Tennessee's GOP Chairwoman Says Don't Count Thompson Out
Fred Thompson is noticably absent from the campaign trail this week.
After finishing third in the South Carolina primary over the weekend... Many wonder if he may drop out of the race before Tennessee and Georgia vote.
But Tennessee Republican Party Chairwoman Robin Smith says his Carolina finish still gives Thompson prominence, and he shouldn't be ruled out just yet.
Smith says, "I think people are starting to ask the question, 'Is he a viable candidate?' I think that's the big question, and we'll have to wait for a couple more days I'm sure."
Smith says the deciding factor will likely come down to how much money the Thompson campaign can raise for a last minute push in Florida.

Can't Wait Till February 5th
Can't wait to cast my vote for Fred Thompson. Lot's of people like Thompson the best, but they wonder if a vote for him is a wasted vote. I'm voting my opinion on Feb. 5th of the best candidate for the Presidency, regardless of who the media thinks is a "viable" candidate. We decide who is viable!
