Fred Thompson throws in the towel (1 Viewer)

Wouldn't be surpised to see him back as McCain's running mate.
 
I doubt he threw it. Probably just lobbed it casually and went back to sleep.

The media and a few people tried to raise a stir about him, but there was just nothing there. He only got attention because he was a celebrity IMO.

Ron Paul on the other hand is all substance and inspires people and gets little to no (positive) coverage at all. He came in second in Nevada, and it went without a whisper.

No way that'll happen. This race is going to be close and I'm betting there won't be a clear winner come convention time. That makes Romney top pick for VP. It would be a good move for him too since he's young and will have a legit shot in 2012 because if McCain wins it all, I don't see him going for more than just four years.

I'm really disappointed in Thompson. He had a lot of promise but really did a half arsed job of running.

There was something there and I actually think it is a good thing that greatest dream in life wasn't to be president. Thompson wasn't inspiring enough, but he was the closest candidate to a "true conservative." He had good ideas, but he lacked the rhetorical skills needed to be elected president.
 
Fred will get some well-deserved naps for his stirring run for the Presidency, which started after Labor Day and gave him about three months to achieve parity with the others. I'd have voted for him, but I would have slept in that morning.
 
Good News.

Not that he had a chance anyway, but he was the last person I wanted elected into the office after these 8 horrible years of bush.
