Alec Baldwin To Run For Governor?

Hothead Alec Baldwin has not ruled out a run for governor of New York, provided he doesn’t have to speak to any tweenaged girls in the process:
“There’s other things I want to do [besides acting],” he tells Morley Safer on “60 Minutes” this Sunday. “In a matter of weeks, I’m going to be 50.” Bombastic Baldwin was thinking of running for governor two years ago before he lost his temper and left a voice mail for his daughter Ireland, then 11, calling her “a rude, thoughtless little pig.” Given a chance to apologize for calling Kim Basinger’s lawyer, Judy Bogen, a “300-pound homunculus with a face like a clenched fist,” Baldwin replied, “I was being kind, Morley.”
You know, Alec often seems to be missing that little chip that most people have in their brain that says, “Hey, perhaps you shouldn’t say that,” but sometimes that quality can be quite refreshing. Most other actors would be backpedaling so fast that they’d get muscle cramps, but not Alec. I’ve got to remember that insult. Well, as soon as I find out how to pronounce “homunculus”.
My personal favorite insult is “slack-jawed mouth-breathing knuckle-dragging monosyllabic troglodyte.” Feel free to use it, Alec. Just not at your daughter. (Oh stop, it’s a joke…GlossLip was one of the very few sites to stick up for the man. I like Alec, I just don’t always like his actions.)
But Governor? Frankly, I like Alec best when he shuts up and looks cool. But if California can have the Governator…? Wonder if he’d rename the Governor’s Mansion “The Inner Sanctum” and be chauffeured in a cool retro taxi? (Just keep Penelope Ann Miller away, puhleeze.)
