Thompson would be my last choice. He is too old for one thing. We have two other conservatives to choose from that are much younger. These seats are held for years sometimes. Look at long Feingold occupied it. Why do this again and risk losing to a democrat?

The time has never been better to get a solid conservative in that seat and hold it. Fitzgerald proved his conservative credentials. Thompson has been on the wrong side of the issues more than once namely on Obamacare when he teamed with Tom Daschle to support it. Now he claims he has changed his mind.

No thank you Tommy. You had your chance now let a younger conservative give it a go. If he was thinking of the future and the good of WI he’d drop out of the race considering his age. Just my opinion for what it’s worth.

Is there a likelihood of a Sharon Angle-type of disaster with the other candidates?

I prefer the more conservative candidate generally, but I certainly wish Nevada Republicans had chosen differently last time. Reid should have been beaten.
