Doc’s Political Parlor has posted about Bill Clinton’s planned “small donor” event now scheduled during his return trip to Birmingham. It sounds eerily similar to Barack Obama’s event earlier this month where he raised an estimated $50,000. (photos from the event)

This of course while Fred Thompson prepares to participate in a private $1,000 per couple fundraising event this evening (as reported on al.com) at the Mountain Brook home of Jim Cooper, owner of Cooper Construction Company.

Blogs for Fred Thompson points out an article currently available on New York Magazine’s website about the potential Republican presidential candidate. It’s definitely going to be an interesting race, especially now that we’re a “swing state”.
