Traficant: Yes! I’m Running For Office!

James Traficant

The recently incarcerated former Rep. Jim Traficant (D-OH) has reportedly told a business networking group that he (and his infamous hair, we assume) will run for Congress in 2010.

According to the Business Journal Daily>, Traficant told the 35-odd members of The Biz Society in Youngstown, Ohio, that he’s “going to run for Congress somewhere.”

Traficant was recently released from prison after serving seven years on corruption charges, and wasted no time circling nomination petitions for the House of Representatives in three Ohio districts just a few months later.
