Republicans waited most of a year for their God-Sent candidate Fred Thompson to enter the fray. To the GOP’s disappointment Thompson turned out not to be Ronald Reagan incarnate after all. Other than the superficial aspects of being a tall grade B actor, The Tennessee Toad has in just his first week on the stump when questioned off script managed to show little grasp of the issues and even less grasp of the English Language. Thompson failed at defining himself as The Gipper but did do a bang up job of presenting himself as an old and uglier version of a clueless George W. Bush, previously thought impossible. A winning combination for the Republican Base to be sure, but very little chance of getting either the nomination or winning the general election.
We noticed a serious proof of the Fred Fizzle this week when the newest GOP candidate was stiffed on Fox News Sunday, the entire hour passed without a mention of him. The Fox News Kiss of Death.
This of course leaves us Rudi! Rudi! Rudi! as the GOP nominee. And with Gullianni’s only claim to fame that he will shoot, kill, bomb, invade, execute and torture more people than all the rest of the candidates put together, he could very well pull the White House in for a dejected Republican Party. I know just with those issues alone he would get 70% of the vote here in Dumbass, Texas.
