Fred Thompson Interview

This one, with the Hoover Institution's Peter Robinson, is a little more substantive than his appearance on Leno:

The more I hear, the more I like.

As an aside, I should mention that in last week's GOP debate, Rudy Giuliani impressed the heck out of me with his answer on health insurance, namely, that a major part of the problem is the disconnect between the individual and the costs of their health care, thanks to government and employers being intermediaries in how most of us pay for health insurance. He also made the critical point that unlike homeowner's insurance or car insurance, which don't cover routine expenses like oil changes, most health "insurance" policies are required to cover such expenses (mostly due to government mandates), and this drives up the cost of health care for everyone. Although I've been critical of Giuliani, and still don't think he'll win the nomination, I look forward to seeing Rudy and Fred battle it out in the debates, as I think that will be great for substantive discussion of the issues.
