Thompson drops out of GOP presidential race

"Today I have withdrawn my candidacy for President of the United States. I hope that my country and my party have benefited from our having made this effort. Jeri and I will always be grateful for the encouragement and friendship of so many wonderful people."

Fred Thompson didn't put up much of a fight, didn't post the numbers that he needed, and it generally felt like he was giving a half assed attempt at running for President.

I don't know if he was hoping that just name recognition would get him votes or propel him into the running, but his attempts were too little, too late.
