Thompson has an ace-in-the-hole, his young, beautiful wife By Tom PurcellCagle Syndicate Single women are, too. Traditionally, single women avoid the polls for the simple reason that many of them don't follow politics very closely. But they're likely to register and vote for Hillary because they identify with her. Hillary makes them feel good.
That's why I'd vote for Thompson. His hot young wife makes me feel good, too. Sure, I know presidential campaigns are supposed to be about ideas. I know the media are supposed to hold candidates to account -- make them articulate what they will or will not do if they become president. I know a president's ideas -- not his or her sex, skin color or ethnicity -- are what really matter. I know we have no shortage of problems right now. We're divided on how to face down terrorist threats. Social Security and Medicare are two train wrecks coming at us at high speed. Some candidates want to lower taxes and some want to jack them up. But who cares about any of that? Who cares about analyzing each candidate's ideas based on which are best for our country? What is important is Fred Thompson's hot young wife. She gives me hope that my first wife will be young and beautiful -- maybe my second wife, too. Tom Purcell is a humor columnist nationally syndicated exclusively by Cagle Cartoons.
