| 102 | Robert Chapin | Beauty may be in the eyes of the beholder, but you guys weren't even objective in your description Fred Thompson's post-Iowa-caucus speech .
Shame on you. |
| 103 | Anonymous | Thanks for what you are doing. I've donated before and will do it again. Fred is this country's last hope. I can't believe that finishing third is a bad thing. No one is calling for Rudy to drop out he finished 6th. Go Fred! |
| 104 | Dale B. Morgan | This is a pastor who is for Thompson not the "other guy".
Like Sgrt. Friday in Dragnet please only give "just the facts...Mam... The who, what, why, where of journalism...
Please reveal to the public who your favorite candidate is. Thanks. |

| 108 | Anonymous | Politico: Your dishonest reporting and slanted remarks are disgusting. What ever happened to what used to be "journalistic ethics"? Or haven't you heard about them? You should be ashamed of yourselves. |

| 112 | Jan Yarnot | Yes, I noticed that even after Thompson denied the planted story, Politico has kept after him. Shame on you. |
| 113 | Anonymous | Politico represents everything that is wrong in the media. What goes around comes around. You'll get yours. |
| 114 | TJ Adams | I think it's interesting that reports are now stating your "sources" are the Mitt Romney Campaign. Grow Up Politico. |
| 115 | Kyle Cuyler | WHY!!! Don't play news reporting politics. |
| 116 | Robert E. O'Hara, Jr. | I agree with Quin Hilyer of the American Spectator blog ":the utterly scurrilous Politico story yesterday almost certainly depressed Thompson's vote in Iowa. As I said on Fox News yesterday, for a news outlet to publish a story with UNNAMED sources that is clearly damaging to a particular campaign, on the very day of (or eve of) an election, is just unethical journalism...Why hasn't the Politico retracted its story?" |
| 117 | Kathy Sprinkle | Used to love to read you, but no more. I can get slanted, dishonest reporting by listening to the mainstream media! Have advised all my friends to trust Politico no more! |
| 118 | Robert Patrick Moscato | It is wrong to report a Rumour as fact. Senator Thompson deserves an apology. |
| 119 | bruce l jones | the sad fact is that the problem is not just with politico, the whole "main stream press", seem to think that if they just ignore, or print falsehoods, he'll go away. truth is his views are harder to beat than any of the others |
| 120 | Jim Hahn | 'nuff said on the 'StickItToPolitico" link. How unprofessional of you to run a story of that nature citing 'unnamed sources' on the day of an election. There have been a series of stories from your blog which have been factually incorrect or incomplete. Once is an accident, twice a coincidence, three plus times....a pattern. I have removed you from my favorites list, and will not be visiting your site in the future. |

| 124 | Joanne Kearns | I believe Fred Thompson is the only man who should be President, after watching the debates tonite I am so fearful if one of those idiot Dems ever get to the White House, Obama is pathetic with his ignorance. Pity us with those fools in charge |
| 125 | Joe Manning | Reading Politico's coverage of Fred Thompson's campaigns is like a trip to a parallel universe. Their bias shows very clearly and is unbecoming of a news organization. |
| 126 | Greg Culbert | Makes you wonder where they get their orders. Everybody works for somebody. Fred D. Thompson is working for all of us. "Don't look back leave it all on the track!" |
| 127 | laurie (Infidel Granny) | |
| 128 | Peg Emerson | You had better pay attention to "I am Demanding the Truth" and petitioners behind it. You cannot continue to distort and print unauthored attacks against Fred Thompson and other candidates. |
| 129 | Jimmer | I agree that the Politico is grinding its axe for Fred Thompson. Their reporting of his campaign has been intentionally biased and inaccurate. |
| 130 | Christina Kleinschmidt | GO FRED GO |
| 131 | nicholas payne | The liberals do not want to mention Fred Thompson's name because he makes any democrat(and most republicans)look foolish.He is a solid thinker that does not need to read his script in order to remember where he stands.Go Fred.Keep America great! |

| 137 | Charlotte Dallas | The MSM is bad enough, but at least they are subtle and just leave Fred Thompson out. |
| 138 | Michael L Jones | Politico.com and Fox News ... two of a kind out to sway public opinion, not report it. Give Fred Thompson equal media time so that conservative Americans have a real conservative choice. |
| 139 | Anonymous | Politico.com is joining the ranks of the New York Times in honest journalism. |
| 140 | Anonymous | Romney showed his lack of ethics with his embarrassing behavior at the N.H. Debate.
Since you're clearly in his pocket rather than an unbiased news source, I guess it's only fitting that you continue your lack of journalistic ethics in every word you print. |
| 141 | Suzy Ganyon | I personally have told politico they need to stick to the truth. They are out to make a name for themselves at at anyones expense. Tell them we will prevail The Huck, The Old Man the Rich Man and the Liberal Mayor Dirty tricks begin in the Media. Politico are just another example we Americans have to keep ahead. They don't realize we can think for ourselves. Suzy NC |
| 142 | Frederick Paxson | FRED THOMPSON is the best person to lead this country. He is a true conservative and has been his entire life. All one has to do is check his record to see this.
During my time in the Army as an Intelligence Analyst, I served under both Presidents Carter and Reagan (as my commanders in chief). Without argument, President Reagan was the best commander-in-chief a military person could ever have served under. Fred Thompson possesses the same qualities and vision as President Reagan in that he is strong on national defense and sees a dire need to secure our borders and control immigration.
I can think of no better person to lead this country and fix the problems we have. He is the only candidate from either party who has specific and detailed plans on border security and immigration reform; revitalization of America’s armed forces; saving and protecting Social Security; and tax relief and economic growth. These are detailed on his Web site at www.fred08.com . I challenge you to find any other candidate who has laid out specific plans to fix anything.
Fred Thompson has published his first principles, some of which are mentioned above. In addition to those, he strongly believes in individual liberty, personal responsibility, limited government, federalism, traditional American values, the rule of law and is a strong proponent of the Second Amendment — all concepts established during the birth of our country and documented in our Constitution.
Again, try to find any candidate who has laid out their plans to “fix” this country. You will find they all speak in vague and abstract terms on their plans.
For those who have heard Fred Thompson speak, you will usually hear him say that the Fred Thompson you see today is the same Fred Thompson you saw yesterday and is the same Fred Thompson you will see tomorrow. He stands by his principles and values and doesn’t shift his positions based on polls or public opinion; in other words, he doesn’t say what the voters want to hear just to get elected, but remains steadfast on his views and convictions.
During his time in the Senate he focused on three areas: to lower taxes, strengthen national security and expose waste in the federal government. Fred Thompson has foreign policy experience, having served as member of the Senate Foreign Relations and Senate Intelligence committees.
As chairman of the Senate Governmental Affairs Committee, he opened the investigation in 1997 on the Chinese government’s attempt to influence American policies and elections, and this investigation identified connections with the Clinton administration (documented in the committee’s report).
As a member of the Finance Committee, he worked tirelessly to enact three major tax-cut bills. Fred Thompson remains steadfast and even though a person may not agree with all his views and he understands some may disagree with him, you can count on him to be consistent and unwavering.
Don’t be fooled by his laid back approach and what critics call his “laziness.” As a former assistant U.S. attorney, he earned a reputation as a tough prosecutor and he possesses the toughness this country needs in order to tackle today’s and tomorrow’s issues.
I ask that you take a hard look at what this country needs, then take a hard look at all the other candidates’ views, policies, their records and their track record on consistency. Fred Thompson possesses integrity, loyalty, commitment, energy and decisiveness, all traits of an effective leader, and will emerge as the best person to take this country boldly forward.
Please help Fred win in 2008

| 143 | Jason Scalese | All accounts are that this came from Romney, all you have to do is admit that you did not have proof.
You should not be spreading rumors like this.
I enjoy this site, but this journalistic malpractice has to start. You have done the same to Guiliani too who is a flawed by decent man. |

| 148 | Joyce Vaughan Byars | You bashing Senator Fred Dalton Thompson is without any justification whatsoever. You all know this at Politico.com. There has not been ONE CANDIDATE ON EITHER SIDE who has attacked Senator Fred Thompson about his character, wisdom, knowledge, education, personal faith, stance on any political issue or foreign policy or hot button issues; the candidates cannot attack Fred because he is honest, straight-forward, he put his personal and political records out for the public to view in the very beginning, AND ALSO, presented a resolution to every hot button issue facing this Nation PLUS, there is NOT ONE MAN in this NATION who has more wisdom and knowledge of the Constution and the Rule of Law than Thompson. Judge Roberts and he are both scholars on the Constitution and the Rule of Law, but Judge Roberts does not have the expertise in Foreign Policy which Fred has, AND NEITHER DO ANY OF THE OTHER CANDIDATES ON EITHER SIDE. You idiots have made a grave mistake by attacking the only CONSERVATIVE FULLY-QUALIFIED MAN that can be placed in the OVAL OFFICE who FITS that MOLD which "We The People" created very long ago...George Washington fit it, Abe fit it, and some others in between; recent times include Eisenhower and Reagan, and not it is time for another who is Senator Fred Dalton Thompson. Why do you people, who are supposed to love, honor and cherish this Nation want to see Her destroyed by an inept and unqualified, inexperience, immature candidate, on either side by being pushed forward as your best choice - THIS IS AS UNTRUE A CHOICE AS YOUR PERSONAL BASHING OF OUR PRIME CANDIDATE, FRED THOMPSON; YOU PEOPLE SHOULD BE ASHAMED TO EVEN THINK OF YOURSELVES AS AMERICANS! WHY DO YOU NOT MOVE TO THE THIRD WORLD AND TAKE YOUR CANDIDATES WITH YOU - "WE THE PEOPLE" CAN MOST ASSUREDLY DO VERY WELL WITHOUT ANY OF YOU!!! JVByars |
