We're not quite sure if this guy is serious or if he's joking (or if maybe he's both at the same time, like Andy Kaufman): Andy Horwitz is running for mayor on the "Blog Party" ticket. We suppose we ought to support his campaign, what with being a blog and all, but somehow we can't really work up the enthusiasm; he's just got such a boring platform. (A typical plank: "Accountability in the MTA and responsible public transportation development initiatives." Please.) Plus, what's a blog party without drinks, or at least Krucoff? We'll make this pledge, though: If Horwitz successfully picks a fight with Jerry Lawler, he's absolutely got our votes.
