Charles Barkley considers running for governor as Democrat
The Round Mound of Rebound has changed his political uniform from red to blue and is talking again about running for governor of Alabama, possibly in 2010.
Barkley has been talking about running for governor of his home state since he played with the Phoenix Suns. In 1995, he said he was considering running in 1998 as a Republican, but that never materialized.
After that, Barkley continued to identify himself as a Republican until recently, when he switched to the Democratic team.
Sir Charles has ditched the Republican Party like he was throwing them through plate glass window, due to their support of the Iraq war and opposition to gay marriage. Barkley currently works for TNT, who now have the luxury of waiting for Shaquille O’Neal to retire so he can take Barkley’s place as a loud-mouthed retired NBA player-turned-”analyst”.
