WHY in the world Fred Thompson?

I’ve received several e-mails now from the Catholic blogosphere asking to support Fred Thompson financially. Now, you guys who support him are going to have to tell me WHY in the world people still support Thompson? I simply do not understand it. Why? Well, I think a character in SNL summarized well Thompson’s attitude in his campaign when he played Thompson and said: “Well, I ‘sort of want’ to be your president.” I guess I just don’t care for him (or any other candidate, for that matter 😉 ), because he just doesn’t seem “to care.” Is that probably why he’s appealing? 🙂
