Well, not that Isaac Hayes, who died last year. But Rep. Jackson's Republican challenger could have some fun with campaign slogans invoking his more famous namesake.

Tired of getting the Shaft from Washington? Vote for Isaac Hayes. Or: Isaac Hayes -- finally, a Chef who won't spoil the broth. And maybe even: Vote for hot buttered soul.

Stranger things have happened. Though I doubt Rev. Hayes will be calling me for campaign advice anytime soon.
