Jon Bon Jovi to Run for Governor of New Jersey…?

November 14, 2007 Posted in Daily Features, Entertainment

Just this morning I was thinking to myself, “Wouldn’t it be great if another 80s icon ran for governor?” Well, guess what? Today, my ultimate wish has came true: Jon Bon Jovi is planning to run for governor of New Jersey.

By John

He’s a cowboy – on a steel horse he rides – but does Jon Bon Jovi have what it takes to wrassle up a worthwhile campaign?

If I take his hand will I make it, as he swore to me years before?

Will he give politics a bad name?

If I know I’m gonna live in his reign, should I just keep the faith?

Does it even matter, considering his lifelong fans will vote for him regardless?

Slippery When Wet-era Jovi running for governor would have my vote; but these days Jovi is an aging hack whose albums get worse every year. How can I trust a man that shamlessly releases complete BS to the public, using his celebrity status as his only means of acceptance? Oh wait a minute…

Maybe JBJ’s entry into politics isn’t such a bad idea after all…if Bruce Springsteen didn’t unofficially run New Jersey already. One cannot deny the power of The Boss.

jon bon jovi is a ledgend! however old he is he is a growing ledgend, his albulms are anything but bad i fell in love with jon bon jovi the moment i heard his songs at the age of 5 and have been in love with him ever since, so to say his songs are bad and he is too old is an unfair statement especially to his fans, next time get some insite, if u have actually heard his songs than you would not have had to lie so obviously you havent heard any recent songs of his!!!!
