The controversial Austrian School economist, who won Internet fame for a video of his many predictions of a housing bubble burst, is strongly considering a Senate run in Connecticut. The draft site ishere.
Schiff would be disrupting the plans of Rob Simmons, a Republican congressman from 2001 to 2007 who is already running against Sen.
