Thompson Angling For VP Nod?

Fox News' Special Report reported Fred Thompson "went directly from his third place showing in South Carolina back home to Tennessee to visiting his ailing mom, who is in her 90s. No word on when he will say to his supporters and the country whether he will continue his campaign. He said he will go back and think about it and hasn't indicated whether he will withdraw or stay in the race." Aides say he does have a little bit of money should he decide to do that." Rich Galen, one of Thompson's strategists, "suggested Thompson would make a nice vice presidential pick because he could fill some of the holes in terms of the political portfolio of each of the other candidates. The vice-presidency has been something that Fred Thompson was considering all along."


McCain/Thompson

3. You've never seen a movie or TV show "Starring Fred Thompson," have you?
He's a supporting player. Or bit player. Or maybe just an extra.

Actually, Fred Thompson will be happy just to fetch you coffee on the set if you need it. Just let him catch up on his sleep first....

4. Well....
McCain/Thompson wouldn't live half-way through their first term. Guess that means Pelosi would become President:toast:
