Is DA Arthur Branch Known Better Than Fred Thompson?
Fred Thompson : I’m Fred Thompson and I approve this message.
Announcer : The Wall Street Journal says Fred Thompson’s tax cut plan “leads the GOP field.”
A leading economic group calls it a plan “conservatives can rally around.”
And the National Right to Life Committee endorsed him because they know he can win.
Fred Thompson. The clear conservative choice.
NBC’s Law and Order and the movie The Hunt for Red October are a couple of examples of Fred Thompson’s acting resume’. Always likeable characters and a decent performance in the Senate as well as other government service dating back to the Watergate era. It could be most voters are more familiar with DA Arthur Branch than former Senator Fred Thompson.
But the problem with ads is even though they do not lend themselves to in depth presentation perhaps some reference to the information hinted at could be given. We get it Fred. Tax cuts, immigration enforcement, strong military and anti-abortion are the points. The interesting thing is that with the exception of abortion the other issues mentioned are budget items. You can’t cut taxes, increase the military or enforce immigration without reducing revenue or increasing debt. It also requires cooperation from Congress which will not likely have a GOP majority in 2009.
You’re a good guy Fred. Just don’t know if you can ‘getter done’. At this blog you are the 2nd choice after Mitt Romney. Ya, of course, who cares?

Well, I’m just the opposite. Fred first, then Romney. And, I would rather have Hillary than the Huckster. *shudder*
Happy New Year Stanford!
