Default Look out Blago!!!


Trafficant may be throwing his hair back into the ring!

"Beamed out of Congress and imprisoned seven years ago following his
conviction on federal corruption charges, ex-Rep. Jim Traficant (D-OH)
is weighing a political comeback," reports CQ Politics.

"Traficant, who was widely known during his House tenure (1985-2002)
for his bombastic populism and for his signature 'Beam me up!'
expression of indignation against the government, said at a press
conference Thursday that he would distribute nominating petitions in
three congressional districts to gauge support for a 2010 House bid."

Said Traficant: "I will assess my strengths and make a determination
probably by the end of January."


Who will have the biggest hair attraction if Trafficant revives???
