Brad Pitt Won't Run for Mayor. Darn.

I really don't have any idea why there's a push for Brad Pitt to run for mayor of New Orleans, but there apparently is. Too bad it's impossible considering you have to live there for 5 years in order to be eligible and he's lived there for, oh I don't know, somewhere around 0 years. AP reports:

Brad Pitt is laughing off the idea he should run for mayor of New Orleans.

Pitt told NBC's "Today" show on Thursday that he has seen the "Brad Pitt for Mayor" T-shirts that many New Orleans residents have been sporting for at least two months.

But when asked if he has considered running, Pitt said, "I don't have a chance."

If this is how we're going to be, I'm making it known right now that I'd like Neil Patrick Harris to run for city councilman in my town. It pays about $4,000 per year but the respect you get around town is uncanny. Like our current one walked into a Family Dollar yesterday and three people said hi. One of them wasn't even retarded..
