PHOENIX (AP) — Action-movie star Steven Seagal says he is considering a run for Arizona governor.

The “Marked for Death” actor told KNXV-TV that he is considering a shot at the state’s highest office and has had a talk about the bid with the self-proclaimed toughest sheriff in America.

The fatal gaffe seems to be that he’s a stealth liberal. No dice, Seagal. Stick to your judo movies I say.

I'll admit that I like some of his movies, but if I lived in Arizona, I wouldn't vote for him.

Another Ah-Nuld! waiting to happen, or a chance at securing the border with a big middle finger to the Obama admin?

More likely a "Greenie" version of Jesse Ventura most likely if he does run. If he runs as a Republican I'll be shocked. Ever see On Deadly Ground?

[ Seagal made an anti-Capitalist movie set in Alaska against the Oil Industry.

Nice try Hollywood, but we don’t want no stinking Oil and Gas Nationalization! ]

Was it anti-Capitalist or anti-Crony-Capitalist?

Is Reagan running again? Does he have anything in common with today’s Hollyfreakinweirdo’s?

He’s not stealth anything. He may be conservative on immigration, but he also gave us the movie “On Deadly Ground.”

He would likely be worse than crazy Jesse. Yeah, we need to rally behind some prospective candidate early to disuade this, because you can bet your bottom dollar if Arizonans elect McLame, they’d elect Seagal.

I trained in the same art he did and I take exception to your describing him as a ‘fat pig’. I saw a hundred pound woman take on 5 attackers from all directions and not one at a time to earn her black belt. He is the baddest fat guy you would ever have the misfortune to meet and if you do I would advise strongly against calling him that. Just a FRiendly piece of advice.

He's so tough he had to beat his ex wife Kelly Lebrock.

Do a search of "steven seagal sexual harassment", he's got quite a reputation.

Hopefully Seagal’s political career works out as well as his buddy Anderson Silva did against Chris Weidman.

I heard he used to be married to actress Kelly LeBrock, and was very abusive to her. Who really knows the truth? She does look quite weathered these days.

Are there any fatal gaffes in his background that he won’t be able to deftly or skillfully handle?

Like wife beating?

Didn’t intend to make it personal or about you, hence my ending that Reagan was probably the only exception. Sorry if you took a light hearted poke wrong, but after looking I guess several of us poked you with that stick. Take care, I actually agree with you.

Didn’t he get in trouble for roughing up his wife some time ago? Not sure if I am thinking of the right guy but pretty sure it was him.
