For general discussion and debate. Possible talking point: Thompson drops presidential bid.

What does this mean for the race? Who benefits and who loses? Who will Fred endorse, if anyone?

As you might imagine, the drivebys think he'll support -- wait for it! -- McCain:

In the statement, Thompson did not say whether he would endorse any of his former rivals. He was one of a handful of members of Congress who supported Arizona Sen. John McCain in 2000 in his unsuccessful race against George W. Bush for the party nomination.

Thoughts?
