The start of the obsticles

Watching from the sidelines as his polling numbers went up is one thing, now being in the presidential race is a completely different ball game. Reading an article on the fox news website

It appears that Fred Thompson is having a rough start in his campaign. This article is a big Thompson bashing fest. One of its major points is that Thompson is not in tune with the republican party but does not even know about land mark issues such as Terri Schiavo. It appears from first glance that these seemingly, no comment answers are giving the general public the perception that Fred Thompson is just fooling around in his campaign. I still reserve no comments to that effect pending more research.

Going further down this same page it goes on to talk about as a lawyer Fred Thompson represented some really bad people such as terrorist from Libya as well as defending pro-choice though he claims to be pro-life. I will not defend these actions past, he was a lawyer. What I did see this particular article mention was that Lawyers may not always choose their cases. For example, someone has to defend the known murderer of a little school girl . Its the way our legal system works. I will simply leave it at that.
