I have never heard anyone say that Fred Thompson was unqualified to serve as president of the United States. I haven't heard too many people say that he was wrong on the issues. But I have heard from people are reluctant to vote for Fred because he (1) got in the race too late or (2) it's too late for him.
People like to sound smart. If I had a nickel for everyone who thought they were smart, then I'd be about as rich as Mitt Romney. People like to sound smart by talking about the horse race instead of talking about the issues. That is, they overthink the thing.
Like Crash Davis said to Nuke Laloosh in Bull Durham: "Don't think. It hurts the team."
That's right. Some people think TOO MUCH. The simple fact is that if people would just go into the voting booths in the Republican primary and vote their consciences, then Fred would win. So you just need to go out there and remind people to just vote their conscience.
And don't forget the Conservatives with Attitude! straw poll this coming Saturday in Woodbridge.
