Fred Thompson gives some handicapping, some observations, and some advice on the election.

Fred Thompson's Take

Mitt's job tonight: convince people that he is strong, that he is principled, and that he is reasonable fredthompsonsamerica.com/2012/08/30/wha…

NBC's Chuck Todd: "real media bias is geographic". That's true. Liberals in the media DO seem to be living in their own little world. #tcot

Obama blasts Romney for saying students should "borrow money from parents." Yup, do what Obama does: borrow money from future children #tcot

Did Romney just send a jet to Wisconsin?

Who will be Mitt Romney's Vice President pick?  

Of course, remember who advised watching "de plane, de plane!"

Don't disappoint me Mitt

I like Paul Ryan a lot.  And if David Frum hates it, you know it is a good call by Romney.  Still I am not getting my hopes up too high.  I was way too disappointed by Roberts on the Obamacare decision.

There always remains Fred:  Tan, Rested, Ready.

Update:
There is not a lot of buzz out there (yet, as of 7:30 p.m.).  But people are starting to notice.
Chatter is increasing for Paul Ryan 
To paraphrase Michael in Godfather II:  Mitt, If you don't pick Paul Ryan...you'll disappoint me.

Don't disappoint Ace or you will face a ball pein hammer attack!  

On Mitt Romney's upcoming Vice President pick...

Romney is making his pick.  I am fairly certain Mitt is not going to do this...

But I would love to be surprised!
I am sure Fred is tan, rested, and ready!
I would be happy with Jeri Thompson too!  

But Paul Ryan definitely works. 

Update:  And David Frum hates Ryan!  How cool is that!  

Fred Thompson: Mitt Romney has Matt Drudge in his back pocket...

FRED DECLARES: Romney has 'DRUDGE in back pocket'...
;D ;0 $$

Well Mitt better not sit down then!


I am not buying Drudge is the force behind the wave, 
Drudge is riding the wave. 
But Mark Levin is right about this.


Update:  Mark Levin is right about this too, leave Matt Drudge alone!

Good commentary from Sister Toldjah.  Yeah guys, we are seeing a pattern.
The Other McCain:  The Mittinistry of Truth told you he will get rid of Obamacare...

Friends of Mitt are helping to make the waves: Romney supporters go into panic mode (after South Carolina)

Matt Drudge does have Mitt Romney and Donald Trump in his back pocket...
