Rent is too damn HIGH

Trolling is all so common on the internet. However, what happens when you start trolling in real life? Serious topics/discussions will turn into a joke, which is precisely what happened last night in the most exciting New York Governor Debate EVER.

Last night, in the first and also last debate between all seven candidates in the upcoming elections, it was not the Republican nor the Democrat who stole the spotlight last night, but Jimmy McMillan, leader of the Rent is too Damn High Party who did.

You can catch a brief summary of the debate in this article. I couldn't stop laughing after hearing this guy speak (he looks like a fusion between Mr. T and Hulk Hogan). He insists the solution to solving all of New York's problems is to lower the rent because RENT IS TOO DAMN HIGH. He speaks with plenty of eloquence but solely focuses on one platform. When questioned on his opinion on gay marriage he responded with, "Rent Is Too Damn Party feels if you want to marry a shoe, I’ll marry you."

Surely this man cannot be serious? Then again, seeing how another candidate is a former female pimp (platform includes legalizing prostitution, marijuana and same sex marriage) who introduced Eliot Spitzer his prostitute, this year's election sure is full of "interesting" people.

Seeing how this guy only got 4000 votes in 2005, I wonder how many votes he will get this year after all of this publicity.
