McMillan warns Obama

Because life is short, I try generally to avoid irrelevant joke candidacies (particularly ones whose views have a slightly sinister tinge) in this space, but it seems worth noting that the semi-coherent Jimmy McMillan of "The Rent Is Too Damn High Party" fame is attempting to take his black-gloved act national.

He announced his campaign for the presidency on the libertarian-leaning Revolution Radio yesterday.

The tag line: "Tell Obama I'm coming after his black ass."
