Fred Thompson????? For God's sake, why?
Advertisements [?]


What in the world is there about Fred Thompson that makes him so attractive to the GOPers? He was once a lobbyist. Big deal. A lot of people were once lobbyists but that sure does make them into Presidential material.

He was also a one term U.S. Senator. The key words......."one term." He was no big deal as a Senator and never became a two term Senator.

Now, he was also an actor. He was on the TV series Law and Order and a few movies including Hunt For Red October., So what? How does THAT make him presidential?

So, what the hell is the big deal about Fred Thompson? Are the GOPers frothing over his trophy wife? He's got a grouchy face, he mumbles and I cant understand him. He's also bald but since I am too, I wont fault him for that.

And ever since he began to tease the country about running, he has yet to say anything to make the populace sit up and take notice.
