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???


Trafficant is balding and thinning. Forget him.
