Couldn’t Have Been Much of a Party

…if I wasn’t invited.

Former U.S. senator and actor Fred Thompson spent part of his Gulf Coast vacation Thursday night in Pensacola garnering political support for a potential presidential run.
Thompson had a private dinner with local supporters at the Fish House restaurant, and then he spent some time meeting and greeting locals.
He said the informal dinner was “testing the waters” and he plans to announce “in the not too distant future” whether he’ll run for president.
“People are looking for a new direction for the country,” Thompson said. “I will talk straight to them and not be afraid to have a vision for the future.”

   They didn’t want you to upstage Fred’s wife, dear.

   Hmmm.
   I think Fred better get off his fat butt and start really campaigning or else I and everyone else will simply write him off.
   It’s past time already.

   “…start really campaigning…”
   Not me, man. I’m already sick of the rest of them and the fact that Fred!’s not over exposed yet is great.
