"Truly an example of truth being stranger than fiction. Two blind guys and a mobster enter a race... Yeah, it's the joke our political system has become. You just keep hoping that the nice guy wins despite the odds. The short film included on this DVD is called "Clown Car". Car breaks down in the desert and 2 unpleasant clowns, complete with big shoes, wander for days surviving on seltzer and cream pies. Avoid it if you have a clown phobia. If you liked "Shakes the Clown", then you will probably like this, too. "

Additional Information

All politics is local in this hilarious burlesque of a documentary following a tightly-run mayoral race in the small town of Bogota, New Jersey. When the much-reviled--and legally blind--Republican incumbent Steven Lonegan boldly announces he will run for re-election, the citizens of Bogota go on the offensive to unseat him. Enter Democrat Fred Pesce, coaxed from retirement to share the ticket. With his health in question, and his politics compared to those of Tony Soprano, the field is wide open for sight-challenged town booster and former local football hero Dave Musikant to step in as a long-shot write-in independent candidate--officially making it the only mayoral race in the nation where two of the three candidates are legally blind! Add to the mix the machinations of Jesse "The Body" Ventura's campaign manager, and Anytown USA resonates as an all-too-familiar look at the charade of partisan politics in our increasingly polarized nation. - Product Description
