Jim Traficant is unwanted by the UAW

Former Congressman and convict Jim Traficant has filed to run to get his old Congressional seat back with a vow to take on the IRS.

As a popular Democrat who could pull support from other Dems, the UAW is not pleased:

"I think we've been embarrassed enough...over the past three or four years...as a Valley," said Jim Graham, president of UAW Local 1112. "We don't need a further embarrassment by electing someone who's been in jail."

This should be fun to watch....
