Fred is the only one who can hold the Reagan coalition together. It requires all three principles. Social, Economic, Foreign Affairs (e.g. Strong National Defense).
None of the other top tier candidates can claim that without performing a flip flop.
This needs to be sent to the evangelicals who are currently favoring the Huckster.
That is exactly right. What is telling is how little the other candidates can speak to the principles of the founding fathers. Fred Thompson is still the best man to unite them all. He is the Fred Element. He still has very high positives throughout the nation so people aren’t voting against him because they don’t like him they are voting for the others because the media has told them that Fred is not viable. Right now he couldn’t be more viable going into South Carolina.
