Thompson Buzz Seems To Fade Before His Campaign Even Starts
Wlady Pleszczynski, editorial director for the conservative American Spectator magazine, says the long, slow rollout of Thompson’s campaign has backfired.
“So far this year he’s been a big tease, and . . . (it has) undermined his implied claims to being a real man. A real man doesn’t have things both ways,” Pleszczynski said.
Sorry, Wlady, but you’re a political journalist selling magazines to the choir - you don’t count, much. Most Americans mostly wish that all you poli-sci jerks would go hide in a salt dome. I’m a conservative, and I conservatively wish that I didn’t have to read fifty gajillion recaps of 10 gajillion debates by five gajillion candidates trying to appeal to 2.5 gajillion voters.
Personally, I’m going to vote for Fred because he waited until 14 months before the election. If someone shows up next August, I’ll vote for them.

Hammer, meet head of nail! I think your assessment also applies to the coastal newspaper hacks as well.

They did this to Reagan, too, many moons ago. Not that Fred is Reagan, exactly. Bigger jowls, for one thing.

You know, I can mention the late start to a bunch of people, and the overwhelming response I get is, “Who’s Fred?” (The Law and Order guy who was in Hunt for Red October.) “Oh, yeah, I like him. Who’s he running against? Isn’t it the 9/11 mayor and that guy who lost to Bush the first time?”
