I think Wanker referenced a former governor of VA who went to a BIGVA firm after he was governor, and ncs has discussed Ron Kirk, and I think Kay Bailey Hutchison's husband was a politician for a long time (how they met) and then went to BIGTEX, but I don't know whether he was at a firm before he went into politics or was at one at all while in politics.

ETA I think you steered him right, but wtf do I know? Unless he is part of a famous political family, it's kind of a stretch to assume that he will be successful and influential enough in politics to get a job at a prominent firm.
Thompson was the former US Attorney in Chicago before becoming Governor of Illinois. He became a partner at Winsotn & Strawn after leaving office.

Ty Fahner was State's Attorney and also in the US Attorney's office. I believe he's at Mayer Brown now.
