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.

Doesn't matter! He's got hair that attracts as much attention as
Blago. When you see Trafficant on TV, you can't take your eyes off
his carpet. What a sight to behold!

Blago's hair just makes people jealous, Trafficant's makes 'em feel
better about themselves. "Geez, if that guy can get elected lookin'
like that, I can be a world famous race car driver by next week!!!"
