A flesh-eating Zombie would make a good candidate because all he would say is "Brains, Tasty Brains" and people would think he's strong on education and/or biological/medical research. The down side is that it could make for very messy press conferences.

If he lost the Gubanatorial race, he'd be a shoo-in to become the Mayor of St. Paul, being Irish and all. The St. Patrick's Day Parade would be awesome.
