Puzzled as to why the anti-abortion National Right to Life Committee would blow its valuable presidential endorsement on a no-hoper like Fred Thompson? You're not the only one. Daniel Larison at Eunomia is scratching his head:
It would be one thing to endorse Thompson on the grounds that he has a solid voting record (and they did cite this at the announcement), or that he is more reliable and trustworthy than the other leading candidates. But this appeal to his potential as the Bane of Giuliani seems as wrong as it gets.
Well, at least something's going right for Fred for a change.
