Clay Aiken has learned that you don't have to actually be a winner to come out ahead. He learned that lesson when he came in second on "American Idol" and was launched into fame while the actual winner of that contest is pretty much forgotten. He seems to have applied that lesson to his recent congressional campaign as well.

Everyone who knows him in Raleigh can see that he is scam artist. Look how he run his own life / used people to get what he wanted. Glad his campaign crashed n burned. I see his show doing likewise.

Public office is not well served by self aggrandizing egotists, just as it is not well served by advocates of sodomy and abortion.

Oprah tried that with failed NFL fag Michael Sam. He was supposed to have a reality show too.

He’s high maintenance and high drama. Perfect for taking money from Hollyweird donors
