Sunshine State Update

A whole week for Thompson - are we done yet? This and this suggest it was all too much. A "bit more worn" and he "seemed wearier Friday, fumbling for words more often in Miami." (Seriously, you wonder how Romney and Rudy do not 2 but 5 events a day.) And Thompson is now talking about revisiting citizenship granted to all born in the U.S. He said : ""That law was created in another time and place for valid reasons. It probably needs to be revisited." He also wondered whether a statute or Constitutional amendment would be needed. Maybe they didn't cover the 14th Amendment in "Law and Order." Aside from the Constitutional hurdle ( Is this a conservative mind at work, by the way? Only one week on the trail and already we're up to two Constitutional amendments?) I think this misreads Florida politics.
