Craig may NOT resign? Thompson (finally) IN?

Late Breaking: According to late news Tuesday, US Sen. Larry "I am not gay, I have never been gay" Craig, R-Idaho, is having second thoughts on resigning his office. Amid allegations of sexual conduct, Craig announced only days ago (Sat) that he would step down effective Sept. 30. Now, Craig may be re-thinking that decision.....no real details at this time. Stay tuned!

Former Sen. Fred Thompson has changed his plans about attending the GOP Presidential debate Wednesday - Sept. 5. Thompson will instead have some 'ads' that will run during the debate time frame and Thompson will make an appearance on the Jay Leno Tonight Show which will air later on Wednesday evening. Thompson is expected to announce his intention to seek the Presidency at midnight on Wednesday or Thursday (both days have been given)...this with a 15 minute film on his web site. The Grapevine tried to find the 'official' web site but didn't have much luck. Found numerous sites for Fred!

The GOP debate will be carried live on FOX News Wednesday eve beginning at 8:00pm CST. Check your area for channel.

Reminder: US Congressman and Presidential candidate Tom Tancredo of CO will be in Oklahoma this week-end. Trancredo will be in OKC, Tulsa, Norman and several other stops attending fund raising events that include a birthday party for State GOP Chair Gary Jones and State GOP V-Chair Cheryl Williams.

Thompson's attitude is one that he appeals to the NON-POLITICAL types. That may work for the general, but it's a mistake in the primary. Announcing on Leno during a debate is arrogant and will hurt him. Whoever is advising him better rethink how they position him with activists.
