Fred Thompson the Trump Card?


With a lot of the R power brokers hinting of breaking camp with folks they have already endorsed upon hearing of a possible Presidential run by Fred Thompson, could he be the Great R Hope? I'm certainly listening, as so far no other R candidates seem electable to me. But thank God neither does Hillary or O'bama.

Nominee

 I agree. As a conservative I would have difficulty voting for any of the present so called front runners. My Republican vote would be more of an "against" Hillary or Obama  instead of a "for" the Republican. I want to hear more from Thompson.

My guess is that Thompson won't run for POTUS

My guess is that Thompson won't run for POTUS.   It's too late for fund-raising in this early starting race.

His popularity among conservatives would, however, strengthen the ticket of any of the current front runners.   How does Romney/Thompson sound?  You heard it here first.

Thompson

Sounds ok. Romney has a way to go to get rid of the flip-flop tag on abortion and gay rights. Sickening that people criticise him for being a mormon. Media already after him about these things. Do not believe that money raising would be a problem for FT.

flip-flopping vs evolving

It's the libs who are trying to tag him with the "flip-flop" label.   John Kerry pandered and that's a flip-flop.  Ronnie Reagan moved from Democrat to Republican and that's evolving.  I'll still watch him, but so far, Romney has shown that he's evolved, not filp-flopped.

Romney/Fred Thompson

Fresh Idea. I agree on your points & believe he would certainly bring big muscle to Romney - A great ticket!
