e49 launches ImWithFred.com

Ex-Sen. Fred Thompson (R-TN) has quickly and quietly recruited talent for his Web team over the past few weeks while he prepared for his WH '08 campaign. He premiered his exploratory Web site, www.ImWithFred.com, live last night on Fox News Channel.

Blaise Hazelwood of iWebStrategies, said she'll be working under Turk's direction on the Web site and blog in an effort that "is going to be different from any other Republican or Democrat site that's out there right now." Hazelwood was Political Director at the RNC in both 2000 and 2004 during the construction of the Voter Vault.

Hazelwood will work closely with Ken Smith, chief strategist for Episode 49 and Todd Zeigler of the Bivings Group. Smith's firm does programming development and builds databases and his Web sites' client list includes the RNC and NRSC. A former intern for Thompson, Zeigler said his firm will do some design, strategy and build tools for the Web site. Hazelwood, Smith and Blaze have already worked together on other political projects including Web outreach for Rep. Bobby Jindal's bid for Louisiana Governor this cycle.
