Fred Thompson's campaign will announce this morning their "National Campaign Leadership Team."
Among the four chairs -- former Sen. George Allen (Va.).The one-time presidential hopeful has had warm things to say about Thompson since the Tennessean first considered a bid this summer, and recently had his former colleague on while guest-hosting a radio show in Richmond.
It's fitting that Allen would back Thompson. They occupy much of the same space politically -- folksy Southern mainstream conservative -- and Fred got in the race in no small part because Allen's absence created a vacuum for a candidate with such qualities.
Thompson's other national chairs are already-announced supporters: former Sen. Howard Baker, former Sen. Spencer Abraham and Liz Cheney.
I can tell where this is going right now - in the macaca history books....
