Would You Vote for a Politician Named "Joey Shithead?"

As a longtime fan of Vancouver's DOA, have all kinds of time for Joey "Shithead" Keithley.  Although the guy is in his 50s, he's lost none of his punk rock ferocity.  Now he wants to bring that attitude to provincial politics.

According to the National Post, Joey will seek the NDP nomination for in an unnamed riding for next year's provincial election.

This isn't Joey's first foray into politics.  He's run twice before for the Green Party, finishing fifth and third respectively.

And let's not forget the Dead Kennedys' Jello Biafra who ran for mayor of San Francisco in 1979.  He finished fourth.

Joey will have more details on his political aspirations next week.
