    Fred Thompson has given up his Presidential hopes

    For the good old American lifestyle: For the money, for the glory, and for the fun... mostly for the money.

    This means he will be campaigning as hard now as he was before this announcement.

    This yet again proves that the Rs are in a losing position.

    They are so out of step with mainstream and they don't even realize it. The economy is going to hell and some want to focus on pro-life, pro-marriage and creation issues.

    He knows how to cut his loses. Good for him.

    Yeah, because we all know that higher taxes, socialism, gun control, and a gay and lesbian agenda are big hits with the American people.

    And Huckabee is running out of money. Those were the two true conservatives in the race.


    McCain, Romney, and Rudy haven't exactly been posterboys for the Reagan movement. Looks like the GOP is taking a more centrist turn.

    Re: Fred Thompson has given up his Presidential hopes

    From what I could tell, the only things Thompson was truly conservative in were

    a) having a stance
    b) having a platform
    c) having an opinion
    d) having an actual campaign

    Other than that he was pretty liberal about things

    He can now go back to his long career as an uber lobbyist and part-time actor.

    I respect a man that has a narrow stance.

    I can see possibly not supporting a Republican nominee...And I never thought that I would say that in my life.

    Huckabees a conservative? I have been one pretty much all my life and let me tell you he is not a conservative. Romney is about as close as we are going to get.

    If the economy continues to teeter as it recently has, Romney becomes a clearer choice. At least he's run a company before!

    McCain and Romney.

    A two horse race.

    None of the others will last.

    I've noticed that Ron Paul's presidential campaign signs are beginning to look more like, well, presidential campaign signs.
    heh.

    Well he's an uber social/religious conservative. He's very conservative according to some. He hasn't been a fiscal conservative.



    His problem is everyone else's problem too. None of the candidates have been able to attract all of the wings that made up the Reagan-Bush coalition.

    agreed. Looks like McCain might get his shot after all.

    Great - no matter who we get to vote for in November - they both support open boarders and amnesty.
