McLean, VA - Senator Fred Thompson today issued the following statement about his campaign for President:
"Today I have withdrawn my candidacy for President of the United States. I hope that my country and my party have benefited from our having made this effort. Jeri and I will always be grateful for the encouragement and friendship of so many wonderful people."
Utterly depressing.
Well now I guess I’ll be supporting Romney. I wish I could stay home, but the troops are in harms way. No way am I letting a Rat get command of our brave soldiers.
I just wish I had known last night. The money I sent to Fred last night would have gone to Free Republic instead.
Bummed for our country.
Same here. I don't think there are any worth endorsing, or even voting for at this point.....
“How about making life hard for democrats?”
He is talking about democrats.
You know, the 4 RINO’s and the surrender monkey.
Phil Gramm was my guy too.
EXACTLY!
And what does it say to the RNC? That it doesn’t matter who they support, we’ll still line up and vote for the zombie, “just because they aren’t __________ “.
It tells them that we have no principles, and we’ll accept whatever we’re handed. F that and F the RNC. I’m done.
“Doesn’t matter if McCain is a total RINO - who else are they going to vote for!? HAHAHAHAHAHHA - suckers!”
Romney is a rat; he’s just not as honest as Obama.
(Look at his lifetime liberalism.)
I will be writing in Fred.
I will not vote for any of the RINOS, and I will openly discourage others from voting.
Okay appeaser. Just another easy road for you.
Thanks. I’m so used to finding Fred info to post every day.
“It’s about the country.”
I was one of those who was saying Fred did not get in too late, and it was a calculated move that would benefit him.
I was wrong. He should have got in early. Missing his first debate for national TV appearance is what killed his chances, in my opinion.
That’s unfortunate.
“It’s about the country.”
AMEN!
That's what Fred was about.
I had already decided that if Fred bows out I am STILL writing his name in on Super Tuesday. I won’t give those other guys my primary vote. And like a lot of other Fredites, I will be voting for Romney over McCain and the other joker.
We heard you the first time.
Me neither jb. My vote must be earned at this point.
So far, I'm vastly unimpressed.

OK, OK — we heard you the first two times.
Thanks to the two of you for helping to rally the Fredheads on FR. We didn't win this one, but we have to stay strong in the fight for conservative principles.
You're a grade 'A' assclown that's for damn sure! I appease no one. Duncan Hunter was my choice. You think I am happy with how things are turning out! But I'll be damned if I will allow a Democrat into the Whitehouse... What part of that does your whiny little "take my ball home and cry" head not understand?
Were you an only child... you act like one. Take your ball and go hide scared little boy/girl/it.
