" I have to chuckle here at Mr. Thompson's announcement. Good for him, that's fine and all that. My amusement is with the large number of newspaper articles that indicate Thopmson is going to ANNOUNCE his candidacy on 9/6/2007. It seems to be with all the blabby press, that announcement has already been made. So when 9/6 rolls around, what's his announcement going to be? Everyone all ready knows. "

" I bought a Fred Thompson 2008 T-shirt and bumperstickers in May. I'm glad to see that Fred is finally catching up to my need to support a real conservative in the "Reagan mold" for 2008. Once he makes it official, I plan to send him some more money. Now, the race for Nov 2008 can start in earnest!!! (By the way, Ron Paul is an anti-war Libertarian in GOP clothing. He'd do better as an Independent where he could steal a few votes from the Democrat nominee - Hillary.) "

" Great another neo con that doesn't make any sense and is just beating the warmongers drum. How do you fight terrorism; it is a tactic not a defined military. It takes enormous money to police the world, so in a sense, Thompson doesn't understand less government. Only one candidate is worthy of the traits Thompson pretends to have, and that of course is Ron Paul. I love how this article says he is the most consistent “mainstream” conservative….We all know who the real true conservative; but I won’t mention his name again…RP "

" Vote for Ron Paul in '08. If you don't know him then I kindly suggest you look his name up on the internet. He is the only choice who will not lead down further a fascist establishment. Thank you. "

" Wat Tyler, quit talking sense. That is not understood in these postings. "

" Republicans can do a lot worse than Fred Thompson. However, I am concerned with the trend these days of Senators running for President. Given the hisorical record of Senators getting their heads handed to them by governors, on both sides of the aisle, you would think that an ambitious young man or woman with his or her eye on the ultimate prize in politics would concentrate on the proven path to power. Hillary, rather than going for the open Senate seat for New York, would have been better advised to run for governor, create a record of courageous intervention on behalf of her constituents, battle the Washington establish to establish her "street Cred" and come roaring back as a double threat, an outsider who knows the seamy side of Washington. But, no, the lady that promises to turn Gitmo into a Dairy Queen" chose the path more trammeled. "

" He's got my vote. He believes in conservative values, less government, allowing me to keep more of my hard earned money, etc. This conservative understands Federalism and the limits (supposed limits) of the federal government. He might not be on the record as being against Row vs. Wade, but he is on the record stating that it is a states decision, not the federal government! "
