Fred Thompson

Did you hear Fred Thompson's speech at the GOP convention?

Where was that Fred Thompson in the primary campaign?!

That was the Fred Thompson that so many expected to see in the primaries. Make no mistake, Thompson was the only real conservative among the major candidates.

So why is Thompson not the nominee of the Republican party? Three reasons:

1. Because this Fred Thompson did not show up early enough or strong enough.

2. Because the 'evangelical vote' was suckered into voting for Huckabee.

3. Because the GOP is not longer really sure it wants to be truly conservative.

I thought Fred Thompson came across like he didn't want to be there in the primaries.

Woody,

Define “Conservative.” Conservative in what way? I think there are very few who truly WANT to be conservative. Most just want to talk the talk.
