Is it true that FDT does not attend church?

Yes. He admitted as much. He attends when visiting his mother, but not otherwise.

One year from TODAY, the American people will get their wish, as Bill and HRC return to the White House. The people just won’t have it any other way. It’s all they know to do to show their opposition to the failed GWB.

While in large part true, it has little to do with the American People, and more to do with a hopelessly corrupted Republican Party.

If the Party had engaged itself to promote Conservatism, the outcome would be much different. Yet the RINOs hold on to the false hope derived from the terms "Where else are they gonna go?" and "Anyone but Hillary"

It will not be set right until the leadership in the RP cedes control to the Conservatives, if there are any left to cede control to...

Careful who you hurl accusations at.... I for one have no intentions of voting for Huckabee. Period. And I am not a doom-sayer, but I predict, regardless of who the remaining Republican candidate is, that the Democrat Candidate has an 85% chance of winning. Between the general disgust with the Republican Party by those independent voters, as well as the Conservative Base, I don't believe any of the "top-tier" candidates can garner enough votes to win the Electoral College.

And I am curious how much longer Thompson will be in. Without a single victory (and how many delegates thus far?), I just don't see his campaign gaining any more traction. He is the last of the candidates that I could vote for on the "R" side.

Personally, I think it is time to "diversify" my assets (specifically speaking of those assets that liberals tend to want to confiscate...). It's also time for everyone to find some sort of tax shelter that is much harder for the government to legally bite into. We are in for at least 4 years of you-know-what. IF in that time, the Republican Party cannot actually get some guts, then I predict they will completely become irrelevant (some would say they are bout there anyway). Now - that all being said - I hope and pray that I am VERY WRONG!

"Thompson is weak on "Strong Defense" because he has no military service."

Just plain dumb. U.S. Grant was one of the worst presidents in our history. Reagan's "military service" consisted of making movies and he was one of our best. Carter was a veteran and a disaster. John McCain served and he's a lunatic.

There's zero correlation between serving in the military and being an effective CiC.

Thompson’s “run-in” with Dobson consisted of Dobson cirulating a nasty email about him.

The same sort of run-in Pearl Harbor had with the Japanese.

RINOs cannot do anything unless Republican primary voters empower them to do so. It’s the GOP primary voters who are uninformed and letting the country down.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

It was actually Tom Tancredo who prevented Hunter from consolidating support, not Fred Thompson. Hunter and Tancredo essentially canceled each other out.

Yep, exactly.

I know that, yet the military in SC went for McCain over Fred by a factor of nearly 2:1 because of his military experience, or so the pundits say (and I believe them to be correct).

[elizabetty]

No. They have a lot in common: evangelism, Fair Tax, trade protection, abortion, No Amnesty pledge, Minute Man project support

You are making an ASSUMPTION based on your deluded belief that Mike Huckabee is even remotely acceptable to Duncan Hunter.

There is no way Duncan Hunter would even vote for Mike Huckabee much less endorse him for POTUS.
