They better get some nurses to Minnesota, stat -- because some big time Republicans developed serious hearing problems in the Twin Cities. Former Senator Fred Thompson, MN Guv Tim Pawlenty, Rep. Adam Putman went deaf on us, when we asked 'em about Bristol Palin and her Levi guy.

Is it possible that the omnipotent courtroom show, "Law & Order," could play a role in the 2008 election? Well, kinda.
Former Senator and current actor Fred Thompson announced his plans to run for the highest office in the land. This creates a thorny problem in that Thompson appears on "Law & Order" re-runs on both cable and broadcast air -- which could cause some election law problems.
The FCC's Equal Time Rule requires stations or cable operators who air appearances of federal candidates to provide equal time to other qualified candidates -- even on shows like "Law & Order." NBC says it won't air any "Law & Order" re-runs with Thompson in them after September 1, though it says none were planned anyway.
TNT, on the other hand, tells Broadcasting & Cable it has no plans to change its schedule -- cable networks themselves don't fall under the rule. Let's hope Chuck Norris doesn't run for office -- mama can't live without her "Walker, Texas Ranger!"

Normally, presidential candidates shudder at the prospect of their pasts being laid bare, especially any past paramours with whom they were bare. Paula Jones, anyone?
Not so with Fred Thompson. The ex-Senator's numerous ex-girlfriends, which include country singer Lorrie Morgan and DC society maven Georgette Mosbacher, say they're not just going to vote for their former flame, they'll support him on his road to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. That is, once he announces, which is rumored to be imminent.
Morgan told the Times of London, "I couldn't think of a bad word to say about Fred if somebody put a gun to my head." Mosbacher calls him "a really good listener" and thinks he could beat any Democratic foe, and even sharp-penned political columnist Margaret Carlson tells the Times that Thompson is "handsome ... charming ... he sounds like a President."
Perhaps the only woman who's a little exasperated by Right Said Fred is his current (and second) wife, Jeri Kehn, who's 24 years his junior. "They just won't leave him alone," says Mrs. Thompson.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough is under fire for making a salacious on-air comment, insinuating that the wife of former Senator and "Law & Order" star Fred Thompson is a stripper. *Dun dun!*
During a discussion about strip tease and pole dancing as a form of exercise, Scarborough brought up Thompson's wife, Jeri Kehn, who is 25 years younger than Thompson, and asked "You think she works the pole?" Somewhere Don Imus is smiling!
MSNBC is sticking to their claim that the remark was not sexual in nature and merely a reference to a popular exercise routine. She looks like she works the pole to us!
