According to the Huffington Post (sorry,no link) Chris Mathtews,the host of MSNBC's Hardball reportedly is toying with the idea of running for the Senate from Pennsylvania. As What? The GOP alternative to Rick "Man-Dog" Santorum. It is no secret to anyone who watches Hardball that Matthews is from Philadelphia. It is also no secret that Matthews is exceedingly obnoxious and full of himself. His brother is a candidate for the LT Gov's position in the state as a Republican. Matthews is well known in political circles and he does know issues. The question is what would he run as? Would he run to the right of Santorum which is uber creepy? Would he be an independent? (Been there and tried that earlier this year) or would he run as a Democrat to the left of Casey? yeah,right. If he were dumb enough to actually do this,I'd rather see him run as a Republican,splitting the GOP vote. But he wouldn't run. After all,he would have much more fun kissing Santorum's ass than running against it.
