Fred Thompson - Word is out..

The word is out that Thompson is going to concede on Monday. He had a poor showing in South Carolina. Listening to his speech last night after enough of the results had come in was almost painful. In my humble estimation his strategy to wait until late in the cycle doomed him from the start. Everyone else had already courted the press, courted the strong worker bees and donors in the Republican Party and it was difficult for him to get a toe hold.

We'll see if rumors zinging around the Internet are true re: Monday's concession. Without a win in South Carolina he'd have to have more money than Romney to be viable.
