Fred Thompson is endorsed by George P. Bush, nephew of Jorge Jr. and son of Jeb. Some of Bush Jr's advisors will be endorsing Thompson.

As Newt Gingrich says, it's better to find someone who will distance themselves more from Bush Jr. Obviously one reason is because he's very unpopular and also because he's taken some very bad positions.

As Bush's term draws to a close and so long as this Meckie Amnesty Immigration proposal of his is kept from passing both Houses, I believe people will remember him after 9/11, which was unquestionably the most popular time of his presidency. Eventually the Republican candidates as well as the Republican base will, if only Slightly come back in Bush's corner.
Remember the front runners all Support the Iraq War and moreover the "War on terrorism" which will no doubt amount to Bush's legacy !
We'll recall that we haven't had another attack on America since that dreadful day and overall the people want a President who is once again going to make them feel SAFE.

A man who knows of Law & Order should definitely fill the Ticket !!

You support Fred's character from "Law & Order", not Fred the candidate. During his time in the senate, he had a weak record on illegal immigration.

I do agree that Thompson's record is DEPLORABLE on immigration ! However if the Republicans can take the House and the Senate along with the Presidency in '08 with good ol' Fred leading the way... I am certain the Republicans won't ever play with what is quickly becoming the new Third Rail in politics ! Liberals touch it and they FRY !

I'm a Tancredo fan but not exactly sure who I will vote for. There are several decent choices out there now. I am still hoping Newt will join the race. I think Thompson is a decent choice.

hes not bad but looke at a quote from a website which says he "Condemns anti-Muslim bigotry in name of anti-terrorism". (Oct 2001) and also "Voted YES on allowing all necessary force in Kosovo". (May 1999) . and 'Voted YES on enlarging NATO to include Eastern Europe". (May 2002. and"Voted NO on banning affirmative action hiring with federal funds'. (Jul 1995) . and the last one "Voted YES on allowing more foreign workers into the US for farm work. (Jul 1998

There is no doubt the Man has shown to be a moderate as times, especially on the Illegals but as a Contender for the Nomination Thompson will also demonstrate his anti-abortion, anti-gay rights record from which he has never swayed.
Fred is part of the PC crowd but then again name a front-runner in either party who isn't.
Moderation in rhetoric is needed to claim a significant electoral majority...hopefully greater than the victories of BUSH, which were both to close for comfort !
It also gives the Democratic challenger less material to suggest that Thompson is part of their delusional "Right Wing Conspiracy" jargon !

View it this way... Hitlery Saddam has shown adamant support for the Iraq War up until a few months ago. In fact, I remember a time when her and MCCAIN (probably the foremost Supporter of the Iraq War in National Politics) couldn't find reason to disagree on Strategy...yet the Liberal Democrats are still considering her the front-runner for the Nomination.
Likewise, Thompson record of moderation can be viewed as a strength NATIONALLY !

Although I expect the TRUE 'BAMA Hick to emerge after in the inauguration !

Once Fred Thompson officially announces his Candidacy and actually begins to pour money into the Race, Rudy and his ANARCHIST Pals can forget their about there chances and pack up to go back home Dressed in DRAG !!!

I'm for Thompson all the way. He's one of the only true conservatives that is electable. Newt I like, but I don't think he can win.

Fool us once with Bush being a conservative but don't fool us twice saying Thompson is a conservative.

I'll have to go with Thompson if he is the Republican nominee... I'd prefer Hunter but that's not realistic !

"We cannot afford to lose to Hilary Clinton the stakes are too high this time. Michael Bloomberg has already set into motion the first steps to run as an Independent splitting the conservative vote if Fred Thompson gets the nomination instead of Rudy Giuliani. The paper work has already been submitted by Michael Bloomberg for leaving the Republican Party. Michael Bloomberg has more money, influence and support than Ross Perot did and has the power to break the back of the Conservative Vote. THIS WOULD VIRTUALLY GUARANTEE A HILARY VICTORY. Bloomberg is already worth 5.5 billion and wouldn't need to raise a penny for his campaign. This is how the "Clinton Machine" works, they achieve victory through a 3rd party candidate with lots of money who splits the conservative vote. This is precisely how Ross Perot's campaign guaranteed a Clinton Victory!

THE STAKES ARE TOO HIGH, America can not afford to lose to Hilary Clinton. Iran is building nuclear weapons, our borders are being overrun with illegal aliens, the Democrats will socialize medicine, drastically raise taxes, lose in Iraq, implement socialist policy and leave America vulnerable to Al Qaeda who announced their goal of detonating a nuclear weapon on an American City.

Our hearts are with Fred Thompson but our heads must be with Rudy Giuliani if we are going to keep Hilary from winning. The only way Bloomberg is going to stay out of this race is if Rudy gets the Republican Nomination. I implore you with every fiber of my being to join Rudy and defeat Hilary!"

As much as you many disagree with Rudy he is the Republicans best chance at the White House

Stop acting like a snob who refuses to consider anyone except for a southern candidate.

Good moderate positions would include repealing NAFTA and suspending trade with China.

Don't say that. The media doesn't want you to believe that candidates like Hunter have a chance. Don't buy into that. If you like Hunter, support him.

Fred Thompson has got some explaining to do.

Read about the dirtbag Arab he selected as his campaign manager !

Thompson is full of crap and can't be trusted.

To be completely untrustworthy.

Never trust an "actor".

I've made my decision. Any candidate that agrees with the "Roadmap for peace" I won't vote for. Seems I won't be voting this time. I'm tired of chosing the lesser of two evils. Either way, evil is chosen. What's the point? None of these people will listen to us. We don't send them thousands of dollars. We are the outcasts, we are the regular Americans and Israelis. We don't matter. Our Respective Governments don't give a damn about us. This is reality. THEY ARE ALL IN IT FOR MONEY AND POWER. I don't trust any of them any more. I would have walked through a wall of fire for the GOP, I'm tired of getting the shaft, while the idiots and VERMIN LEADERS GET THE GOLD MINE. I have just lost all faith in our leadership. These people will promise you everything, say what you want too hear, and when in office, ignore you. "For the people, by the people." Those days ended many, many years ago.

Fred Thompson is a genuine candidate for the GOP(Republican Party) Nomination. He intends to officially declare his candidacy around Independence Day.

The man is clearly more CONSERVATIVE than the so-called front runners McCain and Guiliani on issues such as ABORTION and GAY rights or more appropriately WRONGS !!!
He's in favor of drilling ANWR oil fields in Alaska to decrease our dependency on foreign Arab sheik oil.

However his immigration record is deplorable with him in favor of Mexico retaking its lands conquered over a 150 years ago. Makes you wonder how proud he is to be an American, an ANGLO-American that is !!

I do however believe his liberal immigration stance isn't too much different from the majority of corrupt presidential candidates already in this race, namely the democratic party TERRORISTS HITLERY SADDAM DEMINTON and IRAQ HUSSEIN OSAMA if you get my drift !!

Anyway check out Thompson's U.S. Senate voting record for yourselves at:

http://www.ontheissues.org/senate/Fred_Thompson.htm

Tell me what you think ...

Yes but he has his failures too. Tancredo is my choise. The named leaders and terrorists are not democratic. That's senseless...

Thompson has said that the highlight of his Senate career was retiring from the Senate. He didn't like it. I think he's only running because he realized his political ally, John McCain has no chance. Also, Howard Baker wants Thompson to run.
