If you listen to the conservative pundits, it would seem that way. For months now, none of them have seemed to settle on a Republican candidate. They like Romney but he’s been wishy washy on social issues, Huckabee is good but his record appears liberal, and others like McCain and Giuliani have their individual issues with conservative voters.
Just on Thursday, Shaun Daily asked me on his podcast why I thought Fred Thompson had not caught on with conservatives. I said that I couldn’t actually explain it other than the fact that until now, he had seemed distant and perhaps turned a bunch of them off worried that he didn’t have what it took to go all the way.
I say all this to setup this clip from Hot Air of conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh all but endorsing Thompson:
That’s a major boon to Fred who, up until South Carolina, was looking at dire straights in terms of cash and the chance to pull off a victory.
I think we’ll see if the polls reflect any bounce in the next couple days but having Limbaugh praise him so highly can only help him against the other candidates who’s records on conservative issues don’t seem nearly as strong.

Thought you guys would get a laugh out of this. Reality star and former congressional candidate Raj Bhakta’s quest to find missing GOP candidate Fred Thompson on the campaign trail. He has a laugh with Tucker Carlson, gets blown off by Sam Donaldson, and tries to file a missing person report with the police. I like Fred but I got a kick out of it.

Fred has the message, the morals, the honor that we Americans need in the White House. We trust him. He speaks from the heart and doesn’t change positions depending on the crowd he speaks to. he did not have to change is ideas when he answered our call to run for President. He had the ideas all along. Campaigning isn’t his strong suit, for sure. He isn’t all fire and brimstone like the others. If you listen to him you know he is the guy we need. He will get his message out louder now and America will answer at the polls.
Love, Love, Love Fred!!! It is time that Rush Limbaugh comes out and officially throws his support behind Fred.
Each of the canidates has one or two good ideas. McCain on stopping earmarks, Huckabee on his fair tax, Romney has the brains and expeience to run the country and stand up to China, but Fred has it all. I just hope he keeps talking and gets his message out.
