I smell something

Could it be a FRED?

George Will on Fred Thompson’s presidential campaign launch: Thompson - Just a Fad?

Money quote:

Fred Thompson’s plunge into the presidential pool — more belly-flop than swan dive — was the strangest product launch since that of New Coke in 1985. Then the question was: Is this product necessary? A similar question stumped Thompson the day he plunged.

I agree with Will.  My take from a while back:

…when FRED figures out that his is the current version of Wesley Clark’s 2004 presidential campaign).

Anybody want to lay odds on how long the FREDmobile lasts in the campaign candidate caravan?  I’ll give him 3 months, tops.
