Though I try to avoid Bob Beckel ... that doesn’t surprise me. I was young during the Reagan Presidency (born in 1979) ... but from what I have seen and what I have read of both Thompson and Reagan, Fred certainly does remind me of Ron.

His opinions are conservative, sure ... but his means of delivering those opinions in a straightforward, common-sense manner, and connecting with average people while doing it, is very Reaganesque.

GWB is a smart man, and is conservative in most respects (his immigration stance notwithstanding) ... but he is sorely lacking when it comes to SELLING conservatism.

Thompson strikes me as the kind of guy that could get the movement back-on-track. He might just be the guy to reinvigorate conservatism as Reagan did in 1980.
