Ted Nugent may run for Governor...

[Analog]

Motor City madman Ted Nugent continues to stoke speculation that he'll attempt to unseat Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm next year, reports The Philadelphia Inquirer.

He is "getting real close to deciding to run," the rocker and hunting advocate told The Corpus Christi Caller-Times in an interview published Friday.

The guitarist and author of Kill It and Grill It said he'll make his decision "in the next few weeks. That will blow some minds."

A vocal advocate of the NRA and staunch Republican, Nugent raised eyebrows in April when he made a gung-ho speech at the organization's annual convention.

At the convention, the rocker said, "To show you how radical I am, I want carjackers dead. I want rapists dead. I want burglars dead. I want child molesters dead. I want the bad guys dead. No court case. No parole. No early release. I want 'em dead. Get a gun and when they attack you, shoot 'em."

Meanwhile, Nugent, who moved from Detroit to Crawford, Texas, last year, hit the road Friday with his ''Uncle Ted Remember the Alamo" tour.

He moved there because he liked the schools for his kids.

He's still maintained Michigan residency.

That's not a bad thing.

Pretty cool, one of the only rockers that never did drugs or drank heavily.

Anybody with HD see Ted at the "Rockin' the Corps" concert? Godsmack was his backup band. That was pretty cool.

Not the reunion tour. The reunion tour was 1996.

Ted opened for them more recently than that.

Since he is on the NRA board of directors, I doubt that the dems would have him. They hate people who can take care of themselves without having a dozen bodyguards...
