“American Idol” runner-up Clay Aiken made it official on Thursday: He’s running for Congress in North Carolina. Bloggers are truly blessed.
Popular “American Idol” judge Harry Connick Jr. marked Aiken’s forthcoming humiliation with this tweet:
if @clayaiken can run "for" congress, i should be allowed to run "around" congress. you will find me jogging outside the capitol building.

@LeahKGillan @HarryConnickJR @clayaiken I think he should be shirtless, too. Whoops? Did I just tweet that? *said in best Urkel voice*

And an exit musing from last night:
i wonder if the career of @RyanSeacrest would have gone in the opposite direction if his name were ryan landtrough.
