DescriptionFred Thompson is on TV again, and this time he's not play-acting.

His appointment by President Bush to handle the confirmation process for a new Supreme Court justice led tongues to wag all over town about whether this was a move toward him running for governor. Could Thompson end up being Gov. Phil Bredesen's worst political nightmare come true? Or is this just a case of GOP wishful thinking?

Thompson, speaking through a local contact person, declined to comment. But Tennessee GOP Chairman Bob Davis Jr. confirmed there has been talk about Thompson running for governor.
