Tommy Thompson piles in...

The GOP Presidential field is rapidly coming down to the afterthoughts and fantasists as Former Wisconsin Governor, Tommy Thompson bad hairpiece and all, jumps into the race as a "reliable conservative".
Well, thanks to George Bush the bar is set mighty low for "reliable conservatives" these days, no doubt the Former Governor will content himself with promising the vast horde of midwestern bankrupts and evictees a nice piddlin' tax cut to assuage the sudden drop in their standard of living.
Otherwise, Thompson is the sort of genial big business governor whose innovative hatred of the poor earns the usual plaudits from the perpetually amazed Time Magazine.
He might make a good VP choice if some yappy chowderhead like Gingrich catches a wave, but other than that, Thompson is a third rater in every way.
Humble Elias doesn't expect Thompson to go anywhere, he is a man of the past even among atavistic ranks of the current GOP field.
