Who cares where or how it’s past time to commit....

This is either the best gamesmanship in politics or a missed opportunity....

Time will tell....

With the - I dunno, what's it been? - about 37 staff members jumping ship before he even got the announcement out, countly distinctly less excited than I would have been a couple months ago.

Folks, I'm not elated with he existing GOP field either. But if Thompson can manage a non-campaign no better than this, how the hell are we expecting him to competently battle the most motivated and well-funded Democrat smear machine in our lifetimes?

It's getting pretty late in the game. We need less people consuming money and political oxygen in this primary now, not more.

Thompson announces candidacy on Leno

4 minutes ago

DES MOINES, Iowa - Fred Thompson — veteran actor, former Republican senator — launched his bid for the presidency Hollywood style. "I'm running for president of the United States," Thompson told Jay Leno in a taped appearance on NBC's "Tonight Show" airing Wednesday.

But, who cares how he did it; he did it. YAY!!

FT will get the Republican nomination, so the real question is who will be his running mate. That may determine the outcome of the election.
