As Former Senator and possible Presidential candidate Fred Thompson continues to build momentum towards a 2008 presidential campaign, other candidates are beginning to take note, and prepare. Thompson’s sterling conservative record is hard to dispute so, it seems that his primary opponents are already looking to temper and dilute his record through affiliation.
A friend of mine in DC recently notified me of increased focus from the McCain campaign on Fred Thompson’s 2000 endorsement of John McCain...

Looks like McCain is getting worried about a Thompson run...

Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.
EVERYONE of the candidates is worried about Fred Thompson.
The more the dirt flies - the stronger they make him appear.
To: MUCollegeRepublican1
So, in effect, McCain is seeking to diminish support for Thompson by pointing out that he supported a whack-job in the 2000 race, i.e. McCain.

If Fred is asked about this, he should simply say “I hope John returns the favor”

Doing the DNC’s dirty work. McSlime.
To: MUCollegeRepublican1
How exactly is this considered dirt?
So what he endorsed McCain in the past.
To: MUCollegeRepublican1
McCain: "Don't vote for Fred, because he supported me back in 2000! Support me instead!!"
Nut bar.
