Replies to Comment # 1. Dressed dapperly as usual, in a gray pin-stripe suit, a white shirt with French cuffs, and a maroon tie, Fred Thompson looked older, more sophisticated than when he first became famous as minority counsel to the Ervin committee hearings on Watergate in 1973. The then-unknown thirty-year-old Nashville attorney had grown up in a small, rural Tennessee town. The son of a used-car dealer, he had worked his way through college and law school. Sporting fashionable long sideburns, Thompson looked then more rough-hewn than he was. He had been selected by Howard Baker, the Tennessee senator and ranking Republican on the Ervin committee, over legal lions who considered themselves far better qualified for the job. But as the gruff but alert young attorney questioned witnesses, he established himself as no one to be fooled with.
