This is truly a story to savor. About a year ago the media was full of reports about how the Republican nomination would belong to Fraud once he deigned to campaign alongside mere mortals.

This campaign has had few pleasures, but watching Fraud go absolutely nowhere, and fast, was a sheer delight.

But FIRST, a nap. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

he'd better get a job, if he wants to keep his play-toy wife.

Nooooo.......I wanted him to run in 2012 or maybe 2016. Make sure he only signs a 3 year contract.

Finally someone to fill the abundance of roles calling for a tired old white guy who walks with an air of regret and missed opportunity. Actually, he might do okay.

He shoulda never left!

Sorry, Fred, they've already made Grumpy Old Men ... you can always do a Bob Dole and peddle Viagra.

Hope he can stay awake, I hear they have to arrange shooting the film between naps, every 2 hours.

Are they bringing back the series "Dead Like Me"?

Does it mean a new Addams Family series has been green-lighted? ;)

So this means Fred Thompson is giving up his day job as a *lobbyist?*

Heart be still! That would break more than a few black hearts amongst the "Gng of Pedophiles"...

Thompson should've stuck with the Law & Order gig. That role was perfect for someone as lazy as Thompson. You sit behind a desk and say your lines. Nothing physical to the role. No big emotional scenes. Not a lot of screen time. All the things that would cause any other actor to get bored and quit. Guess he can't go back to L&O now. Where else can an actor find a role like that? Maybe he can become a celebrity pitchman.

His next film is a remake of 'The Blob'.

Guess which role is his?

Used to like him, kind of an Andy Griffith appeal, but after getting to know who he is in a campaign, just ICKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK.

Will never be able to watch him again. What a pompous blow hard, such a poser. No energy, no ideas,
no real animae of an actual human, just a con artist.

I speculated at the start that when Thomposon announced his candidacy and then ran such a tepid campaign that it was actually about moving himself from the B-List to the A-List of actors.

Moving from the one list to the other can mean millions, and is mostly a matter of name recognition rather than skill.
