Fred Thompson on Leno tonight
I know, I know who gives a crap. This guy could be the GOP candidate and it might be interesting to see how he comes across in this setting.
Remember what Bill said:
In July 1988, he hosted then-Arkansas Gov. Bill Clinton on his show a few days after Clinton came under widespread ridicule for a boring speech at the Democratic National Convention. Clinton traded quips with Carson and played "Summertime" on the saxophone. Four years later, Clinton won the presidency.

After learning of Carson's death, Clinton said: "Those 20 minutes on 'The Tonight Show' did more for my career than speaking for two days at the Democratic National Convention

Leno ain't no Carson, but this is national exposure.

2. Since he's a longtime actor, I'm pretty sure he'll come across as avuncular, jovial, and
downright lovable. Jay will make sure of it. I haven't watched Leno in many years. His show is pure crap.
