Thompson has told allies in recent days that he is exploring seriously a bid for president in 2008 in response to what he has described as strong encouragement from Republicans dissatisfied with the current slate of candidates.
Thompson said one reason he is hesitant about running is his longtime friendship with Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.). Thompson was one of only four Republican senators to endorse McCains 2000 presidential campaign and was an important ally in McCains effort to pass campaign-finance reform in 2002.
I guess that shows he is a man of character.
Thanks for proving the point.
Yeah, like I said, I’ve read your posts ALL day. But others may have not had the pleasure. Please post again. Maybe you are the one suffering from the writer’s strike! ;)
