Fred Thompson: it looks like the dream (not my dream, but the dream nonetheless) is getting closer to becoming a reality—more reports are emerging today that he’s raising cash & a campaign team, and he’ll announce his candidacy in July. Not to rain on friends’ parades, but conservatives really should think about the fact that a Fred Thompson presidency wouldn’t exactly be the same as an Arthur Branch presidency. I know my candidate isn’t perfect, and I think it would be premature to be hailing him as another Reagan, but when you put the two side by side, I don’t see any comparison: Mitt Romney is the better man for the job, and easily offers more potential for America’s future.
I’m still conflicted about my vote. I am interested in hearing Thompson on the issues. His past voting record was very conservative, but this is a new day!>>I like Romney.>>Thanks so much the visit and the comment at my place.>>Maggie>Maggie’s Notebook

My pleasure! The only problem with the blogosphere is that there are so many blogs deserving attention! 🙂>>I don’t think Thompson matches the hype so many seem to have, but if he successfully derails Giuliani, that alone would be enough for America to owe him our gratitude.>>I really think it’s a shame that Duncan Hunter isn’t high-profile enough to break into the top tier. But depending on his age, VP Hunter would be in a great position after 8 years in a Romney or Thompson White House….
