WASHINGTON Republican presidential hopeful Fred Thompson will travel to New Hampshire on Monday to file papers that declare entrance into the state's primary election, FOX News has learned exclusively, despite reports that he had considered sending a surrogate to the state to do so.

Ping!!!
(last night)
The man is one of few that conservatives can support and I see so many articles trying to make him seem lazy when he is in fact smart not to have entered the primary race.
If he wins, he was smart...if he doesn't win, then it was a mistake.
Fred should spend time in NH, meeting voters and getting coverage from local news outlets. This is really vital, and five minutes signing up for the primary won’t do it. There’s too much at stake here.
When you only have a handful of staffers in South Carolina, a state you absolutely have to have, then there is real reason to be concerned about his “energy.” He should have had this stuff up and running months ago.
So far, Mitt has IA, NH, and probably MI; Rudy has FL, by far. Of the early primaries, only SC is up for grabs, and it's a fight. Fred should already have buried Mitt and Rudy there, but he hasn't. Mark my words, once you get to Super Tuesday, it's all Rudy---NY, CT, NJ, PA---huge delegate counts there. McCain might win AZ, and VA is up for grabs, but again, all Rudy has to do is win some #2s and he still gets delegates.

Off topic to LS: I just looked at your personal page and see you are one of the authors of “A Patriot’s History of the United States.” I have a copy of this book and it is great. I didn’t realize you were a Freeper. Congrats on a great job with that book.
I would love to see skip NH and Iowa and win. I’m sooo tired of hearing how important they are!
(I know: how did I stop at only 50?)
TOP 50.
Thanks. Just sent my latest book to the editor, “Fifty Liberal Lies of History,” due out next year.
