Just saw this thread. OMG! He's from my home town and now lives in the town next to my home town (thankfully I don't live there anymore - but I still have to go there to visit my mom)!
All I can remember about him is that he was creepy and got SUPER upset when his dog died and he thought no one was sympathetic even though I and many other people expressed our sympathy. He just about had a tantrum about how people didn't understand. I wouldn't give him high-marks on emotional stability. |

Well, so much for DRBuzz0's campaign.
I just looked at the results and I was quite disappointed I couldn't find him. The results list the 3rd district as uncontested for the Republicans and the Democrats. I did find the problem, though. According to Buzz0 from his site:

However, according to Wikipedia:

He's not listed on this page, but there is a Republican and a Democrat listed for the third district. Perhaps he's not counted as being "Active". His own site says "The general election will be held on Tuesday November 6, 2012." and "The primary will be held on August 14, 2012"

I'm in the Ct 2nd, right next to it and he's not considered a viable cnadidate in the local press. Zero coverage

If his campaign is dead, no one has told DRBUZZ0. He just bumped a request for donations on his FB site.

Buzz0 For Congress?
I heard rumors. They are apparently true.
Check out the photo Gallery for pics taken (I think) at TAMs. |

I ran for vice president and nobody said a word about it! I think they're just jealous of my you-betcha folksy wisdom and family of insane Alaska people. And that Skeletor man running with me was pretty creepy and smelled of Fritos even though there were no Fritos around.

Is it just me or does it look like Bill Nye is mouthing the words "help me"?
Make sure you read that thread, especially page 6 and 7 where we discovered the typos on his campaign swag and a few actually got items sent to them. |

As a strategy for not being embarrassed in the GOP primary, he's gone independent

To be clear, that commitment is to fiscal conservationism. |

He's got pretty good taste when it comes to ties, but is terrible at matching them with a shirt.

I'm in the CT 4th and he gets more press here at JREF than he does offline.

Well, looking at his photo gallery, he's clearly got little idea of what will appeal to the general constituency. Even in the UK, only skeptics are likely to have more than a vague idea who Richard Wiseman and Ben Goldacre are. I guess Bill Nye is better known in the US. (And, regarding the not very flattering photo of Richard Wiseman, it looks as though Richard is laughing at BUZZ0, not with him.)
