This clip of some wacko running for Stark County Ohio Treasurer is making the rounds. I hereby nominate him for the Bobcat Goldthwait school of political theater award instead.

Oh lordy….
In between all the hyperventilation he claims no less than two master and two bachelor degrees. Public admin, communication, history and sociology. Yet, he mangles his “favorite” quote and said not one word about what he will actually do as treasurer.
He certainly needs to cut down on the caffeine intake…
I wondered if perhaps he had forgotten his daily medications.
Love it! he should put his speech on note cards and walk around, however, in order to make more dramatic use of space. He was too tied to the podium. Love his vocab – it’s an infestation!” And isn’t running for treasurer generating it’s own subgenre of comic videos. wasn’t that guy with a horse and gun also running for treasurer (in Alabama?)? Finally, and maybe this is my 24-7 work sched and pressure speaking, the timing of your post gives me an idea; we should take a cue from classical athens about how to observe the season, maybe a day devoted to tragedy for the 11th and round it out with comedy on the 12th. make it a 2-day observance and wash all that demonstration craziness (and disrespect to the events I might add) out of our system with some laughter on sept 12. Paging Aristophanes!
Great idea! My capacity for finding humor in the, shall we say, unusual, has seen me through some very dark and difficult times in the past when nothing else would do.
Wow
