I know very little about Fred Thompson, politically, but what I do know makes me want to know more.

James Dobson doesn't seem to be a fan... so that's a plus.

"Everyone knows he's conservative and has come out strongly for the things that the pro-family movement stands for," Dobson said of Thompson. "[But] I don't think he's a Christian; at least that's my impression," Dobson added, saying that such an impression would make it difficult for Thompson to connect with the Republican Party's conservative Christian base and win the GOP nomination.

So... even if the guy supports the same causes you do... if he's not a Christian, forget it!

Sigh. I hate politics.
