According to this article, it is likely that Hawaii Congresswoman Colleen Hanabusa will be appointed to Hawaii’s vacant U.S. Senate seat. If that happens, Hawaii will then soon hold a special election to fill Hanabusa’s seat. Hawaii special U.S. House elections are one-round elections in which parties do not have nominees. When Hawaii held a special U.S. House election in 2010, two popular Democrats ran, splitting the normal Democratic vote, so that Republican Charles Djou was elected. The vote in that special May 2010 special election for the top three candidates were: Republican Djou 67,610; Democrat Colleen Hanabusa 52,802, Democrat Ed Case 47,391. But in November 2010, in a normal partisan election, Djou lost to Hanabusa.

If Roseanne Barr lived in the 1st District instead of the 2nd since she lives on the Big Island, then it would have been a great opportunity for her to try to make a run for Congress (I know you don’t have to live in a district to run for its seat, but it makes the people of the district feel better that you live among them). The most she can do is either run in the upcoming special Senate election or the regular US Congress election for the 2nd District, either way she should try to do something to make the Peace and Freedom Party active in Hawaii.

Someone should give her a call. Peace and Freedom Party would do well in Hawaii. D’s have one party rule (with Linda Lingle sole R) in that state. With this anti-war party stand she should do very well.
I get the feeling she is not about building any party.
Roseanne Barr could still try.
She could, sure. But I don’t think she would want to.
Probably it would be best to talk to her about the idea of building the PFP and running for office via Twitter, although from what I’ve heard she’s usually busy in hot water on the site.
It’s all about Roseanne, not building anything. If she wanted to build anything it would have been a very different campaign.
Too bad.
