NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Country singer Tim McGraw says he wants to run for office someday in his adopted home state of Tennessee _ perhaps for governor or U.S. senator _ and he's getting encouragement from a fellow Democrat, former President Clinton.

"I think he's got it," Clinton says of McGraw in an Esquire magazine story that hits newsstands Monday. "The Democrats need candidates whom people can relate to in a personal way, people who understand their lives and their concerns and share their values. And I think that's something Tim can do without even pretending."

He identified health care as his top issue, and said one of his main reasons for wanting to enter politics is Clinton, whom he calls "the best president we ever had."

If he thinks Clinton was the best president we ever had, he's too stupid to be a governor. Senator? Maybe...

If he thinks the Sinkmeister was the best President we ever had, he is too stupid to be dogcatcher.

Too bad he had to open his yap. I like his music and his wife is really hot as well as being as good a singer (if not better) than he is.

... the Louisiana native seems more interested in the governor's office. "It's more of a leadership role, and I think that's something that I'd do well," he said ...

Gee, he wants to be a leader. He thinks he will be able to lead well. Now if the "little people" will just give him a chance to lead, he's sure he'll be good at it.

What a dork!!!

"And I think that's something (relating to people) Tim can do without even pretending." I guess that's as opposed to Slick Willie actually pretending to relate?

A fellow Democrat?????

[DennisR]

That's hugh.

[DennisR]

"And I think that's something Tim can do without even pretending."

Yeah - like the rest of Democrats have to do. So why would this guy be any different?

"I think I can lead, I mean I'm a lead singer, and a lead guitarist, why not lead dipsh*t democrat?", said Tim McGraw.

Well so much for any plans for buying a Tim McGraw CD. His wife is a fox though.

Tim can do it without even pretending.

All you need to know about the Rats.

I think Teddy Roosevelt would have made a good king, not slick willie though.

Tim McGraw, I am so disappointed in you. Apparently your reasoning capabilities are not in tune with your music capabilities. Your music may be "on key", but your political views are way "off key". You're in serious "treble" now. Jump off the cleff, your base belong to us.

"His wife is a fox though."

Ya think?

"Shut up and sing" ping.
