How easy it is to modify your preception. The democrats lowered the bar to nearly starting the primaries two years before the vote. If you do that every 4 years then we are in a Predidential Primary race 50% of the time. 50% of our lives will be lintening to this. You have all heard Hillary &amp;amp; Obama talk so much, followed by everyone else, your bored.&lt;br&gt;Fred isn't late yet, granted it needs to be soon. BUT this is normal. Hillery forced the field way early this year. You see, she had so far to go, to move to the center, she had to start a year early. Most everyone but Fred Thompson, jumped right behind Hillery. None of these Bozo's should have been campaining until now. Hillery &amp;amp; Obama should have been on the Hill doing the job they were hired to do. Be Senators!!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Fred's right on the ball. Listen to your wife Fred.

He is about the same age as most U.S presidential candidates of the last 50 years or so and so what if he has a young wife? As for being lazy, I dont see how somebody who is lazy could go from the son of a poor Alabama farm hand to a successful lawyer, a two term U.S senator, a tv and movie actor and a member of the council of foreign relations. I dont think Hillary is lazy but she didnt rise out of a lower income household or even pass her bar exam the first time, Thompson did. </description></item><item><title>Fred frets over funds?</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/08/14/316173.aspx#316911</link><pubDate>Tue, 14 Aug 2007 20:50:02 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:316911</guid><dc:creator>Alan Peterson, Knoxville, Tennessee</dc:creator><description>Karl Rove for President.
