Heck of a day for the Republicans

While most of the Republican presidential crowd will be New Hampshire on Wednesday facing off in yet another debate, newly minted hopeful Fred Thompson will be trying to steal the candidates thunder.

Reportedly scheduled to appear on Jay Leno on Wednesday, and rumored to have a trick or two up his sleeve in an attempt to shine the spotlight on himself, Thompson might just get it right.

Without a doubt, Republican hopefuls are going to have thier hands full for the next few months.

Save the Debate

The guys at Save the Debate have done a great job of bringing attention to the CNN/YouTube debate sponsored by the Republican Party of Florida.

Patrick Ruffini, David All et al are really cranking up the pressure and the candidates would be crazy to pass up this opportunity.

Help send them a message and spread the word by visiting the Save the Debate website and signing the petition.
