Why Fred Thompson should run

By Mona Charen

The current Republican field is like a smorgasbord at Denny's — lots of OK choices, but nothing to get the heart racing. That's why the potential candidacy of former Sen. Fred Thompson is creating a palpable stir.
He hasn't dreamed of becoming president since he was in diapers. But he has noticed that 57 percent of Republicans tell pollsters they are unsatisfied with the current field.

It may be that no one can play a Republican president better than Fred Thompson.

It's easy to act when you are surrounded by suck-ups, paid ridiculous amounts of money, and have the luxury of doing multiple takes. I think what we saw in the debates was a completely different Fred Thompson, the real Fred Thompson. I'm sure that all of those debate moments would have ended up on the cutting room floor. You only get one chance to make a first impression and Fred blew it big-time.

The writer's strike is causing his campaign major problems I suppose! No script = no Fred! :D

Run?
I don't think he could even walk fast.
Just another choice for the "Bush Lite" crowd.
