Banjo the Democrat Clown

According to the Broward New Times, Poor Banjo the Democrat Clown took quite a bit of abuse at John Edward's campaign stop in West Palm Beach, Florida.

Banjo, all dressed up in a star-spangled Raggedy Andy outfit, complete with a top hat, did a little magic trick and pulled an American flag from his clenched fist.

The magic trick caused a Junior Achiever volunteer thug to issue a cease and desist order to Banjo because, "all signs and flags are outlawed at the event." That's right. John Edwards has banned the American Flag from his Campaign events.

But wait! There's more. Along comes another Junior Achiever volunteer thug who demanded the removal of Banjo's top hat because he was blocking the view.

But wait... there's more! Along comes yet another Junior Achiever volunteer thug who banished Banjo to the back of the room. It appears that the 6 ft tall Banjo was also in violation of the Campaign height rule.

I guess John Edwards doesn't like clowns at his campaign events. Probably doesn't like the competition.
