Sorry, I've been away. I did a little time for paying for a hooker with a check, which subsequently bounced (the check, not the hooker)

Sure, he's being serious. I think his chances are somewhat less than a snowball in hell, though. I think the dems are in trouble in Ohio, sad to say, and Springer brings name recognition -- not that that is a good thing in this case. I've heard Springer talk of things political and he has some interesting things to say, but I think most people won't be able to get past the "image" associated with his show.
The problem with the dems in Ohio is that they have too few up and comers within the party who have the kind of name recognition that will play in, say, New Rome rather than Cleveland or Y-town. This, coupled with the stranglehold the republicans have on all of the statewide offices right now doesn't bode well for the near term. So yes, in short, this would be grasping at straws. However, I don't know how strongly the democratic party is courting Springer. From what I've heard, it's more the other way around, though feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
