RUN, FRED, RUN
Close friends of Fred Thompson say his wife Jeri is urging him to take the plunge later this year and run for the Republican presidential nomination.
The former senator from Tennessee and current actor on “Law & Order,” in private conversation, makes it clear that he is seriously interested in launching a candidacy that has attracted extraordinary attention over the last two weeks. However, he does not plan to announce his candidacy in the immediate future.
The major rap against Thompson is that he was not a hard worker during his eight years in the Senate. His friends respond that this is an easily correctable error and that the same complaint was made about Ronald Reagan before he ran for president.
Sounds like Jeri Thompson would like to be First Lady.

You don’t see too many pictures of Fred smiling. These are nice. If you don’t mind, I’ll link to them. Google Image Search has been sending folks looking for pictures of Jeri to a picture of Debra LaFave.

Why I’m Voting for Fred Thompson
Because I want to see more of his surgically enhanced wife, Jeri Kehn:
First lady material???? hmmmmm, I think NOT!
she looks kind of fat in the picture a bit of a double chin there and he looks REALLLY OLD next to her
Shes more attractive than Hillary i can say that
yankee girl sounds catty there. How do you know she isn’t first lady material? Don’t be so witchy.
Ya know the boobs do look real to me…saggy…not way up to there!! Also, he seems very charasmatic and that is sexy!!!! He is much more of a man than nerdy Rudy!!!
Look at it this way:
He has, to him, a young hottie wife. Think he’s going to blow it over some floozy dingbat intern? Think he will be planning for the day when he can get her out of the house (like by running for the senate in NY) so he can horn dog around?
This guy will be contented and satisfied, and able to focus on his job.
They get my vote! Him too.
He couldn’t be any worse than the other candidates.
I think Jeri would do just fine in the White House…..
As for her weight…….it’s not that much extra plus, they have a 3 or 4 year old and another baby was born last Dec.
And……maybe Fred doesn’t like stick figure women…..
Well, she isn’t as bad as Rudy’s wife, eeeeewwwww.
Root for America for a change??? What is there to root for? War? Domestic oppression?
I didn’t know about Fred Thompson’s young trophy wife until the story in today’s NYT-but it completes the picture of this guy as the dream opponent for the democrats in the general election. He is an old (65 and an old 65), incredibly boring long-term highly paid lobbyist for special interests, totally ineffective US senator where for six years he did practically nothing and had a dismal attendance record.(One of the worst in recent senate history) He is a grade C (at best) actor and he has had leukemia for six years. Now with the trophy wife—what more could his political opponents want?
Unblievable; Talk about reaching. She is a dissapointment after all I heard. A little overweight. Attractive? well, ok, but this is no spring chicken sex pot, which is what the libs want to make her out to be. False boobs? I have a friend with nearly 2x what teri has and they are real. Do I hear jell-o-se from small brested women? Like hillary.
I have to laugh at the “Trophy Wife” mantra. Jeri has had a very successful career of her own. This isn’t some empty-headed bimbo like that insult would imply.
She is a former lawyer and GOP spokeswoman. She did say she fought to get him and still does to keep him. (Think floozys at cocktail parties). She simply should release some suit pictures. With hair coiffed, or not, and she is off to the races. She also needs to do some appearances of her own, loosely scripted to show off her impressive schorlarly background. Get in front of this story and never let up. That is my motto. Don’t stop till your gutter-mind foes are ground beef. Then process them into plasma arc fodder. Nothing feels better than getting rid of another dead body. Fuhhgedabout it! The next guy will think twice.
What is up with you people? Anyone who wants to complain that Mrs. Thompson is too fat, not fat enough, too pretty, not pretty enought, bimbo, career woman, etc. should be required to post a swim suit picture of themselves and a resume. That way the rest of us can critize them as well. Sheesh, people look in the mirror (both literally and metaphorically speaking).
The above Jeff Smith is a genius. He ought to apply for Fred’s campagn or even as Jeri’s publicist.
Jeri – you are fine – ignore all the press, you’re smart, you’re beautiful, protect the kids, do what you can to help, your southern sisters (and moms) understand and are behind you all the way….
Fred – besides protecting Jeri and the kids…GHWB2 hasn’t done you any favors, but then, you’re smart enough to know that…can you get us out of Iraq and fix America? As a TN girl, I have more faith in you as a problem solver than I do any of the other folks running…and I have to say…even as a conservative girl…Hillary has a better plan than Mit, John Edwards, O’bama, or the rest….I’m not even mentioning Guliani…but, remind me – why did we go to Iraq? Will you please talk with John Duncan, Jr. again? I have to agree with him…It wasn’t worth it…economically, politically, every other way…Duncan’s the only rep I’ve known to vote the way I believe…even if it hurt his rep…America can’t save everyone and every country..

Well, I am glad to know that you all are picking out a “sexy” president with “real boobs” trophy wife! It’s not like the issues mean anything right. Since Karl Rove’s top assistant is now working for Fred, we can be gauranteed 4 more years of Bush, I am sure the Dems will be scared to run against that ! Haha, this is THE guy that can get Hillary elected! Anyone that supports a lazy nominee that was proded to run by his ego driven wife is asking for defeat! An ACTOR? Get real, we NEED a true Statesman!
