Tommy Thompson

UNDATED (WSAU) We could learn more about Tommy Thompson's political future this week. He's scheduled to give a speech on Thursday at the Wisconsin Forward Award luncheon. It's an award that honors excellence in business management.

Thompson said last year that he 'thinks he has one good campaign left in him'. He'd publicly said he was considering getting into the Governor's race. Since then there's been a Rasmussen poll suggesting Thompson would beat Russ Feingold for Senate. GOP leaders have been trying to recruit candidates in races that are competitive, and Thompson's name has come up repeatedly.

When asked about running for public office again, Thompson has said he's discussing his options with his family.
