Fred's Breaking of the Rules

Jay Cost over at Real Clear Politics has written an article talking about why Thompson is being panned by the political elites and yet polling well. His basic answer is that Fred is breaking "fake" rules, but not the real ones. One example that he gave was the way that Fred announced his candidacy on Leno--he was panned for doing it, but it got him a lot of coverage.

Ultimately Fred is frustrating the media establishment by breaking their artificial rules.
