Hmm...

He'd better just refer to himself as "Jack for US Senate".

On another note, why is it that millionares are so keen to run for Senate???

Party operatives like recruiting millionares because they can self-finance their campaigns. Once a self-financed millionare is sworn in as Senator, he/she could pass bills that would benefit his/her business.

Maybe because they can afford to. It ain't cheap to run campaigns anymore for Fed offices. Watch for the media to complain once REPUBLICANS run and elect multi-millionaires for Senate seats without prior political office, but it was NEVER a problem when the 'Rats bought a string of Senate seats from Kohl to Corzine to Clinton, et al...
