Title: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign? Post by: Reaganfan on November 15, 2008, 03:25:48 AM Along with Jindal, Palin, Huckabee and Romney...I think he would seriously challenge Obama's re-election.
Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign? Post by: MR maverick on November 15, 2008, 04:03:58 AM I wanted to root for him at the start on the republican side, but he never could interest me.
With that said unless he changes NO WAY. Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign? Post by: The Ex-Factor on November 15, 2008, 07:44:30 AM Unless he gets kidnapped by aliens and boosted with a sudden infusion of energy, I think he's more likely to fall asleep for the next 4 years than to run for President again in 4 years.
Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign? Post by: cannonia on November 15, 2008, 08:06:53 AM Funny, his temperament was one of his selling points. Methinks too many posters on this forum bought into a media "narrative."
Sadly, I doubt Fred will be interested in running in 2012. Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign? Post by: MR maverick on November 15, 2008, 10:09:39 AM How can I ever forget that interview he did with Hannity once. No energy at all, no drive or anything.
Hell that interview put me sleep. I hope he gets a shot in the arm or something by 2012. Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign? Post by: WalterMitty on November 15, 2008, 10:16:44 AM another campaign from f thompson would certainly energize america.
the only tennessee republican who may run in 2012 is bob corker. Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign?

Yeah, too bad Lamar Alexander doesn't have a shot. Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign?

That was a joke right? Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign? Post by: Keystone Phil on November 15, 2008, 10:58:40 AM I assume you mean Fred, not Tom. If I am correct, nice attempt at a joke, Naso.
Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign? Post by: A18 on November 15, 2008, 11:01:20 AM He seemed only moderately interested in being president. Which is refreshing.

Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign? Post by: The Populist on November 15, 2008, 06:37:49 PM Fred Thompson proved to be a terrible Presidential candidate in 2008. There is no way he would do any better in 2012.
Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign? Post by: Kaine for Senate '18 on November 15, 2008, 07:13:45 PM LOL. Thompson was a failure this year; he'll be even worse in 4 years.
Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign? Post by: Aizen on November 15, 2008, 11:07:31 PM He'll probably be dead by 2012.
Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign? Post by: paul718 on November 15, 2008, 11:16:28 PM He'll probably be dead by 2012. moron Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign?

Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign? Post by: phk on November 15, 2008, 11:57:52 PM He seemed only moderately interested in being president. Which is refreshing. Nice! Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign? Post by: Erc on November 16, 2008, 10:23:09 PM He would be 70 by inauguration day. Younger than McCain was this year, yes, but pushing it considering the reputation acquired in '08.

Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign? Post by: Eraserhead on November 17, 2008, 10:30:39 AM He should probably film Baby's Day Out 2 instead.
Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign? Post by: TomC on November 17, 2008, 04:42:45 PM the only tennessee republican who may run in 2012 is bob corker. Don't count out a Bill Frist comeback. Not that he'd win, but he's interested. Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign?

Has there been any news in TN of him running for governor? Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign?

Has there been any news in TN of him running for governor? Yes, he and Marsha Blackburn are the most often mentioned. Rep. Wamp a little, Lt. Gov Ramsey a little.

Don't count out a Bill Frist comeback. Not that he'd win, but he's interested. Seriously? This is the first I've heard of that. Are there any news articles out there that discuss this, or is this just something you've heard on the unofficial grapevine? Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign?

Frist should wait it out a little. He seems a bit too tied to the Bush years. Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign? Post by: Gustaf on November 18, 2008, 11:54:14 AM lol

Are there any news articles out there that discuss this, or is this just something you've heard on the unofficial grapevine? There are absolutely reports of his running for governor. Also, his "VOLPAC" seems to be supporting candidates across the nation, not just in Tennessee. I don't think he'd fare well, but I do believe he's tempted.

It wouldn't make much sense for him to run for governor in 2010, and then, the second he's been sworn into this new job, start running for president. If he runs for governor, I'd take that as an indication that he's not interested in running for president until 2016. Title: Re: Any chance for a Thompson '12 campaign? Post by: RIP Robert H Bork on December 02, 2008, 12:52:47 AM No, Thompson is a total joke and a spoiler. It was thanks to him that McCain won SC in the primaries.
