I didn't see the speech live. I helped the kids with their homework and then sat down at the kitchen table and looked through bills I couldn't pay and wondered where I'd find the hope to make it through another day. Whoops! I guess I watched too much of the Democrats' convention. Truth be told, we all had ice cream and fresh blueberries and then I bought a book on a whim off of Amazon. Excelsior! In...

Fred Thompson's speech was one of the most effective character witness addresses I have ever seen in politics. It was deeply moving in recounting John McCain's five years as a POW. He told the story in vivid and at times excruciating detail. As Rich says, I'm not sure McCain's story has ever been told better.

Fred's back. Remember: Big guy, TV actor, ran for president at a leisurely stroll, appealed to all those voters for whom the most important characteristic in a chief executive is "laziness." Apparently he still has presidential ambitions. This gives me an opportunity to post yet again a link to my incisive, not-entirely-boring and tragically unread profile of the former senator and Watergate...
