wish i could vote for this fine fellow

Me too. I don't agree with Traficant on everything and probably even agree with the Republican candidate on more issues but in this case, I would have to make an exception. I LOVE the way Traficant has stirred things up in the normally boring Congress. He is the exact opposite of the typical "sosh" type who runs for office and that counts for a lot. Plus I do like a lot of what he says. Can you imagine the commotion Traficant would stir up again if he gets back into Congress? And there is a GOOD chance of this. First of all, I think Traficant will WIN the Congressional election. On top of that, if he ever gets a GOOD appeals attorney, I am sure his case would be overturned on appeal. Judge Wells, by her OWN ADMISSION, stated that she had a CONFLICT OF INTEREST in that case.

Traficant will win. And, he'll serve two purposes. First, he's P.O.ed at the democrats so he will vote against them at most every turn. Second, any attention drawn to him is automatically drawn to N.J. senator Torricelli (spelling?) who has basically committed the same crime but has walked. This double standard will hurt not only Torricelli but the democrat party as a whole.
