Blackburn: Will "Probably" Support Romney
A.C. at Volunteer Voters asked yesterday who would swoop in and pick up the pieces of the Fred Thompson campaign. After all, it isn't like this is Mike Gravel or Chris Dodd's campaign here. There is some value left in those who were with Fred.
One answer that was obvious to many already seems to have come to the forefront. Rep. Marsha Blackburn told the Washington Times that she will "probably return to supporting Mitt Romney."
Not really a surprise there. I suspect that Congressman Duncan will make a similar announcement within the next few days.
The same article also quotes sources that indicate that many of Thompson's staffers might be joining up with McCain. Given the level of disorganization and vision in the Thompson campaign, that might shore things up for Romney. (Just kidding, folks.)
