…But we knew that for awhile now, even if Fred Thompson (and his equally lazy supporters) wouldn’t admit it. I’m not sure if he even made an actual announcement that he actually showed up for — I mean, I’ve been watching the news for it, but I just haven’t seen it yet today. Now he’ll have more time to watch his trophy wife.
Yeah, let’s keep the lazy storyline going about this guy. It’s a good way to diminish the drubbings he took in most of the early states from Ron Paul. As we know it’s pretty hard to get beat by a candidate that allegedly only exists on the Internet — unless, of course, you are truly lazy. His low numbers certainly weren’t due to his scintillating ideas that helped him stand apart from what the media called the “leading candidates”. Can you name one idea? I surely can’t.
I heard a self-described libertarian supporting Thompson since he wouldn’t get much done — government can’t get bigger if you are too sleepy to sign bills into laws. That would definitely be a boon to the economy — definitely a lot better than those CYA stimulus package ideas that will make politicians look concerned. Outside the box thinking, but still not good enough for me to support Thompson.
While Thompson will be missed, I hope that next week after the Florida Republican primary we can talk about some of the broke candidates dropping out (probably Giuliani, but maybe even Huckabee).
