| Fred Thompson Gets Warm Welcome Before Huge Crowd In Lawrenceburg Posted on September 15, 2007 Fred Thompson has made his hometown of Lawrenceburg the site for his first public appearance in Tennessee since announcing his bid for the presidency. An excited crowd packed into the town square to cheer on Mr. Thompson, who graduated from high school here and later returned to launch his legal and political careers. John Rich of the country band Big and Rich warmed up the crowd with songs peppered with Thompson references. He replaced the refrain of a Johnny Cash song with the words: “Fred walks the line.” Thompson was introduced by his political mentor, former Senate Majority Leader Howard Baker. |
