The Prowler reports that Fred Thompson, along with Jeb Bush, has been placed "on a conservative wish list for those not happy with the current crop of Republican presidential candidates in 2008."

p>Tell me. What conservative would ever again vote for a Bush? br> -- Jack Hughes br> Chicago, Illinois /p> p> I'm a conservative, and Jeb Bush is not on my wish list. In fact, I don't consider Jeb Bush, or his brother, to be conservatives. Thompson, on the other hand, is someone I could possibly support, but we don't need more faux conservatives like the Bushes, McCain, or Giuliani. br> -- Wade White br> Franklin, New York /p> p> Fred Thompson of Tennessee for President? We can have: Giuliani, the pro abortion gun grabber; McCain, the unpredictable maverick; Jeb Bush, who runs from confrontation and conflict; Mitt Romney, who blows hot but mostly cold; or a host of other lesser lights. OK, I prefer Fred, but simply as the best of what's available. br> -- Lifelong Conservative who votes Republican
