Fred Thompson has dropped out of the race for president. He was boring, no one knew what on earth he believed in and I’m glad he’s gone. Now I am hoping that John Edwards stops wasting his time and drops out next.

Republican Fred Thompson, the actor-politician who attracted more attention as a potential presidential candidate than as a real one, quit the race for the White House on Tuesday after a string of poor finishes in early primary and caucus states.

“Today, I have withdrawn my candidacy for president of the United States. I hope that my country and my party have benefited from our having made this effort,” the former Tennessee senator said in a brief statement.
