This may be old news, but, I just ran across this article.

It was reported recently that country music singer Hank Williams Jr. plans to run for a U.S. Senate seat in Tennessee in 2012 -- the next time a Senate seat is up in the state. An intriguing notion to say the least, but no announcement has been made yet, according to Williams's publicist.

It was not that long ago that Senate challengers were not running publicly 18 months before the election. In Florida it is 16 months till our primary, let us have some peace.

The filing deadline is in 11 1/2 months, but rumored serious candidacies often pop up well ahead of time. It’s largely because of the absurd amounts of money required to run a first-rate campaign and having to lay the groundwork. I think part of this Williams rumor had to do with Corker’s subpar performance in the ‘06 race, but the Democrats now have been almost completely wiped out in TN as a viable opposition. Yes, indeed, it seems as though we’ve reached the perpetual election cycle.

Nugent lives in Michigan.

Nope, in Texas, for several years now.
All the productive people are leaving Michigan...
