Shimkus 'wowed' by Ted Nugent

Rep. John Shimkus (R-Ill.) was wowed on Friday by rocker Ted Nugent, who joined the lawmaker for a roundtable discussion in St. Louis, Mo.


Shimkus (center left) tweeted this photo of himself at KMOX-FM, with Nugent (center right), radio talk show host Mark Reardon (right) and St. Louis Alderman Antonio French (left).

Nugent is an outspoken conservative whose political activism has won him plenty of friends on the right, but equal numbers of enemies on the left.

Nugent has considered running for political office in the past, saying in 2005 that he was "getting real close to deciding to run" for governor of Michigan, before deciding against a run.

Shimkus, a four-term representative from Springfield, Ill., was amazed by Nugent's big personality, tweeting "Ted Nugent's personality fills the room..wow."
