Subject: Fred Thompson quits presidential race Author: AP [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: Tue, January 22, 2008 11:41:36 Fred Thompson quits presidential race NAPLES, Fla. - Former Tennessee Sen. Fred Thompson quit the Republican presidential race on Tuesday, after a string of poor finishes in early primary and caucus states. "Today, I have withdrawn my candidacy for president of the United States. I hope that my country and my party have benefited from our having made this effort," Thompson said in a statement. Thompson's fate was sealed last Saturday in the South Carolina primary, when he finished third in a state that he had said he needed to win. In the statement, Thompson did not say whether he would endorse any of his former rivals. He was one of a handful of members of Congress who supported Arizona Sen. John McCain in 2000 in his unsuccessful race against George W. Bush for the party nomination. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
