Clay Aiken for….President?

 

Can a profile on Manhunt stop
 Clay Aiken from running for Congress?!

We will soon see!

Former “American Idol” finalist Clay Aiken, who lost the singing
competition’s second season to Ruben Studdard in 2003, is “actively
considering” a run for North Carolina’s 2nd congressional district in
the U.S. House, according to the Washington Blade.

Sources told the Blade the openly gay singer has been making phone
calls to gauge potential support as he works with Betsy Conti, a local
political strategist who has worked with Al Gore and former North
Carolina Gov. Bev Purdue.

It’s unclear when Aiken may announce his decision to run for the House seat, currently filled by Rep. Renee Ellmers, R-N.C.
