WASHINGTON — Republican Sen. John McCain will file paperwork with the Federal Election Commission on Thursday to create a presidential exploratory committee, his aides said Wednesday. Former Health and Human Services Secretary Tommy Thompson, and a former governor of Wisconsin, also announced plans to form a committee. "I intend to do so after the first of the year," Thompson said. The Arizona senator also launched a Web site — www.exploremccain.com — that allows supporters to donate and join his effort. His speech before the conservative group GOPAC on Thursday will be broadcast on the site. The move was expected — the senator discussed it Sunday on national television. McCain insists he won't make a final decision about running for president until after the Christmas holidays.

LOL!!
You know what's really pathtic though? That the person the GOP base is most energized to defeat in '08 isn't a Democrat. It's John McMaverick. Says a lot about the character of this guy that he's our public enemy number one.
