Who is next for a weekend visit at the McCain residence -- the undertaker? Even an elderly mortician might exhibit more energy than Fred Thompson has. If there is one thing that can be said about McCain as the Republican nominee, &amp;quot;thank God he isn't Thompson.&amp;quot; I don't think America could ever have recovered from a Fred Thompson Presidency. Mr. Thompson himself would have likely slept through most of the hard parts anyway. </description></item></channel></rss>
