From Politico,
“It would seem so on the surface, but a Fred aide cautions that just because there are no public events doesn’t mean the candidate isn’t working hard.
Per this aide, Thompson was raising campaign cash in Texas on Wednesday and in Tennessee yesterday. He’s also holding a bevy of private meetings. And next weekend, he’ll be back on the campaign trail, doing retail in a key state.”
I had heard that he was doing fundraisers in Tennessee and Texas as you said.
Maybe the author of this piece hasn’t been paying attention.
