January 23, 2008Fred Thompson dropped out of the race for the Republican nomination yesterday.
Giuliani is out of money and if he doesn’t win Florida next week, he will probably follow Thompson’s lead.

Ron Paul has rising support, money in the bank, and more than 10,000 precinct captains working to get him elected.
