Fred Thompson, probably looking to gain a bit of traction in Iowa, kept up his attacks on Mike Huckabee today. From CBS News:

Responding to news that Huckabee once advocated isolating AIDS patients, Thompson said today in Miami:

"[AIDS] is something that has more to do with human behavior, and I'm not sure isolation, or quarantine, would be of major assistance in that regard," Thompson said. "I have no idea what was in his mind when he said that."

On Cuba, Thompson criticized Huckabee, who in 2002 asked President Bush to lift the embargo against that country, saying it "has not helped the people of Cuba."

"He thinks we should lift the embargo against Castro. I disagree with that," Thompson said today at the Bay of Pigs Museum in Miami. "I think it raises issues when politicians change their views on a dime to appeal to a particular group of people right before an election."
