As everyone has probably heard, Fred Thompson has thrown in the towel in his bid to be President of the United States. This is a real bummer. Of all the Presidential candidates, I believe Thompson was the most Reaganesque. Sadly, he was never higher in the polls then when he was not officially running.

The good note is that Reagan had to run several times before he was successful and brought this country from the depths to which it had sunk, morale-wise, before his election. Perhaps Thompson will give it another go in four years. We can only hope.

In the meantime, the GOP side of the race is looking pretty bad. Don’t get me wrong, much better than Barak “Don’t hate me because I’m black” Obama, and Hillary “We’re gonna take stuff from you for the greater good” Clinton. So I suppose even Rudy “Hey, you don’t need no steenkin’ guns” Guiliani would be better than either of those louts.

My official prediction is that Hillary will win the nomination, but that is really only good for the GOP and not necessarily good for the country. Now, at the risk of sounding misogynistic, I do believe that Hillary is counting on the female vote, which she won’t get. Women are (and no offense) simply too critical of other women. Plus, having such a devout socialist as the nominee for the Dems, while the far left will love it, mainstream America won’t accept it.
