Crazy, But It Just Might Work

Senator--now Governor--John Corzine of New Jersey has to name his replacement to the Senate. The Attytood blog has an idea:

Jon Corzine needs to appoint Bruce Springsteen to the United States Senate.

Crazy? Not any crazier than a violent action-flick actor from Austria with steroid use and groping allegations who can't even properly pronounce the name of his home state getting elected as its governor (a job with a lot more responsibility than a senator, by the way). Or not any crazier than electing a retired pro wrestler to the statehouse. And not any crazier than another rock star from across the pond coming within an eyelash of the Nobel Peace Prize.

Give it a full read to see the more standard political choices that Corzine has in front of him as well as the many pluses that Springsteen brings.
