John Rich To Maybe Run For Governor In 2010 [CMApocalypse]

June 12, 2009 9:30 AM 10 comments

If you’ve been following us for a while, you know that we at Nashvillest can never resist a good piece of John Rich news. Last night during a CMA-inspired segment on Larry King Live, he hinted about some aspirations to run for governor of Tennessee (thanks to Frank S. for the tip!) Although we feel like this is one of the worst ideas we’ve ever heard, we’re now banking on a John Rich vs. Tim McGraw throwdown in 2010. From the segment:

RICH: But I have a good time, man. I’m not one of the guys that lives in a cave and never comes out of the house. I go right out in the middle of the public and have some fun. And I’m thinking about running for governor of Tennessee in 2010 right now, so, you know, be watching.

    Oh No!! If he's really serious in running for Governor….I'm voting for the other contenders. But if he wins, I'll move out of state! :(

  • Jennifer

    Don't worry Amy. I have trouble believing anyone will take him seriously.

    This guy is nothing short of delusional. The monstrosity of his ego is so astounding he should probably be institutionalized.

    Oh that would be awesome! With his history there would be good times had from all with each revelation.

    Maybe he'll get good ole Fred to campaign with him.

    If he runs I'm starting a blog on the daily kos keeping daily updates of the circus!

    I'm so sick of this guy and his antics. Will he just go away already?
