That shows me that Thompson is the leader and is not just a "sock-puppet"..

And, just what is it you have against puppets???

I didn't see the others raise their hands....How embarrassing for all of them! And really, I have more and more regard for Fred Thompson....He behaves like a Statesman, and we certainly have so few of them, one is hard pressed to anme another on either side, except Romney fits the bill as well. And to be honest, I like Rudy too, although he seems like a more "brash, get the job done" type of guy, and he may not be as diplomatic as he needs to be.... However, I would trust my life on what he has to say, and what he does, about terrorism. Sure as heck can't say that about any on the Left side of the fence!

We were talking the other night about just how little we really know about any of the candidates, on the Right or on the Left.... You just have to wonder....if the type of questions that are asked by so many are just the best they can come up with ?(with the one exception of Brit Hume)

I think someday Hume would make a good Congressman or Administration Officer, but he makes much more money doing what he does well, that I can't see him doing anything else but what he does well now.

And most of all.. what kind of friggin' question is that ask at a debate?

The Des Moines newspaper editor thought she was conducting a communications or journalism class with her hand raising question. What a dolt!

Kudos to Thompson. At least one guy showed some cajones.

I hope he does well in Iowa and NH. We need someone besides Guiliani and Rommney in this GOP race.
