BUT SHE IS ALSO A LOVING MOTHER TO THEIR CHILDREN! THAT'S WHAT I SAW IN DC LAST WEEK AND I CAPTURED IT IN THIS PICTURE.

On a hot Saturday in June 2002, Fred D. Thompson married his second wife, Jeri Kehn, in an unventilated Congregational church in her home town of Naperville, Ill. Kehn, in a Valentino gown, was a 35-year-old media consultant for a Washington law firm; Thompson, a 59-year-old U.S. senator from Tennessee.
"I think he will be a calming influence, and she will be good for him," Kehn's mother, Vicki Keller, said at the time.
It was a triumphal return for Kehn, who had left Naperville for college and spent much of her 20s biding her time in Nashville without a clear career path, living with a boyfriend whose main claim to fame was getting arrested in Red Square for unfurling a pizza-parlor banner in the last days of the Cold War. Kehn left three court judgments behind her in Nashville, one of which remains unpaid today, and a court twice garnished her wages.
But after meeting Fred Thompson, Kehn began establishing herself in Washington Republican circles, and marriage more than consolidated her place in the city. Today, Jeri Thompson, 40, has emerged as a driving and at times divisive force within the presidential campaign her husband is preparing to launch, one that could make her the nation's youngest first lady since Jacqueline Kennedy.
In the nascent Thompson campaign -- anticipated with high hopes by many conservatives unsatisfied with the current crop of GOP candidates -- Jeri Thompson plays a role arguably as influential as those of two better-known spouses of Democratic candidates, Bill Clinton and Elizabeth Edwards. She helps shape her husband's conservative message and image, has been a strong voice urging him to run and recently helped instigate a shake-up that pushed aside Thompson's first campaign manager and his research director.

Compare Jeri’s class with that disgusting, social climbing, coal cracker whore that is married to Rudy sometime. Fred is a lucky man, IMHO.
I enjoyed the article. It was informative...they did some digging! IMO overall it was positive compared to many MSM hatchet jobs.
Hillary must have cleavage envy ;)
I think you'll see more articles with this included to see if it sticks to the wall...
Jeri is a hottie. SPANK! Hillary, in her prime, never made it to luke-y.
What hypocrisy by the Washington Compost!
Wow - Thompson's wife had a boyfriend, and probably had sex before marriage!
That is the dark, detestable, awful sin they cast upon her in the opening of this hit piece.
In 1991 - the Washington Compost went AFTER anyone who even REMOTELY pointed out Hillary Rob'em Clinton's suitcase history of unbelievable lawbreaking, intimidation, malfeasance, and illegal acts.
Jeri vs sHillary.......2012?
Classy post.
More pictures please..let’s make Jeri the pinup girl for this election.
Jeri in 0016.
Only the Beautiful People have trophy mates. The fact that the Left keeps regurgitating this story in various forms indicates how much Thompson worries them
They set the tone quickly: Fred and Jeri married in an “unventilated” church. You KNOW you’re reading a hit piece.
Then the linked site has pdf’s for her car accident and a medical bill; somebody’s really digging desperately.
Conclusion: They fear the Fred. :)
I hope that isn't an accurate description of Rudy's wife. If so, that description fits enough folks that Rudy should have this election in the bag.
Heh. Reminds me of a common Freeper response to Ron Paul. =]
Comment:
As I have said before there is no limit on how low the WAPO will go to mar a candidate and his spouse.
The muckdiving of the WAPO seems to fit their Democrat biased sewer mentality very well.
The liberal media has no ethical rules and it really permeates throughout the entire country.
Biggest load of huey I've read in the mainstream anti-Republican press since .... yesterday.
Seriously, I'M "directly familiar with the campaign" for heavens sake.
Find me ONE, just one credible source, one FACT which validates this "wife running the Thompson campaign" baloney.
There are none. This is all innuendo, antedoctal claptrap from a slanted reporter who is trying to smear a GOP candidate ahead of his likely announcement for Prez.
“In 1991 - the Washington Compost went AFTER anyone who even REMOTELY pointed out Hillary Rob’em Clinton’s suitcase history of unbelievable lawbreaking, intimidation, malfeasance, and illegal acts.”
The absolutely silver lining to this hitpiece on Jeri is that it opens up Hillary’s sordid affairs to scrutiny.
