This is a non-story.

I heard that there are a few politicos in Massachusetts who are going to support Romney. I guess that must be devastating news for the Thompson Campaign. /s

I heard the same thing. Thompson is delaying because of all the Mass. guys in Romney’s tent. He is nail biting.

yep, the real story here is why on earth was a congresswoman from Fred’s home state who has been his personal friend for decades even supporting Mitt Romney.

This is just a small hint of the uphill battle that he will have to go through because of his late entry. Wait till he gets to Iowa and new hampshire and finds that most party officials and grassroots activists there are already committed to another campaign. It will take a lot of arm twisting to get all those folks to switch allegiances like Blackburn did.
