Good for you, but seriously - why would anyone want to be associated with Traficant TODAY???? The guy is/was a crook. Granted, his wrong-doing was minimal compared to the Obama sheltered U.S. representatives and senators today.

He paid his debt. He lived to tell about it and hopefully has learned his lesson.

He at least should get a fair chance afterward.

Mostly because the guy is amusing and quite sharp. There was major misconduct and perjury at his trial. Capri Cafaro wanted his seat and what Capri wanted her daddy would get for her.

He never really was a Washington insider, Traficant was true to his roots. If you were one of his he would look out for you.

Perfect, never. The kind of guy you would have over for a beer? Yep.
