Former Vol great and NFL bust Heath Shuler has announced his intention to run for a Congressional seat in the western region of North Carolina. Democrat? Republican? Who cares… he’s a football player. Besides, you can’t tell from the website, but we do know he’s running on a platform of “taking Western North Carolina values to the House of Representatives”.
Orson Swindle and Stranko Montana are two men pushing thirty who should know better than to run a college football blog, but evidently don't. Both graduated from the University of Florida, and both agree that college football is far too important to be left to the professionals.

He’s running as a Dem (last time I saw). I was passing through WNC after visiting my mom outside Knoxville and saw a clip in a small-town paper that said something about U.S. House candidate Heath Shuler. That was back in April. I thought it was a joke. You know, “Oh, not THAT Heath Shuler. There’s no way!” Guess he really did like DC.

Heath’s a democrat. I never thought he was too bright (although his wife was a looker – their season tickets were right in front of mine for a while). Business must not be too good as I think most democrats don’t earn real income that gets taxed by the feds. But then western North Carolina is probably still loaded with yellow-dog Dems. At the end of the day, I don’t see him hanging with Kennedy, Kerry, Clinton (Hillary, not Bill) and the like. Maybe he’ll be a Zell Miller Democrat!!

I don’t think he has a chance of getting elected — the only Democrats in WNC are in Asheville. Then again, he is young and good-looking and that worked for John Edwards, though I think Edwards was a little smarter.
From what I’ve seen, Shuler is your typical old-school Southern Dem, minus the racism. In other words, look for him to be big on education, health care and jobs, but I imagine he’ll also be friendly to social conservatives and small business.
