My Recommendation for President: Fred Thompson
As always, it seems, my pick for President is not my first choice, but is the lesser of all the other evils. I have not had a candidate that I whole heartedly supported since Reagan - and I didn’t even support him in his first run; he earned my respect and support during that term.
Of the Republican front runners, I can still see myself supporting Rudy or Romney, though I have reservations about each. I think that Rudy is finding that being America’s Mayor is not the same thing as being President would be, and I honestly think he is losing the “fire in his belly” for the run. Don’t get me wrong - I still believe that he could take the race if he wanted it, and do a great job. I just don’t think that in his heart of hearts he really wants it. He’d be a tremendous Attorney General or FBI director, though.
