The Old Players, and a Possible New Player

Rudy may have, apparently, one last chance to even out the upcoming playing field.

Should he?

On the Left:

Hillary and Obama. The Old and the New of the Far Left Wing. Obama is young but a Nice Negro. Hillary is older and anything but nice. O, such confusal!

Hillary is apparently Insufficiently Left to appease the Greater Far Left Occupiers. They are unsatisfied. But this is nothing new.

Some are speculating the most Presidential Hopefuls have exposed their political ploys way too early in the Master Plan -- to the point where many are already experiencing plunging numbers (like I place much credence in polls at this stage of anyone's campaign).

Despite that, I submit there is one Playah many have failed to take into account:

Fred Dalton Thompson.

Old, hangdog, tall, bejowled, bald, white boy, Fred Thompson.

Two-term Senator from Tennessee (1994 - 2003), Fred Thompson.

Smart enough to be on "Law And Order" via television, and co-host of Paul Harvey's "The Rest of the Story" on radio? Both at once? Free "face exposure," anyone?

Whilst it is speculated some may have blasted off on presidential aspirations too early, Fred has yet to officially make any determination. Is he crazy? Or crazy like a fox?

I submit the New York Sun article may have some legitimate legs. To wit:

-- Mit Romney polls number one;

-- Rudy Giuliani polls number two;

-- Fred Thompson (no official announcement whatsoever) polls number three;

John McCain is all over the board.

But allow me to submit some obvious if not abhorrent reasons for some polling numbers:

• Mit Romney: a Republican, but another one of those damned polygamists;
• Rudy Giuliani: a natural Leader but choice, gun, wife and family issues;
• John McCain: GOP obstructionist, McCain/Feingold, "it's all about him";
  

I say: put Fred into the equation and let's see how things shake out. My guess: no announcement from Fred until June or July.
