When will he announce? Mickey Kaus says May 4 (you have to scroll up a little to see the post - we've never figured out his permalink system), but Rich Lowry says that's wrong and it's going to be later. He needs to get around to it. If he drags this out much longer, we're worried that people will begin to think this is a vanity exercise.
On the other hand, Steve Hayes returned to the Weekly Standard with an interview that pretty much explains why it's impossible to think bad things about Thompson.

nicely put.
IMO:
does fred have ANY executive experience? has he led any significant enterprise? he's never been a governor or a military officer or a corporate manager.
his rhetoric is GREAT. but we're at war.
rudy, mitt and richardson are the only guys in the race with substantial exec exp.
i think exec exp counts more than rhetoric.
sure: winning the nomination and the election takes great exec ability. but carter proved: NOT ENOUGH.
remember: reagan has been a gov an a leader of the conservatives for decades and had run and lost beofre running and winning in 1980.
fred doesn't compare.
fred's senate record is weak, too.
the only way i could vote for fred is if he were to run against a dem.
unless ww4 ends.
then i could vote for him in the primary.
