President Thompson?
Doug Petch speculated a few day ago about Fred Thompson becoming President. Hmmmmm…paired with Condi, perhaps? Thompson/Rice, or Rice/Thompson — either way, it looks good. I scanned a short bio of Thompson and was struck by this:
Fred Thompson was elected to the United States Senate…defeating six-term Democratic U.S. Representative Jim Cooper in a landslide which represented the most votes anyone had ever received for a statewide office in Tennessee history up to that point…Thompson was easily re-elected in 1996 over Democratic attorney Houston Gordon of Ripley, Tennessee by an even larger margin than that by which he had defeated Cooper two years earlier.

He’d be a real Law & Order President.
Yes, I know. Groan. Boo. Hiss.

Hmm…are we still convinced that Condi can really do it? I mean, I think she can..but, will the baggage of Iraq and lack of political experience hurt her?
