Now, those of you who (like me) suffer from a snidge of "Fratigue™" [that's an acronym for "Fred! Fatigue--Ed.], take heart. The announcement is rumored to be subtle, quick, and in-line with a normal day of talking about where he stands on America and the issues we face as a nation.Yay if it's true!
And, it is rumored he will announce his candidacy TOMORROW.
He isn't looking for cameras and parades. He's looking to do a few things for the country that need doing, and that he thinks only a President can do.
For those of you that forgot he already said he had made his mind up, but was waiting for the right moment, consider the costs associated with running for President. Why burn up early dollars, when you can quietly go about determining if there's even an INTEREST in America in a Thompson Presidency..he has saved a lot of the former, and clearly believes there is a sufficient amount of the latter.
Expect the standard pot-shots from the media, and his opponents within the GOP.
Expect him to come out swinging at all of the above.
