A Look Back at Thompson's 2007
Email This

In May, former Sen. Fred Thompson, R-Tenn., threw his hat into the crowded presidential race, adding a big name to the mix and causing excitement among many Republican voters. With the New Year beginning tomorrow and the Iowa caucuses on Thursday, it seems an appropriate time to look back on Thompson's 2007 and to look at what 2008 might bring.
