Via The American Mind, we get this news: Thompson tests waters for presidential campaign:
Tommy G. Thompson has formed a 2008 presidential exploratory committee and brought on political advisers in Iowa as he considers a possible run for the White House.
Thompson, 65, a Republican, is the former governor of Wisconsin and U.S. Health and Human Services Department secretary. He was governor from 1987 to 2001, longer than anyone in state history, and led HHS during President Bush’s first term, from 2001 to 2005. A lawyer and business consultant, Thompson has a hand in several private-sector pursuits, many in health care.
I’d vote for him, but I’m not sure I’d send him money or volunteer for him.
After all, he’s not my ideal Thompson.
