One reporter, I know this is unusual, rather extraordinary, but he actually checked with the Thomspon campaign. And you know what? He got a very, very strong denial complete with a campaign schedule. It’s not that it isn’t possible Thompson might leave the race but there is no hard evidence he will and running a story like that the day of the caucus, well, some think is like calling the election while voters are still at the polls. Now it would have be different if there was a source other than an unnamed Republican “close” to Thompson. Funny how these last minute stories always involve Republicans, isn’t it? UPDATE: Thompson debunks it directly.
