Is Alec Baldwin Mulling a Run Against Joe Lieberman?
By Matthew DeLong 8/20/09 12:49 PM

Yes, according to Alec�s brother Stephen, who spoke to The Washington Times today:

Actor Stephen Baldwin said Thursday his older, more-famous brother Alec Baldwin is seriously considering a challenge to Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman.

�Sure, I think Alec has some very interesting ideas that are common sense and logical that he would like to share with folks,� he said. �And the best way to do that is to hold political office.�

But who�s going to play Jack Donaghy?

1. I think of Alec Baldwin

as his generation's version of William Shatner.

4. No way. Baldwin would never be able to play Denny Crane twenty years from now

Shatner is IN on the joke. I'm not sure Alec is.

2. So Stephen is the source for this claim?

:rofl:

Nah, I didn't read the linked article. Figured I could just take this chance to make fun of Stevie. :-)

3. Maybe his brother thinks he can step in as "Steve Donaghy", Jack's born-again ex-junkie brother

He'd bond with Kenneth the page, that's for sure. And he'd push Liz Lemon to include more Christian extreme sports in the show.

6. Really?

Are we sure he didn't say "run over Joe Lieberman?"
