Speaking to reporters at the Midwest Republican Leadership Conference, former Tennessee Senator Fred Thompson told reporters he "expects to officially announce his candidacy in either September or October."
Does this mean Fred's recent pre-announcement lacks credibility? Maybe not, consider the Associated Press report on Fred's speech. According to the AP, Thompson is still expected to announce his bid early next month, saying he will "certainly be making a statement within short order."
Fred's stealth campaign needs to get its act together and give it to us straight about when Fred will announce.
Makes you wonder if everything in his life requires this much stroking.

There's nothing fishy about his statement. He simply says he'll be making a statement in short order--not that said statement will pertain to the presidential campaign or the status of his candidacy ;)
