Fred Thompson endorses John McCain


Just the messenger. From The Trail:

Fred Thompson, the one-time Republican presidential candidate, endorsed Sen. John McCain Friday, calling on the party to “close ranks” behind the presumed nominee.

“This is no longer about past preferences or differences. It is about what is best for our country and for me that means that Republican should close ranks behind John McCain,” Thompson said in a statement reported by the Associated Press.

Thompson’s endorsement was expected. The two men were colleagues for years in the Senate and shared what associates called a friendship. But while he was in the race, Thompson had bristled at the idea that he was going to drop out and endorse McCain.

    He held out until McCain was pretty much the nominee. Good for Fred.

    I suspect Romney will endorse soon too.

    The GOP contest is over. The Dems have a few more months to go, at least.
