Thompson is out.

Wow, I’d pretty much fallen asleep - as the postings show. These past days Mr. Thompson has been superb. If he keeps it up I may have to start paying attention.

Counterpoint – the Unnecessary Candidate

George Will disagrees with Allen’s glowing assessment, to put it mildly.

Robert Novak piles on…

Here’s a nice analysis of Thompson

Richard Allen at NRO discusses comparisions, and not, with Reagan.

On Thursday, Fred Thompson will be kicking off his campaign for the presidency in Des Moines, IA, touring through the early primary states of Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina before visiting Florida and returning to Lawrenceburg, TN for a homecoming celebration. While on this tour, Fred Thompson will be answering the tough questions, whether they come from a voter at a town hall meeting in New Hampshire or from the nation’s top journalists. However, Fred wants to make sure that you get a chance to get your questions answered as well, so we’re asking some bloggers to help us pick good questions from you. The bloggers will solicit your questions, select the best questions and send them to Fred Thompson to answer. Fred will be responding to some of your questions each day via video and posting those responses to our website.We invite you to submit a question for Fred here, and check www.imwithfred.com often for Fred’s dispatches from the road.

Sounds like a great idea to me – and I bet the questions will be more meaningful than the ones thrown out by the “professionals” on the televised debates.

Getting in Shape

So Fred’s getting fit for the race.

I’d love to see a candidate snub the whole”image” thing…

September 6

Is the day. I hope there’s no more stalling and that 9/6 is the “all in” day for Fred. It’s time for him to enter the fray. I want to hear some substance.

Maybe some actual news…

Thompson to announce today…. or is he announcing that he’s announcing? Stay tuned.

Fred says complaints about his wife should be directed at him.

Byron York reports. Good for him. A quick check of the history books shows that first ladies are a pretty mixed bag. Would Abraham Lincoln have been President if he had to answer for Mary Todd?

Thompson also mentions his theory as to why the press is so interested in his wife:

“A few moments later, Thompson addressed reports, like the one in the Post and another in Newsweek, that looked into his wife’s life before meeting Thompson. “I think the problem is that Jeri refuses to go out in public and behave like a candidate’s wife before I’m a candidate,” Thompson said.”

Yeah, I’m having that same problem with this blog. Not much else to talk about, Fred, till you officially throw your hat in the ring.

Thompson’s Abortion Record…
