FORMER U.S. SENATOR DEAN BARKLEY “TOYING” WITH THE IDEA ABOUT RUNNING FOR THE U.S. SENATE OR CONGRESS IN THE 3RD CD
By Michael B. Brodkorb | December 6, 2007
"'I am toying with the U.S. Senate race — I’m just toying with it. I’m just being honest with you. Or the Third District race, which is actually the district I live in,' he said.
'I’ve got some mild interest in those two races,' said Barkley.
Barkley views American politics as ripe for a third party candidate.
'I think the U.S. Senate race in Minnesota, especially if (Al) Franken gets the nomination, would be a perfect window for somebody to come in that could strike that same common sense, can’t we just get something done and quit this game that’s going on,' he said.
Barkley said he would not make any final decisions about his own political future until next year." Source: ECM Publishing, December 6, 2007

Has he added these two prospective career moves to his Match.com profile???
Or is he stickin’ with erotica and “former US Senator” to pick up little dumb chicks?

I like Barkley. Keep in mind, he performed very well in the old 6th district as an Independent.

Dean Barkley is not a name you can trust. Also, walking around with that cigar in his mouth makes him look ridiculous.

Shouldn’t “senator” be in the word in quotes?
