"Their appreciation of him stems not from his eight years as a U.S. senator from Tennessee but from his role as Manhattan district attorney on the TV series " Law & Order."

Well, that's a slap in the face. LOL

"Thompson's critics assert that, bored with his lucrative career as an actor, he is enjoying the 15 minutes of fame created by a chance TV interview and will not run..."

Sounds like someone on this board...

I'm in for Fred, all the way. I am a bit concerned about T.Thompson throwing his hat in the ring, and I do think the name confusion will draw some away from who they thought is the REAL Thompson. I have to wonder why T.T. did it, and who put him up to it. Who is T.T. aligned with?

:O)

Tommy Thompson is a STALKING HORSE!!

Tommy Thompson let the media know he was interested in running well before Fred did. He has been stumping in Iowa for that purpose. Tommy's name has shown up in a number of polls but with very little support.

wow...that sounds like a great ticket. Or how about Fred Thompson and Condie Rice?
