From MSNBC
*** About to Throw His Hat into the Ring? Perhaps the most interesting release we received last night on the immigration bill was from Fred Thompson’s office. Said the candidate-in-waiting: “We should scrap this bill and the whole debate until we can convince the American people that we have secured the borders or at least have made great headway.” The simple act of sending the release signals a likelihood that Thompson is already acting like a candidate. There are now all sorts of organizational rumors floating around (from an exploratory announcement being imminent to key hires coming on board). The Thompson-for-president campaign is no longer months away -- instead think weeks, maybe days…

Coming from someone who has been very involved in the Romney machine (and feeling extreme Romney fatigue), I think he's brilliant to have stayed out of it as long as he has - he'll look like an absolutely perfect alternative to the current field when he finally comes in. I'm beyond ready for someone who says what they mean and means what they say. I'll max out for Thompson.

I should add this link too - Thompson "hearing" us:
