Fred Thompson wows ‘em.

Great speech by Fred Thompson at the GOP confab in St. Paul. Too bad he was a lousy campaigner, he would have made a great nominee because he gives a better speech than Obama.

The message was: Republicans are patriotic and do not apologize for America, Mccain is a patriot who will keep our nation strong. Obama is an inexperienced apologist for the US who cares more about what foreigners think of us than what we think of ourselves.

The other message: Democrats are coming to raise your taxes. Great “bucket” analogy: Democrats say, don’t worry, we’re only taking water out of the other side of the bucket, not your side. Or, we’re only going to raise taxes on business, it won’t affect you. So, unless you buy groceries, gas or you work for a business, don’t worry. Good stuff.
