Linda for Senate

In a breaking industry news of sort, WWE CEO Linda McMahon has resigned from her high-profile post as the public face of the integrated media and sports entertainment company to run for the U.S. Senate against 5-term incumbent Senator Chris Dodd in 2010 because "I can't sit on the sidelines anymore".

A self-proclaimed Republican and fiscal conservative, the 60-year-old McMahon will be contesting against Democrat Dodd for the state of Connecticut, in which she has been residing and serving for over 30 years. (The WWE HQ, incidentally, is also based in Stamford, CT.)

Planning on bringing "a fresh perspective to the difficult challenges facing our country", the classy wife of WWE Chairman Vince McMahon promises an atypical political campaign where no contributions from PACS or special interest groups will be accepted and other contributions from individuals will be limited to $100. (What can we say? WWE's fucking loaded.)

But you know what'll be really funny (as cited by an online source)? Linda has launched her own YouTube channel; what if serious voters click on 'related videos' and see clips of her on the receiving end of a Tombstone by Kane or Stone Cold Stunner by Steve Austin? Wahaha...
