The guest list for President Obama’s upcoming State of the Union address just got more interesting.
Yesterday, Sean Hannity said he’d be attending as a guest of Rep. Louie Gohmert. Hannity is a conservative pundit for Fox News. He’s had Gohmert, an outspoken critic of Obama, on his show a number of times. The Tyler Republican has even filled in hosting Hannity’s show on a few occasions.
Turns out, Hannity may have his own political ambitions in the Lone Star state.
“The answer is yes, I’d think about it,” Hannity said when a viewer asked via Twitter about his inclination to run for office eventually. “It would either be in Texas or Florida.” Hannity, who has indicated he’s leaving what he calls “anti-conservative” New York, later contrasted the state with Texas.
“How does Texas have a $12 billion surplus when they’re in debt up to their eyeballs in Albany?” he asked. He indicated Texas and Florida’s lack of income tax were appealing lures....

I could swear I once saw a version of the commercial where they yelled NEW JERSEY! but it must be a false memory.
I think New Jersey is funner than New York.
True. But New Jersey has Taylor Pork Roll. It’s not a total loss as a state.
No offense meant to New Jersey. It’s just a funnier state. It’s a Jersey thing.
Yes, he has. He leans towards Florida, but would strongly consider Texas. His wife has mentioned she’d like to consider Georgia (where she’s from). They’re in very early discussions about it, but won’t do anything until he fulfills his contractual obligations and his son graduates in 2016.
Ok... if peter king can be a congressman from the people’s republic of ny then Hannity can serve admirably from wherever he hangs his hat. Take boehner... an orange drunk that couldn’t survive in the real world. He is SPEAKER of the HOUSE. That is all that I am saying.
Wasn’t Levin the one telling people to boycott the address? Somebody was.
WA has no income tax but that doesn’t make it business friendly by any means.
I think I may have seen both NYC and NJ versions, too, so you aren’t imagining things.
No Republican who attends the STFU Speech is serious about stopping Soetoro.
They keep complaining that he’s become a dictator, but they keep treating him like a President.
Soetoro is abolishing Congress, persecuting Christians, funding Al Qaeda—business as usual.
just quench my curiosity, what wrong with Beck and Hannity? They are much better than some ex-Kalifornians or displaced North Eastern blue bellies.
Hannity may be the McDonald’s cheeseburger of the conservative movement, but he is kind-hearted and sincere. I support his run for office in FL. Texas can do better.
Beck, Hannity and anyone else you hear on the radio stations are owned by the big boys all have to abide by the dude. Clearchannel, sirius, etc, no matter who the channel is, they are owned by basically 3 different companies, all of whom are in agreement the tea party is evil In their case the dude wants the focus to be on side issues like abortion, terror and not why the little man (us) is always getting the shaft.
OK, I can understand that. I may not agree, but I get where your coming from.
I only ask, because when you start mentioning you have commitments until 2016, it sounds as if you're ready to do something different.
It’s certainly possible.
Sean in Florida ! Orlando! Live in Seminole County, where the republican voters are the majority! Kick out Allan Grayson.
