Lynn Swann is Running...

...for Governor of Pennsylvannia.

From NewsMax:
In a warm and engaging talk, Swann, who followed booming speeches by no less than former presidential candidate Dr. Alan Keyes and RNC chairman Ken Mehlman, firmly tossed his hat in the ring to contest incumbent Edward G. Rendell, a Democrat, in 2006. "I'm running to be the next governor of Pennsylvania."

Acknowledging the long shot, Swann noted, "Look, it took me 14 years to get elected to the Hall of Fame. I felt like Susan Lucci waiting on the Emmy." Swann was inducted in 2001 after collecting four Super Bowl rings and playing in three Pro-Bowls.
This will be a very interesting race to watch...
