Tim McGraw is NOT running for the governor of Tennessee in the 2010 race. All of you disappointed country music fans will have to wait several more years for it to happen.  If ever.  Why?

Tim and wife Faith Hill are both interested in politics and have been active in helping their state.  They’ve also been vocal about criticizing efforts to rebuild failed in hurricane Katrina.  So what do you do then – you run for public office!

The Republic suggested Tim McGraw was running for Governor in 2010.  That’s only one year away!  At least he has a gazillion dollars in his bank account, so the campaign costs wouldn’t be a problem.

However, Tim and his PR person through People Magazine say it isn’t true:

“It’s something he is interested in, but not for 2010. Later in life.”

But Tim does also say:

“I’ve always been fascinated by what can be done in the public arena. And if the time comes where there’s something available and I think I can do some positive things, I’ll be glad to do it. I wouldn’t want to do it just to say I did it.”

How do you think he would do as governor?
