I’m in Nashville on business this week, and all the buzz locally (defined as Steve Gill’s morning show on WLAC-AM)is whether former Senator Fred Thompson is going to run.
Gill had Hugh Hewitt on the program the other morning, and Hewitt thinks it’s too late in the cycle for Sen. Thompson to start a campaign now. I’m willing to look into the possibility, though; presently I’m thumbs down for Guiliani and McCain, and only a tenuous thumbs-horizontal on Romney.
Wm F. Buckley made the comment years ago about supporting “the rightwardmost viable candidate”, but please, surely, can’t we get someone more rightward than these three?
