Tom Knox To Depress His Way To Mayordom?

The Daily News released a poll today about the 2007 Mayoral Election, one that puts Tom Knox within the margin of error of front-runner Chaka Fattah. This is, assumedly, due to his incessant ads on every TV show. (I think I saw one during WWE Smackdown!)

If you haven’t seen the ads, you’re missing out. They feature Tom Knox depressing the shit out of everyone. I’d be willing to wager that people are thinking about voting for Knox just to make him stop showing those damn depressing ads. “Oh, dammit, I’ll vote for you, just stop telling us about your crying mother and dead brother!” Knox should probably run ads saying “If I don’t win the mayoral election, I’m going to keep running these ads just to piss you off.” Who with a TV wouldn’t vote for him?

Oh, and if you’re wondering, Tom Knox has a Flickr account.
