From the Blogs 4/9
Fred’s post on RedState was a hit. Erick from RedState writes:
The post went up, originally, at 4:08 p.m. EDT on Saturday, April 7, 2007, a holiday weekend. Within two hours it had 69 comments. On a holiday weekend. Within 15 hours it had over 150 comments. On a holiday weekend. Within 24 hours of the post appearing, it became the fifth most popular post at RedState since we’ve had the ability to track — and I’d venture to say is in the top five for all time at RedState. On a holiday weekend. The series of tubes we call the internets has been buzzing about Sen. Thompson’s entry into the blogosphere. We’ve gotten inbound links from across the conservative blogosphere and even from the left.
Jason from Post Political urges folks to sign the Fred ‘08 petition. We agree.
The Draft Fred Thompson camp is gearing up. They are currently sending emails to those on their list, asking supporters to sign the petition to show support.
As we’re in a time of urgency, to show that conservatives support Thompson’s candidacy, it’s important for all of us to do what we can to send that message.
Conservablog has launched a Blogs for Thompson site that rounds up the best Fred-related news periodically. Worth adding to your feed reader.
