Kenny the Clown Eyes Mayoral Seat

Kenny the Clown wants to be the mayor of Alameda. Instead of giving the mayor a gavel to preside over town council meetings, he can use a honking bulb horn.

Gads I hate clowns. But I think it would be funny if Kenny wins the election. Here is his stupid website.

From the AP here:

ALAMEDA, Calif. – A real clown is running for mayor of Alameda, and even his sister won’t vote for him.

Kenneth Kahn, 41, a professional joker known as “Kenny the Clown,” admits he’s running a long-shot campaign for City Hall’s top spot. Kahn has not previously run for an elected position and has never sat on a public board.

“People ask me, ‘Do we really want to elect a clown for mayor of the city?'” he said. “I say, ‘That’s an excellent question.'”

Kahn’s mother, Barbara, said her son doesn’t have a chance, and Sylvia Kahn, a teacher, said her brother’s candidacy is a “mockery of our system.”

Even a clown’s own family hates him. Clowns are only funny when their stupid over-sized shoes are too big to close the coffin lid on them.
