Fred Thompson Urged to Make '08 Run
We at the Cacucus Cooler are intersted in reading your comments about former U.S. Senator/actor Fred Thompson running for president. Below is a sample from this article.
"NASHVILLE, Tenn. - One Hollywood actor, Ronald Reagan, served as president for eight years. So why not an actor who plays a district attorney on TV?
Fred Thompson, the character Arthur Branch on NBC's drama 'Law & Order,' is being urged to pursue the GOP nomination by several Tennessee Republicans who also have been trying to drum up support for a candidacy.
Former Senate Majority Leader Howard Baker has been talking to senators. Rep. Zach Wamp has been in touch with colleagues in the House.
'It's something I hope happens,' Wamp said Friday. 'We need that kind of star quality, but most importantly we need his strength and resolve.'"

Too little, too late.
Though it would be fun having two Thompsons in the race and watch the ensuing chaos as the general public tries in vain to sort them out.
Thompson x2???
Ridiculous!!!
The hotline has a clip of Rudy calling for public funding of abortion...this is guy is dead in the water
Republicans should be able to distinguish between the two Thompsons. We're not Democrats.
If Fred gets in, he's my man.
Fred is the best option that I have heard about so far....
