Too bad he's not Christian enough for Dobson or he could have been President. /sarcasm

Dobson has kind of said he spoke too hastily.

"Labor Day. Not sure if that's soon enough."
I like Thompson, but Labor Day is simply ridiculous. It raises the question as to why he feels he should be able to spend the rest of the spring and summer relaxing while everyone other candidate is out busting their tail.
He's a good candidate, but I do worry that a lot of what people like about him is his voice and presidential demeanor. That's all well and good, but with that kind of candidate, it's particularly important that the voters get to kick the tires for an extended period of time.
It's between Thompson and Rudy for me, but Fred is going to have to earn my vote and show me that he respects the office of President of the United States enough to work very hard for it. He's not a coronation-type candidate. Not enough of a past record for that.

He ought to run just to get back at Dobson for his stupid position.

Dobson clarified.
I suspect the media was trying to make a preacher look like a twit.

Well that's good. I hadn't heard that yet. He really stuck hi foot in his mouth with that one.

Thompson is exactly what this country needs. Plain spoken common sense with real intelligence backing it up. Rudy will never get my vote.

I am leaning his way. I just know the people I will not support. Rudy and John.

Noticed that Dobson has had to clarify more and more recently?

Dobson seems to be suffering from "Pat Robertson Disease."

Fred's got more than the Leftists scared. He has all the Repub candidates looking over their shoulders too.

Labor Day gives you plenty of time when you have
"...a commanding television presence that makes every other politician in America jealous."
