Thompson is a candidate I like, and I'm hoping that the cancer is expunged from his body. My hunch is that he'll be fine.
UPDATE 9:00am CDT: The Fox News Channel web site has a story on its web site about Thompson's announcement:
Former Tennessee Republican Sen. Fred Thompson says he's in remission from lymphoma.
Thompson, who is considering a run for the White House in 2008, says the illness is treatable.
"I have had no illness from it, or even any symptoms. My life expectancy should not be affected. I am in remission, and it is very treatable with drugs if treatment is needed in the future—and with no debilitating side effects," Thompson said.
Thompson, a "Law and Order" actor, was diagnosed with indolent lymphoma about two and a half years ago after a routine physical.
