TOMMY THOMPSON, VIRGINIA REPUBLICAN, ENTERS PRESIDENTIAL RACE

A Milwaukeeworld Scoop!
According to documents filed with the Federal Election Commission late on December 13th, 2006, Tommy G. Thompson of "Alexandria, Virginia, 22320" has registered a Presidential Campaign Exploratory Committee.
Thompson said in November he was considering such a move. So far there are no reports of donations to the committee, or any expenditures it might have undertaken such as, say, a Wisconsin address for the Badger State's #1 Booster.
The folks at the D.C. website Wonkette were quick to jump on the Thompson announcement, and you should read the things people say about Wisconsin's beloved ex-governor. It's stuff the likes of which you are not going to get from Thompson-fearing Wisconsin journalists and bloggers.

Michael, I don't think there is such a thing as a Tommy Thompson fearing blogger from either side. Want to break up a room full of Wisconsin bloggers? Tell a Tommy Thompson joke.
