Controversial talk show host Jerry Springer has a secret of his own to share: He's considering running for the U.S. Senate. Springer says he'll decide by this summer whether to challenge George Voinovich, a Republican who will run for a second term in 2004. Springer acknowledged that the Jerry Springer Show could work against him. "There are pluses and minuses," Springer said. "The plus is that I'm known by everybody. The minus is that I'm known by everybody." Springer is a former Cincinnati mayor and councilman who lost the Democratic primary for governor in 1982. He also says he may run for Cincinnati mayor in 2005 or governor in 2006.
