Well damn, there went the LAST conservative in the race.
Now all that’s left are 4 RINO’s and a surrender monkey.
I wish you well Fred. Hope you mom recovers quickly.
Sorry to see things turn out this way. All the best to your family.

Waaaaahhhhhh!
I’d vote for Romney over McCain or Huckabee, though.
And I’d vote for ANY of them over Clinton or Obama.
Utterly depressing.
Well now I guess I’ll be supporting Romney. I wish I could stay home, but the troops are in harms way. No way am I letting a Rat get command of our brave soldiers.
I was one of those who was saying Fred did not get in too late, and it was a calculated move that would benefit him.
I was wrong. He should have got in early. Missing his first debate for national TV appearance is what killed his chances, in my opinion.
That’s unfortunate.

America has a lot of growing up to do before it can appreciate a candidate like Fred.
He doesn’t play the Drive-By Media’s juvenile games, he doesn’t do things for appearances sake, and he refuses to go along with the public appetite for simplistic, feel-good “solutions” to complicated problems.
I don’t think we’ve heard the last of Fred this election. I think he’s got more to do, either onstage or behind the scenes.
I wish to take the opportunity to express my sympathies at this announcement. You people have expressed your views and your positions with passion and reason, and I am glad for the exchanges.
I firmly believe we are witnessing America’s Darkest Hour. The Communists feel that they have reached critical mass, with their control of academia, the media, the workers, and and can now manipulate the opposition party and the masses to select who their candidates oppose.
And I also believe that the Republican Party has now disavowed any connection with its conservative core. It is simply a vote factory for the express purpose of keeping the party elite in perpetual power.
In the words of Karl Rove, “Of course they’ll vote Republican, where else are they going to go?” I think I know the answer: the conservatives will leave the GOP, either headed for a third party, or for the house.
At this hour, I truly don’t know which way I shall go. The shock of the news is too near. But I think my new tagline says it best.
Thank you, and may God forgive the United States.
Fred ran for President?
Can we trust him?
Tough road ahead, I might be staying home during the general election.
Fred will still get my vote during the primary regardless, McInsane will get win here in Connecticut but not with my vote.
God Bless Fred Thompson & Duncan Hunter!
Fred and his family have been in my prayers. I wish only the best for them.
I’m greatly concerned about the state of this country. The average American is grossly uninformed and has been conditioned to act like sheep. We truly have a severe leadership problem in this country.
Any suggestions on what we can do now?
For me, I will write in his name when it is time for me to vote.
I will not vote for any of the other “so-called” Republicans. They are all nothing to me.
I have no conservative candidate for my vote. I did learn from the Governator not to buy a Rhino and expect him to be an elephant. On most of the conservative issues about which I care, (limited government, local control, individual rights, conservative SCOTUS judges) there is now no conservative to carry the standard.
I am now a noncommitted Republican. If Mitt wants my vote, he will have to work for it. He will have to show me he can carry the conservative standard. Otherwise, I will become a noncommitted independent and look to a third party. Don’t just hand Mitt your vote. Make him court us conservatives.
As for the Huckabee, Gulliani and McCain, they have shown themselves incapable of conservative thought and action. They will NEVER get my vote.
Thank you for the pings for Fred.
Fred Thompson, thank you for running. The United States needed you at the helm. Now ...
THE TERRORISTS ARE JUST WAITING FOR THE LIBERAL/SOCIALISTS TO COME TO
POWER.
IT’S IN OUR POWER TO STOP THE LIBERAL/SOCIALISTS.
VOTE FOR ROMNEY!!!!!!!!!
