I would appreciate if you would keep the tone respectful.
The only thing all the critics have to say about Fred Thompson is that he is supposedly "lazy" and has a "trophy" wife. No one has ever challenged him on issues. As far as i am concerned, the "lazy" is a preconception and the "trophy" wife is crap.
People say he is lazy because he doesn't kiss th ...[text shortened]... s.
What you and anyone else should care about are the issues,experience,leadership.

For you or anyone she may be a trophy wife cause she is sexy and we can't have one like her.However again, that is none of our business.
No one should be voting based on whether a candidate has a trophy wife/husband. No one should be voting based on whether a candidate is perceived as lazy.
People need to vote based on their beliefs about the issues, based on each candidate stance on the issues.

I am a Fred Thompson supporter and volunteer.
I believe Fred Thompson will be the nominee.
I will post a new thread about Fred Thompson explaining, giving links and such. I hope some of you will consider donating, volunteering and voting for Senator Thompson.

Wow, not even McCain is worth a damn, in your opinion?
time. I'm not sure I can get past that, I do not have a clue yet who
I like enough to vote for, it is a mixed bag of good and bad for
everyone. I suppose it is really like that every year. On the Dem side
I like Joe Biden he seems level headed compared to the rest, the
guy I think isn't really running for Pres is Bill Richardson he seems to
be running for HC VP position. I thought it funny he spent time
defending her during one debate. I'll more than likely vote for
the Rep but don't have a favorite yet, not sure I will have one either
I'm afraid.

Last I checked, I said "I hope some of you will consider donating, volunteering and voting for Senator Thompson."
I am not asking you for any money.It is each person's choice to decide whether to vote,volunteer or donate.

Originally posted by KellyJayJoseph Biden's is the only campaign I've ever financially supported. I know I'll end up voting for whichever Democrat gets the nomination. Since I live here in Washington State, the Democratic nomination will be largely independent of our primary vote since 35 states have their primaries before ours and since the Democratic party here allocates its elected delgates via caucus, ignoring the actual statewide primary vote. The Republican party here allocates half their delegates based on statewide primary vote, so, in this state, they are more democratic than the actual Democrats.

they stand for or against why bother complaining? The things that
are being pushed as an agenda are the things we really need to
know. What should happen on the next debates are that both the
RNC and the DNC leadership get to give both sides 5 questions
that must be answered by both sets of candidates along with the
questions from the news organizations. The sham CNN tried to pass
off as the people's questions have left me thinking we will never
really get the real questions from the people only those the
producer's like and the producers all have an agenda they push; not
just CNN but Fox, CBS, MSNBC and so on.

voting? It does sort of diminish people’s votes who are later in the
process.
That too seems like it could be something that we could fix if we
really wanted too. For some reason Iowa is first and that is that, which
is great for Iowa but sucks for Washington. They could do a lottery
every presidential debate to see the order of the primaries for the
next presidential election since the primaries unlike the general
election are not done the same day of the year. That would give
states now who do not seem to matter a chance of having an
all important early say in the process.

Originally posted by lovechiefsI think you are misunderstanding me. I was not saying Thompson was lazy. I was not saying that I get my perceptions from the media. I was simply saying that I have a right to form an opinion about a work ethic based on what I see. For example, when Jesse Jackson was running for president he was always late for events for whatever reason. That made an impression on me.

unless you work for the government and you are a high ranking official you won't see much.In fact you will see only what the MSM want you to see.
