He was entertaining, though. Ohmygosh, remember the ferrets-in-his-hair picture they used to post to threads about him.

The Vindicator reported that Columbiana County Republican Chairman David Johnson, who tried to defeat Traficant for years, was on hand for the event, and said the former congressman would have his support if he mounted another bid for office. "I would support (Traficant) tomorrow if he ran for Congress," Johnson told the paper.
He must know where the money is....

Unless this is a file photo, he still needs a decent hair cut.

Traficant was released Wednesday after serving just over seven years in federal custody for charges that included racketeering, obstruction of justice, tax evasion and bribery.Breath of fresh air, huh? He's a weasel, just like every Dem....

Maybe he could head the new National Conservative Party for Senate. Its a sure bet the Democrats and the GOP will have nothing to do with him. His time in jail may have transformed him into a true Conservative.

I think he is beloved by Republicans more than Democrats? Go figure? Sort of like Sen Lieberman?

If he was allowed to run, I think that he would win again.

Actually Traficant was very much of a fiscal conservative...libertarians loved him.
I’d have to study his case before I’d believe that he really did do the things he was convicted of. Call me suspicious, but I don’t trust our court system in the same way I don’t trust politicians...

fiscal conservativeSome sort of irony here....

Supposedly he stood up to Clinton and got smacked down. Clintons always keep this stuff in their back pocket.
I would take him for President over Obama, Biden or Hillary in a heartbeat.
