Well Damn! - Fred Thompson calls it quits
From
CNN/Politics:
Thompson abandons White House bid
Former Sen. Fred Thompson on Tuesday ended his run for the presidency, coming off the heels of a disappointing third-place finish in South Carolina's GOP primary and heading into the showdown state of Florida next week.
"Today I have withdrawn my candidacy for president of the United States," Thompson said in a statement.
"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."
This sucks big-time -- he was the one candidate that I liked...
He understood the nature of the government, felt that the Constitution was NOT a "living document" subject to change at whim.
Eight years of him would have gone a long way to reverse the Social Marxism that is creeping forward in this nation. Read
Gramsci if you don't believe me...
