R. Neal is re-building a server. No time to play.
Let's try to boost Gore's numbers.
UPDATE: We've cut it from 75% Fred to 70% Fred. We can do better. Get the word out to whatever "liberal" blogs will listen. The wingnuts are way more organized. They've actually "freeped" it from Free Republic. This is why they win and we lose. Not because they are "right", but because they yell louder. Get organized. Send a message. Get out the vote. Show Al some love and embarrass Fred in his "home" state (even though he wasn't born here). Keep in mind this is a poll by a Fred Thompson shill and paid blogger working for a right wing paper in Tennessee. Are you going to let them get away with this?

Polling number for Fred Thompson, the apologist and fund raiser for convicted perjurer Scooter Libby greater than Al Gore. THIS MUST BE ET.

Okay, I enjoy unintentional irony far too much. That's just worth quoting for self-inconsistency
Show Al some love and
Show Al some love and embarrass Fred in his "home" state (even though he wasn't born here).
...and technically speaking, neither was Al Gore. Al was born in a hospital in Washington, D.C. and raised in Carthage, TN.
Just saying...
Yes, let's fight back
Yes, let's fight back against shilling for Fred by ... oh my, shilling for Gore!
Way. To. Go.

Yes, while all this shilling is going on (Fred, pro-war, pro-life, pro-gun, pro-torture) we'll just sit around and wait for the important people to make all of our decisions for us. Just keep our mouths shut. Nothing to see here. Move along.
Pro-life Fred. Wonder how

Wonder how many abortions he's paid for?

And take free advice from the GOP on how to behave and what candidates to run and so forth.
I can't wait for Fred to
I can't wait for Fred to join the presidential race and absolutely slaughter the competition. All these moderate goofballs that have been clumsily positioning themselves for the primary are going to see all their work go for nothing when FRED DALTON THOMPSON shows up. This man will be the next Reagan and it's none too soon. I've already got my Fred the President t-shirt and you can too! You can get one for yourself and see my other conservative themed gems at (link...). I know you'll all be rushing there to support the cause...
