When will he announce? Mickey Kaus says May 4 (you have to scroll up a little to see the post – we’ve never figured out his permalink system), but Rich Lowry says that’s wrong and it’s going to be later. He needs to get around to it. If he drags this out much longer, we’re worried that people will begin to think this is a vanity exercise.

You should read the whole article. There’s a gigantic list of questions and answers at the end – including a long blockquote about the clusterfuck that is the White House communications room – that basically made us want to quit school and join the Thompson campaign. If we weren’t already being thrown out for total and complete disregard for the benchmarks of being a graduate student.
