got in a couple of pokes to Bill herself.
I saw no disservice.

Not true, HO’Rielly knows a lot about prostitutes and strippers. He must after having them on his show ever week or so.

You are pretty much alone in that assessment.

Thompson, who was in a near third-place

Well, apparently the lying started at the TOP of the article, no need to waste time reading the rest of the lies.

Hey Bill, it was not "near third", Juan McCain got FOURTH in a three winner finish. So, to make it even clearer, Fred beat Juan. Simple as that.

BINGO! When conservatives look at our candidates and their positions(history)the road can only lead to Hunter and Thompson.
