Clay is a world class bottom feeder. No one on the list has even come close to his bottomfeedingness. He definitely deserves some sort of recognition in this legendary low price group.
An award in the form of a loving cup or faux sheepskin should be created and presented to him at the upcoming international event in New England; in absentia if he can't be there; or at a future event if there isn't time for this one. In the spirit of true conservatism, the set of principles which give rise to bottomfeedingness, I for one will be searching Goodwill and similar stores for an appropriate cup that can be erased and inscribed with a eulogy to Clay. In view of the bald tires, borderline brakes, and other risks associated with very low priced old Mercedes, a eulogy would be most appropriate; just in case.
