Howie Carr list ping. He ran several times for office. I think one time he was doing a radio interview for WBUR
via cellphone and his car got into a fender bender.

I also think he claimed that he was an extra in the filming of “Jaws”

>>Jack E. Robinson III is a Republican politician from Massachusetts. He ran for the United States Senate in 2000 against Ted Kennedy (Democratic) and Carla Howell (Libertarian), losing to Kennedy. He ran for Secretary of the Commonwealth in 2002 losing to William F. Galvin, and for US House of Representatives in Massachusetts’s 9th district in 2006, losing to Stephen Lynch.

>>During his 2000 Senate run, Robinson’s own website published “The Robinson Report”, a report that explains every incident in his life that he thought might be fodder for attacks. The report included an ex-girlfriend’s restraining order against him (which was dropped), a drunken driving charge (also dropped after he passed a breathalyzer test), and an arrest for failing to pay a speeding ticket.
The report led to Robinson being disowned by Massachusetts Republican Governor Paul Cellucci as well as the State Republican Party.
