Always the same reguritated nonsense about "enthusiasm waned", Jeri Thomson, "fundraising hit a wall" and all that rot. Are all reporters lazy?

Working out isn’t going to prevent a relapse of his cancer sorry to say.

I read that Newsweek article that you posted yesterday, for me the real value in the article was the long description of his youth and his pre politics life.

I’m a southerner, I know southerners and their “laid back” style, any one that thinks that Fred Thompson doesn’t have an internal, success drive as big as anyone in the race, is making a mistake.

I suggest that people that are trying to look into the inner man read that article, and they will see that Thompson’s good old boy style, hides a record of a man that seems to get what he wants, no matter what new challenge he decides to take on, and he makes it look like he just fell in to it, ( which is a very typically southern thing, “never let them see you sweat”).

By the time Thompson was lolling around the Iowa State Fair last month, wearing Gucci loafers on a golf cart instead of going on a walkabout like every other candidate...

Mitt Romney Pigs Out at Iowa State Fair

snip

Romney chats amiably with the people in line and then leaves in a golf cart to go to his next event.

Sarah Baxter is a leftist hack from the Times. She often writes drivel on this level. Lies, actually.

Speculation mounted that Thompson, 65 – who has suffered from lymphoma, a form of cancer, which is in remission – was in poor health. He was losing weight, it was noted. But he was in reality turning into a lean campaigning machine, according to friends.

It's hard to tell if he'll be climbing Mt. Everest or retire to his deathbed next month.

I'd like to see all these candidates in a distance race. Or even a sprint. I think Mitt and Ron Paul would beat the pack.

That would be far more interesting than some of these straw polls.

“...on a golf cart instead of going on a walkabout like every other candidate...”

Another lie brought to you by the leftist media and Fred’s GOP opponents.

The truth is, Mitt Romney also availed himself of golf carts in Iowa:

“Romney chats amiably with the people in line and then leaves in a golf cart to go to his next event.”

Here I was going to offer myself as his FReepersonaltrainer and travel with his campaign. His trainer is prob a Hollywood $250 an hour type. I am 69 and in better shape so could be a real role model.

From the article: “He will appear on the Jay Leno Show, where Arnold Schwarzenegger launched his campaign for California governor.”

When will Fred appear on the Jay Leno Show? Thanks!
