Fred Thompson Hits The Nets!

No, not to announce he's running for president. So calm down.

But National Review's Jim Geraghty notes that Thompson's video response to liberal filmmaker Michael Moore's debate challenge has racked up 156,069 views in less than eight hours.

Details on why Thompson and Moore are going at each other can be found here and here. In a nutshell, the dust-up has to do with Moore's new documentary about health care and whether Thompson or Moore love Fidel Castro most (both say the other).

The beef between the two men is probably real, but political bloggers maybe can't help but wonder if the video is Thompson's way of dipping his pinky toe in the waters, as it were.
