Will conservatives continue to throw McCain under the bus for Thompson?

Especially after news that a family planning group hired Fred Thompson as a lobbyist.

I’ve never understood the excitement that conservatives have for Thompson. It’s been stated many times that he’s not the hardest worker, and I really can’t point to anything of significance that he has done in terms of policy.

I would not be surprised if more revelations came out that proved to contradict his conservative “credentials”.

    No, but I’d easily do it for Romney.

    You mean the politician that out flip-flopped Kerry? God help us if he’s the nominee.

  3. Braden on

    Romney took responsibility for his changes, Kerry never did.

    Besides what about Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton, Al Gore, and Jesse Jackson?

    What about them?

  6. Braden on

    They “flip-flopped” just like Romney did.

    Also, I would like to add that Romney’s “changes” occurred 1-1 1/2 years before he announced his presidential candidacy.

    BTW, what are you saying that H.W. and Reagan flip-flopped on?

    H.W. and Reagan flip-flopped on abortion. Sounds crazy, but it’s true.
