Because nothing says serious political candidate like a famous mustache and a bizarre history of covering faux Satanic ritual popularity, Geraldo Rivera is prepping for a New Jersey senatorial run, the radio and television host said Thursday. “I mention this only briefly, fasten your seatbelt,” he stated. “I am and I’ve been in touch with some people in the Republican Party in New Jersey. I am truly contemplating running for Senate against Frank Lautenberg or Cory Booker in New Jersey.”

A word of warning: he should double check to make sure he’s running in New Jersey, and not 300 miles away in New York.
