Tuesday, May 1:

• EXCLUSIVE! Former Tennessee Senator Fred Thompson sits down with us tonight. Will he or won't he enter the 2008 presidential race?

[Inspectorette]

Please, please, please, Fred, RUN!!!!

[Politicalmom]

He looks GOOD.

[Shortstop7]

I like that comment too....

[Politicalmom]

“hitch up our britches”

I LOVE this man.

[The Pack Knight]

"If you want to avoid criticism, you ought to find another line of work." (paraphrase)

That's what I like to hear.

[Inspectorette]

He does look good - more vigorous than he has lately. I think he must be buoyed by the huge groundswell of support for him to be our next POTUS!

[RKBA Democrat]

“I like Sean but for a “Conservative he seems to elevate some politicians to the level of conservative when they aren’t (Arnold being case in point,)”

He’s a nice enough fellow for talk radio. But when it comes to the GOP, he’d carry the water for Sen. Clinton if she had an (R) behind her name.

[Shortstop7]

He’s a straight talker for sure.

[RKBA Democrat]

“As opposed to the Democrats, who are ONLY motivated when they are voting against something.”

Depends on the Democrat.

[don-o]

I can’t help wondering if Hannity’s going to get to a serious question.

I know. One just keeps hoping and hoping

[Inspectorette]

I like Sean too, but he’s been a Rudy fan for quite a while. Wonder what he’s going to do when Fred announces.

[Shortstop7]

I wonder that too.....I think he’ll go with Fred when he sees the huge support for Fred.

[Laverne]

So far Fred is great, talking about Harry the loser Reid and just stream of consciousness on the ME threat.

[Fudd Fan]

Fred talks and speaks just like my dad... I’ll have to tell dad! lol

[Right_in_Virginia]

“Stabilizing the Middle East is the number one priority of this century.”

I like that perspective.

[redgirlinabluestate]

Will you post a live thread for Mitt's appearance on Jay Leno's Tonight Show tomorrow night, Cheyenne? j/k

Anyway, Fred's doing well. He's my #2 also.

[50mm]

"If you want to avoid criticism, you ought to find another line of work."

Did you miss his slam at the Republicans dirt-sniffing in Tennessee? He said that he expected the dirt-sniffing, but was surprised that it wasn't the democrats doing the sniffing. Was he talking about Rudy and/or McCain?

[Inspectorette]

Fred definitely gets it - he knows what our greatest threat is!

[RKBA Democrat]

“Wonder what he’s going to do when Fred announces.”

Lick his finger, note the hurricane strength winds blowing in Sen. Thompson’s wake, and then get behind him in short order.

[spectre]

"We've got to enforce our Borders..We have Al Quida (sp)..and we've got to enforce our borders"..

Sean quickly changes the subject to Fred's physical condition.
