Just as the rumors surfaced that Tim McGraw was running for Governor of Tennessee in 2010, he says that he has no plans in the immediate future to give up singing for a political seat.
Of the rumors, he says, “There’s no truth to this.” His rep also added, “It’s something he is interested in, but not for 2010. Later in life.”
What started the rumors was how he admitted that politics might be in the future for him. He said, “I grew up in Louisiana and politics is kind of a contact sport and you grow up knowing about it. I’ve always been fascinated by what can be done in the public arena. And if the time comes when 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.”
And there you have it! He may still run for office, it’s just not going to be anytime soon.
