Clever pun on Fred Thompson's appearance as Adm Josh Painter in The Hunt For Red October (Funny, I know a good Army SSG named Josh Painter). Another columnist that backs Fred Dalton Thompson.
Republicans have been going through a process not uncommon in politics. They’ve been looking over the field in the race and wondering if there isn’t a faster horse that has yet to enter.
If Thompson seeks the Republican nomination, he’ll win it, unless there is some as-yet-unknown oversized skeleton lurking in his political closet.
He’ll win for three reasons:
He’s a southerner with conservative credentials in national government service
He’s a personality in an age of personality-driven politics
He will out-presence his opponents
