World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) CEO Linda McMahon has announced that she will be running for U.S. Senate in Connecticut as a Republican.  If she wins the party's nomination, she will face Chris Dodd in the general election in 2010.  Mrs. McMahon says she will largely self-finance her campaign and will not accept any contributions over $100.

     I know some people are already getting their jokes ready, but she seems like a very strong candidate.  Besides having the money, she is the CEO of a successful multi-million dollar company and has name recognition.  I wouldn't bet against her.
