The Fred to run for RNC Chair
I would love for Fred Thompson to be the RNC Chairman. I was saddened when he dropped out of the Race for the Presidential Candidate for the GOP. But I think that he got in too late and from what I hear, his mom was very ill through most of his run. But with him at the helm of the GOP, I think that the GOP will get turned around and get back on track and bring the Party back to the Conservative side. The GOP has moved to far to the center and it has shown in the last few elections. Many of the base, Conservatives, stayed home or voted for 3rd party candidates.
I know there are few others that are running also. Lt Gov Steele is vying for the Chair and has the backing of Newt Gingrich. And I would fully support Steele also. But I think that Thompson is a bettre pick, but Steele would definitely be my second choice.
Go Fred Go Get the Red Pcik Up back out of the garage and help bring the GOP back home.

Fred Thompson may try for RNC post

Fred Thompson seems to be seriously considering a run for the leadership of the national Republican Party, as the GOP prepares to rebuild from the rubble of the 2008 election.
Supporters of Thompson, a onetime presidential candidate and former Tennessee senator, are hopeful that he might run for chairman of the Republican National Committee, a position that would make the former actor public face of the GOP.
“I’m extremely excited that he’s considering it,” said Scooter Clippard, a Middle Tennessee businessman who spearheaded national fundraising for the Thompson and McCain campaigns. “It’s time for a change. Fred Thompson would be the absolute best person to articulate that message for the party.”—dnj.com

I’m hoping Steele gets the job. But being a Maryland resident, I’m not exactly unbiased.
