Of course, in Al Franken, we do presently in fact have a professional clown serving in the upper house of our congress. He even doesn't seem to be doing a particularly bad job. Except as a clown. He's presently much more a congressional official than say, Michelle Bachmann, who isn't and has never been an actual clown.
I personally would cheerfully vote of a literal big shoes clown who campaigns complete with red nose, motley, and horns so long as he or she espouses favorable well-articulated policy views and has even a decent history of decent character. It would actually tend to raise the level of debate some of the amateur no-talent ass-clowns we send to Washington from down here in South Carolina.
Clowns are fun.
