Ben Affleck for US Senate against Sen. George Allen. Whatever.
I say, "Bring it on, Gigli!" It'd be an easy win for Allen.
I really like this idea. Quote:

RICHMOND — Elizabeth Taylor choked on a chicken bone at a political fundraiser in southwest Virginia. “Dukes of Hazzard” star Ben “Cooter” Jones couldn’t drive his congressional campaign out of the ditch.
Virginia hasn’t been kind to Hollywood celebrities who dabble in politics. That hasn’t stopped rumors that actor Ben Affleck is being courted to challenge Republican George F. Allen for his U.S. Senate seat in 2008.

That's our wedding night. 
Affleck mentioned last summer that he was thinking about it. I can't say much about actors wanting to get into politics, look at Reagan. But Affleck? Poker boy, J.Lo lover etc.. weird. I wonder what his views are.

I saw an interview with him that O'Reilly did during the Dem convention last year. He was very well spoken and seemed fairly intelligent but he is still a Democrat.

Hard core democrat. He campaigned for Kerry with Ted Kennedy.
One pic of that and he'd be toast in the Commonwealth.
