Fred Thompson for RNC Chair ?

Hat Tip to The Griffin Room

Yesterday, I spoke extensively with a prominent (understatement) Republican strategist, and he informed me that he believes there is great interest in Sen. Fred Thompson serving as the next Chairman of the Republican National Committee. Fred is a mainstream conservative who made a lot of sense during the Republican debates. Watch for more and more chatter about this because there is a great deal of dissatisfaction with some of the other names who have been floated so far.

BTW, I attended a forum at the Harvard Kennedy School yesterday where Sen. Thompson spoke and answered questions for almost two hours. He was well received and spoke with much passion.
