I hope his mother recovers.

At the end of the day, that’s what’s important.

For once, a politian who says he wants to “spend more time with his family” who I actually believe.

Fred’s mother is recovering, so I don’t think she’s going to be a factor.

That’s a cheap and low class shot, Resty.

Frankly, I am sick of the GOP and where it is heading. Fred Thompson should have cleaned those bozo’s clocks tonight in S.C.

I fear for the Republic

I’ll be praying for his mother, and that God will give him wisdom in where to go from here.

I hope he goes on and shows everybody what a real conservative looks like, but I want him to do what’s best for him and his family as well.

Prayers for his mom and also that he stays in the race. America needs Fred Thompson, there is no other to vote for.

I don’t think anyone’s dropping out. I do think Fred can win Texas. He’s the closest thing to a real Texan that Tennessee’s ever seen.

Prayers out for Fred and his family.

As I understood his speech (and I thought it was a concession speech), he acknowleged everyone in the campaign and his constituents. Then he talked about his son and grandson being with him, and they were headed to Tennessee right after his speech to visit with his mom in the hospital.

He never spoke about her condition.

Fred Thompson isn't formally out yet but he is as good as gone. Thanks for trying, Fred. I had not heard that his mother is in the hospital, only that he intended to visit her in Tennessee.

Fred can't say the things he has said and then do a 180 and support McCain. How anybody can be concerned about illegal immigration, which Fred says he is, and still vote for McCain - or Huckabee - well, I can't understand that at all. And beyond immigration and border security, there are many other issues where McCain fails the conservative, America first test. So no, no way can Fred endorse McCain iunless he has been lying to us all along and has been in the race only to help McCain.

Romney is the only sensible, America first choice for Fred to send support to. Fred says it's all about what's good for America and his daughter, etc. So we shall see if he has been BS'ing us all along or not.

Frankly, and I say this with regret, it's difficult to see the case for him remaining in the race.

To keep the Arkansas snake-charmer from winning is one good reason.

Juan Williams was a complete and utter sleazebag this sunday when he did not mention the reason Thompson did not go to Florida. Then again what else from an NPR zombie.

Thompson did not an issue of this but he is doing what NORMAL people do outside the beltway, family comes first.

Then again when did ANYONE at NPR know anything about a NORMAL family.
