So, is Fred Thompson doing nothing at all, or is the press just ignoring
him in droves? I suspect the latter?

Thompson just made a MAJOR move today. he's going to get the endorsement of
the religious right within the party. Its a fact that you can't get a
nomination to any office within the republican party if the religious right
is against you. I'll bet right now that his campaign takes off like a
rocket.
