Regardless of who wins the Republicans are going to end up with a very competent ticket. The major problem will be a voter base that doesn’t have a clue and hipe from a very liberal MSM. We can only hope the talent and experience wins.

None of the Republican candidates are going to make everybody happy on all their positions. I personally prefer Fred but Rudy or Mitt would do just fine.

IF you are honest with yourself (which I doubt), you will see how a real leader in Mitt! Romney, sounds verses the vacuous empty rhetoric spouted by a lazy, lying, ball-less fake who has to be pushed into a possible announcement to run for president, that we see in fred?.

Really, what is with all this fred? is the savior crap? The guy has nothing except the rhetoric we have been hearing from other conservatives for years. No real plans, no leadership, no initiative, and he has to be lead to the answers the interviewer wants. Mitt! is asked a question and he answers with specifics that are real world and attainable.

Really, you need to re-think your starry eyed support of the lying fake fred?. Really, you do.

Thus speaketh prophecy.

Tennman: I, NOSTRADAMUS do predictiate that stuff will happen at the Hister!

I predict his “announcement” will result in absolutely no upward movement in the polls.

As for August being a “dead month,” I’m not sure that applies any more, in the era of 24/7 information saturation.

Nobody from the South will win in a Reaganesque landslide in 2008.

August is a dead month. Fred will announce right after Labor Day and immediately gain 5 points on everyone. He’ll coast to the nomination and will win the general in a Reaganesque landslide.

Thus speaketh prophecy.

So, Fred? went on an interview with Hannity again…

Shocking.

jdawg on July 27, 2007 at 6:58 PM nailed it with

Yeah, that’s terrible. A conservative republican letting himself being interviewed by a conservative at a pro-military veteran event.

Fred has been to all the Freedom Concerts so far. He’ll likely show at all of them. Hannity, as one of the two main organizers/supporters of the event, will not miss the opportunity to interview him every time for the HJ & C show, which he loves to do from the events, as it gives the cause much needed publicity and support. He’ll probably interview any conservative personality, political or otherwise, who shows up.

One can still be against Fred but hardly for this reason.

No, he isn’t running. fred? is too scared to become a real candidate.

Shocking.

Yeah, that’s terrible. A conservative republican letting himself being interviewed by a conservative at a pro-military veteran event.

What’s next? A democrat being interviewed by CNN?? Please say it ain’t so.

Yeah, what’s wrong with you? Knock it off, willya? ;-}

Need a speech? Fredbot spits one out, hitting every conservative talking point in a continuous stream since 1980. In the Senate, he’d only need a republican voting algorithm.
BKennedy on July 27, 2007 at 5:58 PM

Someone running for the Republican nomination who gives conservative speeches and votes Republican? Gee, what was I doing supporting the guy for the Republican nomination? What was I thinking?

Guess I should support someone who gives non-conservative speeches and votes with the Democrats! Thanks for setting me straight!

BKennedy on July 27, 2007 at 5:58 PM

Whoa there BK.
Fred! is currently the Republican Dark Horse… and acting like it.
I think he’s right to buy as much time as he can before deciding, even though this plays into the anti-Fred! stereotype. What’s a guy to do?
Your caricature is its own reward. I’ve been predicting Rudy for a couple of years now, but if Thompson has the gumption to walk the walk, we’ll see.

Randy

Shocking.

I don’t know why anyone still supports Fredbot. He’s the most obnoxious presidential non-candidate yet. He’s so inexperienced and lazy we could literally replace him with a robot. Need a speech? Fredbot spits one out, hitting every conservative talking point in a continuous stream since 1980. In the Senate, he’d only need a republican voting algorithm. You could blame CFR on a glitch in the system. Same with his hiring, just an error in programming judgement. Now he’s having his maintenance administrator run his campaign.

Fredbot for President: A Cold, Unfeeling, Inexperienced, Innovation-Devoid Candidate programmed to speak 20 year old conservative platitudes through Hannity.

I feel a little better, looks like some of the RINOs are leaving at least. Thanks

I’m sure fred? will try a media stunt like that and I’m sure there are people out there who are still fooled by the facade he has created. But don’t expect Rudy or Mitt! to sit still and do nothing. Mitt! will have won the Iowa straw poll by then and all the candidates will have done another debate. Rudy and Mitt! will still have extensive experience under their belts and fred? will only have his rhetoric and weak senate record. Compare freds? inability to speak off the cuff to the well spoken Rudy and Mitt! and freddie boy will destroyed in the first debate.

The death of one thousand cuts has already begun with fred? and the more we know about him, the more cuts he gets.

(1) Who didn’t vote for Kerry that’s GOING to vote for Hitlery?
(2) Who didn’t vote for Bush that’s GOING to vote for Thompson?

I’d rather see Newt as chief of staff. He’s an idea machine.

Mojave Mark on July 27, 2007 at 4:04 PM

The “idea machine” will be put to great use during the run. The rest will sort itself out, if they win – he’ll probably get to choose what position he wishes to have.

You’re spot-on regarding “idea machine”. Of all, I like his brain the best.

The real question is who is going to be Veep: Newt Gingrich, Michael Steele, or Elisabeth RohmDuncan Hunter?

There fixed that for you… :P

doriangrey on July 27, 2007 at 3:27 PM

There is an easier way to compile all the information on candidates than 30 second sound bites from the debates or biased hit peices fron the MSM. The regional constituency of the individual candidates have had years to ge to know their man. It is imperitive to have the actual records of all Republican candidates compiled on one site. By doing this we override the MSM debate format and the candidates get national exposure. I know there are sites devoted to this already but that is only Senate voting records and such and does not include governors, mayors ect. performance in the real world.

MirCat on July 27, 2007 at 3:42 PM

I’ve picked ‘em too sister, also since Reagan (peace be upon him). I say you’re dead on about Fred. There are two questions that must be answered to determine who’ll win in ’08.

(1) Who didn’t vote for Kerry that’s GOING to vote for Hitlery?
(2) Who didn’t vote for Bush that’s GOING to vote for Thompson?

Poilitics is about moving the margins. There are droves of libs/moderates who will die before voting for Hitlery Clinton. Convincing a Bush alumnist to vote for Thompson is a no-brainer. Convincing a moderate Kerryite to vote for Thompson is very doable. We’ve had 20 years of Bush/Clinton fatigue and America simply won’t put them back in office this decade. I say we win in ’08. Not a huge win, ’cause we always have to spot New York and California to the libs, but a win nonetheless. The current polls a year and a half out are meaningless.

I’d rather see Newt as chief of staff. He’s an idea machine.

- The Cat

It will be in September. Remember what I say; September. He’ll use what the libs and dems say about 9/11 and smack them with it and these things will be the ‘last straw’ that causes ‘Fred for President’. Remember; I just called the when the where and the why. Oh the where, It will be in a speach about 9/11 at a blog get together, like ta Gathering of Eagles type thing.

- The Cat

P.S. Fred will win. I’ve picked em (not voted mind you but picked them) from Reagan’s 2nd term on. So there, you have it.
