Traficant To Beam Up Again?
Ex-Rep. Jim Traficant (D-OH), he of the outrageous hair and fiery floor speeches, will hold his first press conference after 7 years in federal prison, and he may just be aiming for a political comeback.
Traficant was jailed for bribery and racketeering charges in '02 and released in Sept. of this year. A spokesman said Traficant will discuss Congress, though only among other issues.
He is unlikely to announce a major political comeback just yet, however, because he hasn't decided which district he should run in if he does try to return to Congress. According to the Youngstown Vindicator, Traficant and his advisors are considering bids for Rep. Tim Ryan's (D) 17th district, which he used to represent, or Rep. Charlie Wilson's (D) adjacent 6th district.
If he succeeds in winning another tenure in Congress, just beam us up, to paraphrase his legendary capstone to every floor speech.
Hard to say
Love him or hate him, you have to admit that Traficant has always been one of the most entertaining politicians around. That's no reason to vote for him, but it's enough of a reason to hope he doesn't completely disappear from public life.
Justin- WADR(w/all due respect...)you must not live in Traficant's area. He was a mob-connected, self-corrupting 'dreck' who's representation was for and ONLY for himself.
I certainly understand you are entertained by him-I would just prefer he would go spew his vile venom elsewhere.

Great post! I?m just starting out in community management/marketing media and trying to learn how to do it well - resources like this article are incredibly helpful.
