Fred speaks to Iowa Republicans

Sunday, December 30th, 2007

Long winded, folksy, and lacking excitement. You know, typical Fred Thompson.

Primary Colors: Ron Paul a terrible choice

Sunday, December 30th, 2007

Ron Paul claims to be leading a revolution for liberty with his anti-establishment campaign. But Ron Paul is no freedom fighter. He’s not even a good choice for president. In fact, I think he would be a terrible choice.
The Ron Paul Revolution is based on hatred for government spending, specifically earmarks, and opposition to the […]

Polling numbers mixed: Huckabee, Romney, McCain all have leads…

Sunday, December 30th, 2007

Poll 1
According to a recent Reuters-CSPAN-Zogby poll, former governors Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee are statistically tied atop the lead for the coveted Iowa Caucus, where a win could propel either to the Republican Party nomination. With only six percent saying they were undecdided, Huckabee holds a small one-point lead over Romney with a […]

Candidates’ did you know…

Saturday, December 29th, 2007

Did you know…
Hillary Clinton served as president of Wellesley’s College Republicans her freshman year.
Ron Paul was something of a track star in high school: 9.7 seconds in the 100 yard dash (national high school record at the time was 9.4)
Bill Richardson was heavily scouted by several major league baseball teams, but was never actually drafted.
Barack […]

Fred vs. the Press

Saturday, December 29th, 2007

Maybe instead of debates, there could be a candidate snowball fight. That would be far more entertaining. And Iowa always has snow.

McCain ads

Saturday, December 29th, 2007

My two favorite McCain ads:
“Love America Enough”

“My Christmas Story”

Primary Colors: McCain not trusted

Saturday, December 29th, 2007

I can’t vote for John McCain because I don’t trust John McCain.
John McCain has been an outstanding supporter of the war in Iraq, and I will not contest that McCain’s strategy is succeeding today. McCain has been a strong conservative on issues like earmarks and abortion. And I am grateful for McCain’s sacrifices for this […]

Primary Colors: McCain should serve his country in the White House

Saturday, December 29th, 2007

My choice for president surprised even me. I will be casting my vote for John McCain.
I always knew that John McCain was a good conservative. For many years, he seemed to be the only voice fighting earmarks and wasteful government spending. In a Congress addicted to pork-barrel spending, McCain often stood alone among his colleagues.
John […]

Primary Colors: Not another Big-Government “Conservative”

Saturday, December 29th, 2007

I can’t support Mike Huckabee. As a conservative, I am for a smaller and less intrusive federal government. A government that honors freedom, reduces regulation, lessens the tax burden, stays out of people’s lives. Mke Huckabee’s message fails on all accounts. His messages indicates that the policies he advocates could accurately […]

Huckabee ad

Friday, December 28th, 2007

My favorite Mike Huckabee commercial is his first one.
