Ablogination

It has been suggested that John Cougar Mellencamp, the well known and highly respected musician would be a good choice to run for Evan Bayh’s Senate seat.

We agree.

Everybody knows him. So name recognition is a gimme. He is a small town boy from Indiana and that state is very proud of him. He is non-incumbent, non-beltway and solidly for the average American as most of his music will easily tell you.
Sure, he has no experience in public office. But George Bush did and look what a loser he turned out to be.

This is not a bad idea if Mellencamp is interested. He is a passionate voice politically and is firm and consistent in his views.
Al Franken had no experience either and look what a great Senator he has become so quickly.

Run, Johnny. I’ll donate.
