Another reason to like Fred Dalton Thompson

He scares the piss out of the Dems

Even before his expected July announcement, Fred Thompson’s all-but-declared entry into the Republican presidential stakes has prompted the Democratic National Committee to attack him as a potential GOP front-runner and to use his prospective candidacy to raise money.

Democratic strategists say Thompson’s populist style and show-biz allure could prove extremely appealing in a general election at a time when voters are so down on Washington. So the party has launched a preemptive campaign against him that includes a DNC fundraising e-mail branding Thompson, “The inside-outsider.”

If I didn’t already like the guy, this would sway towards him.

And unlike a former Dem President I could name, his “formers” still like Thompson. Sort of a “Ladies man for actual ladies. Not trumped up husseys” kind of guy. Hit the link and read the quotes from these gals. You know they have to make Hillary’s eyes bulge.
