Reported a couple of days ago that: Huckleberry Hound has less than $650,000 in campaign funds. Which means he is going to go broke quick. He is trying to leverage a win in Iowa but — I think he just doesn’t have the cash to keep on going. Whereas Fred — does. (Around $7 million cash on hand last I saw.)

Fred On H&C…

Fred was on Hannity & Colmes tonight and had a great interview: And Mary Katherine Ham has a few good words for Fred:Fred’s been doing some seriously cool stuff to endear himself to conservatives. First, it was the anti-hand-raising revolution……

O’Reilly Bias Against Fred Thompson Gaining Wider Notice…

It seems Bill O’Reilly’s obvious bias against Fred Thompson is now being noticed by more than just hardcore Thompson supporters. O’Reilly’s latest stunt came late last week when he asked viewers to go to his website and indicate which GOP candidate…

I used to like Bill O, but every time I listen to him I lose more and more respect for him. He is so transparently ratings driven that substance takes a back seat every time. And someone should tell him that seeking out middle ground on controversial issues is not a courageous thing to do. Most issues can be broken down into right and wrong, not necessarily left and right. Seeking middle ground just takes you further away from what the truth.

I quit watching Bill O. after Michelle stopped doing fill-ins for him. I stopped checking in on his website too. And I will not go back to watching him unless he, and “Geraldo” both get down on their knees and do a full grovel in front of Michelle on prime time.

Can anybody explain to me why this is the case? What the hell has Huck said or done that makes him suddenly so appealing to so many?

I just wonder how many dhiminicrats are answering pollsters by saying, “Why, yes. I am a registered Republican.” And then saying they are for this guy. He is one of the weakest Repubs running. An easy take-down by the clinton machine.

The No Spin Zone is new and improved, “The Tabloid Show of The Hour”…let’s see now, we have “body language” … “celeb moment” and other none news episodes like the “t.v. icon” segment…”dhuepoint”…which is an attempt to reduce the BOR’S arrogance, but he can’t resist being himself. The short of it is Mr. Bill’s attitude stinks for most conservative people with any manners. He comes across as arrogant, self-centered and pompous middle of the road squatter. He’s even worse on his radio program, can’t listen to or watch anymore.
I do give him credit for his fighting for the kids and Christmas after that toss a handful of grass in the air see where it lands before commenting.
How about a MM and LI show…maybe they’ll alternate nights and finish the week on friday’s together?

One has to vote against Billary, why not for Fred. He may have the least baggage after all and he sure can act Presidential. He sure will do better job for America than a communist like Hillary/’white trash Willy’ or a muslim/ black racist like Baracko.

Carter was a born-again too and he was a total disaster for not only America but for the world. Hundreds of thousands lie in their graves because he gave Iran to the ayatollah Khomeini. We need a real conservative this time out folks and Fred is the only one running.

Go Fred!

BINGO. It amazes me, it really does. I hear peole describing their IDEAL candidate, and I am thinking as they speak, “that is Thompson”, then they finish by saying they haven’t found their guy yet. Befuddling

Too late? Nah. This stuff is just getting started. And Fred will inherit most of the Huck-heads once the Huckster flames out. Mark my words, the real race will be between Fred and Mitt. How I would LOVE to see that debate… edgehead on December 14, 2007 at 2:38 PM

I really hope you’re right. I’m an evangelical Christian and as conservative as they come. I’m astounded that people of my ilk are jumping on the Huckster’s bandwagon after they’ve been griping for 8 years about Bush’s open borders and his Washington spending spree. All the Huckster will be is 8 more years of Bush; exactly what we DON’T want.

O’Reilly showed his colors by not standing up for Michelle. Too much of a wimp to nail Geraldo. Now this, O’Reilly whines “Fred won’t come on my show, I’ll show him”.
O’Reilly, this makes you look small and petty.

I think its time for the Iowa Thompson organization to start counting hands, and let us know where they stand. Hey, there’s Chuck Norris on TV selling a Total Gym. I think I’ll check who he endorses for president.

Also, you Fredheads in border states (to Iowa) start making your plans to “move” to Iowa to participate in the causus.

Pfaw. Fred’s campaign has gone through a nearly complete overhaul since it started, and he did sort of disappear for a while. Remember the “where’s Fred” stuff that kept popping up week to week and as recently as a few days ago?

Early on in the Fred hype, I was in touch with someone who was working at a very high level on the 1.0 campaign that imploded, and who is no longer on the team — because it imploded and Fred had to bring a bunch of new people on. I’m not sure what your point in calling me out is other than Fred-worship, but what I wrote is basically what happened, condensed to a few concise words.

[...] Bryan Preston at Hot Air: It’s Fred being Fred, talking about his flyswat at the Iowa debate moderator on Wednesday. This is the Fred that we all expected to see come out months ago, the one who chomped on a cigar while he mocked Michael Moore, and then fled from the face of the earth for months while his campaign imploded. Now we’re seeing him, punking the media, goofing on his rivals and being the devilishly entertaining communicator and idea-wonk that we hoped for. The question is, is it too late for Fred’s new moves to matter? [...]

“fled from the face of the earth for months while his campaign imploded”

Bryan, creative writing techniques do not necessarily state fact so much as what the author would persuade the reader to believe.

Has O’Reilly offered ANY explanation about why he left Fred out of that poll…? Did he try to use some lame excuse about him entering the race too late or admit that it’s due to him not subjecting himself to a lot of anal probes, like the one Bill O would like to give him…?
