>Is this a /biz/ move?

Anything that involves people or the outside world is usually not /biz/ move.

Is it a good move? If you can make it happen, yes.
Political Campaigns have long also been a good opportunity to build a personal brand, a publicity stunt, so even if you don't win you've still created brand equity you can parlay into your next or current business.

Just be prepared to deal with the evillest, most self obsessed, hypocritical sacks of shit you could ever imagine sharing a room with: politicians.

I already deal with the evil. I've been everything from a campaign volunteer to campaign manager for both sides of the aisle. May as well cash in.

imagine the most annoying, imperious people you know, bound together with common interests in ruining everyone else's lives. Each one of these people will call you weekly to complain, and occasionally request your assistance in complaining.
