Fred is in, in case anyone was wondering

Fred Thompson announces on the Jay Leno show. Seems appropriate. It was big, above the fold front page news in the Knoxville News Sentinel, with a huge color photo of Fred and Jay.

I predicted that Thompson would decide not to run. Looks like I was wrong. Paging Al Gore!

Some reaction.

Ah, Frederick of Hollywood - using the Tonight Show as an announcement vehicle.

What a man of the people.

Did Jay haul out the red pickup?
