Thompson: The Courage to Address the Nation's Real Problems,and the Leadership to Solve Them
Statement from Thompson Communications Director Todd Harris:
"Tonight, Mitt Romney and Rudy Giuliani continued their partisan bickering, this time over things like the constitutionality of the line item veto. While they played politics, Fred Thompson rose above it and took his conservative, small government, tax cutting message straight to the American people.
"He talked directly to the American people about keeping more of what they earn. He talked truth about entitlements. He talked about keeping America safe. He made it known that when it comes to our national security, it won't be his attorneys that Fred Thompson will first sit down with, it will be his generals.
"Overall, he showed the courage and honesty to address the nation's real problems, and the leadership to solve them. Fred Thompson may have been standing between Romney and Rudy, but he stood far above both of them."
