TPM:
Is Fred Thompson really going to quit the race before New Hampshire if he posts a weak showing in Iowa, as an anonymous adviser said this morning?
Thompson himself says it isn't happening. Here's what he had to say in an interview this morning with KCCI-TV in Des Moines:
"That is absolutely made up out of whole cloth," said the former U.S. Senator from Tennessee.
Thompson said a rival campaign was likely the source of that rumor.
"Can you imagine such a thing in politics?" he asked.
The Thompson campaign is working overtime this morning to shoot down the rumor, which has it that if Thompson folds, he'll throw his support to John McCain.
My prediction from the Iowa's results tonight: Grampa will endorse McCain..
