FRED THOMPSON

Fred Is Out

I'm hearing secondhand from an employee of the campaign that Fred Thompson is departing the race.

And now, confirmation:

Statement from Sen. Fred Thompson

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"Today I have withdrawn my candidacy for President of the United States.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."
