Headquarters To Be Based At Fall School building
A source close to the campaign planning tells WSMV that that Thompson planned to announce his candidacy on the steps of the historic Fall School Building Tuesday, but Thompson campaign officials deny that Tuesday's announcement is an official run for the White House.
The source tells WSMV report says that the Thompson campaign has obtained the lease for that building to turn it into a national campaign office.
"Everything's in place for tuesday," the source told WSMV. "There are three major events built around his announcement." But Bob Davis, the Tennessee Republican Party Chairman, and Thompson's former Chief of Staff says "There will not be an annoucement Tuesday."

Finally!
oooooh, my fingies are crossed!!
It is just a rumor at this point, but even rumors with regard to Fred seem to get headlines.
I hope this is going to be half the fun I anticipate.
Fred is going to be in New Hampshire next Thursday, so maybe he’ll make the big announcement then!
MONK I think he going do it
Becaust TNT on their website has to be announced episode part of Law and Order site
Could this be the old Al Gore office?
We’ll see
Whoa Nellie...I think this is a confused rumor- Fred WILL be in Nashville...and he’s going to get a headquarters office- but this is not The Announcment.
Stay tuned though...won’t be long now:)
I just got off the phone with a trusted friend and source very close to the Fred Thompson campaign who responded, “Absolutely, unequivocally, definitely no” when I asked if Fred would be announcing on Tuesday. He concluded, “They’re wrong. That’s not happening next week.”
well... leasing a headquarters office is solid info enough for me!
This is expected announcement of the week, seems like there’s an expected announcement every 24 hours.

With speculation running rampant across the Republican Party and hopes that a conservative savior will lead the party to victory in 2008, Fred Thompson is expected to announce his intentions to run next week. Note that his staff has denied the announcement will be an official entry into the race as a presidential candidate, but nevertheless, it is a one step closer.
Everything's in place for Tuesday," the source told WSMV. "There are three major events built around his announcement." But Bob Davis, the Tennessee Republican Party Chairman, and Thompson's former Chief of Staff says "There will not be an announcement Tuesday."So it is denied by a close advisor. But, if it is the case this story is true, Thompson will run his campaign from Nashville and announce his “intentions” on the steps of the Fall School Building.
My hunch is if this story turns out to be false, he will announce "something" around the 4th of July.
