Unfortunately, the beginning of Thompson may mean the end of the real conservative with vision and candor - Mike Huckabee

While we know what the left has to offer, and I''ll leave my commentary at that, we seem to have a nice array of rather intelligent and fun loving and humorous types and Thompson seems to have the ''jnea se qua that just might pull the Republican ticket together. As we get towards, the end of the year, things should start to get interesting. I''m looking forward to his hat being tossed in the ring, finally.

Thompson is one of the best options the USA has to achieve the change and consistant success it strives for. Fred is direct and straightforward and is a far cry from the manipulative liars and scammers that are presently playing games with our heads at this time. Turning the corner to make a real change means being brave and to accept what needs to exist in the present day, not going backwards and foolish. Sometimes change means tough love, not a cheerleader trying to beat the boys or a freshman pretending to be more qualified. It can be a strong mild conservative who knows his foreign affairs and has succeeded in the past.

I just saw Fred Thompson on TV climbing off of Air Force one in the Movie: "In the Line of Fire";
He played a very convincing White House Buffoon.

Hopefully this is not be a peek at things to come.
