I, for one, would not be happy with a “C”. But we will wait and see what further info rattles down the pipe. I don’t consider Thompson to be that bad of a candidate, definitely better than the big 3.

That’s what is really boils down to for Republicans. No issue interest group is going to be totally happy with every stand he takes. The question is will be be palatible enough to each issue interest group so that they could vote, albeit reluctantly, for him. Thus far, he appears to me to be the least offensive and the closest to a candidate I could vote “for” not just vote for him because I’m simply voting against another. He isn’t perfect.
I’m not happy with a C.
I actually know the staff of NumbersUSA and have suggested to a key Numbers staffer the need to assess the credibility of Thompson’s 9/11-related “conversion” experience to the cause of immigration reform; the “C” is based solely on his largely 1990s voting record and does not in any express a lukewarm assessment.
He certainly is much better than McCain or Giuliani.
