Boy, those FOX guys are smarting from being shunned by Fred Thompson. The very first question out of the gate to the Republican presidential contenders was how they felt about Fred appearing on Leno instead of next to them.

Listening to the cheers after Ron Paul's declaration of being the anti-war candidate leads me to think that 1) FOXNews didn't do the same kind of loyalty oath-selected audience that Bush has done and 2) Republicans continuing to support the Bush agenda are going to be very unhappy come November.
