Jimmy McMillan Of The 'Rent Is Too Damn High' Party Announces His Retirement

Single-issue politics took a blow this week as Jimmy McMillan, who repeatedly ran for governor of New York under the independent “Rent is Too Damn High” party, announced his retirement.

McMillan, who has also run for mayor, said in a press release riddled with grammar and spelling errors that as of Dec. 1, there wasn’t enough public support for his campaign as the people of New York had been “brainwashed.”
