    Craig James considering run for US Senate

    Fox News ticker reporting that Craig James would consider a run for the US Senate in Texas to take over Kay Bailey Hutchison's seat.

    Hope that his first stop on the old campaign trail isn't in Lubbock!

    Even though he has never formally been linked to the SMU scandal, a lot of voters will assume he has. This could hurt him.

    Yes... the past will be linked to him, unfairly or fairly.

    If you're playing with fire and may be losing it all, might as well roll the dice and take the chance.

    He is delusional if he thinks he can run and win.

    He can always rely on the "concerned parent" angle. That would play well with the soccer moms. In fact, I think the Leach incident helps him more than hurts him if he plays it right.

    Re: Craig James considering run for US Senate

    Oh I see. For the James family, it had nothing to do with Leach's treatment of Adam. It was all about making their family look like a victim so the public would feel sympathy for them and elect him to Senate. This shocks me about 0%. He is likely a a liar who uses whatever means he has at his disposal to further his own interests.

    HE WOULD BE PERFECT FOR POLITICS!!!

    Re: Craig James considering run for US Senate

    Think about it. There is really nothing you could ask him about the Leach incident that would trip him up on the campaign trail. I see it as nothing but a bonus for him. (Not saying that it should be.)

    So you're at a town hall meeting and you want to trip up Craig James about the Leach incident. What would you ask him?

    Re: Craig James considering run for US Senate

    After thinking about it longer, Craig James is the Republican Party's dream candidate.

    Ex-athlete in good shape and good looking? Check.
    Well-spoken? Check.
    Concerned about kids? Check.

    He's got the soccer mom vote. He's the 2010 version of Bill Clinton.

    Yeah, I was really hoping that he'd be a Republican.

    Is he running as a Democrat (bad party) or Republican (good party)?

    Re: Craig James considering run for US Senate

    Are you kidding? Craig James is a family man that loves his children so much that he had recently had to take on a rich, powerful coach to stop mistreatment of his son. And he did this at great risk to his own career, because to Craig James, family is more important than anything in the world.

    After hearing of the abuses, the university fired this coach, helping make the athletic world safer for your children. Because Craig James doesn't think winning is everything.

    Sorry, just warming up in case Craig offers me a job as his campaign advisor.
