Here's Tony Avella's first (probably not last) mayoral video.

"I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take it anymore,” Avella says. "That’s why I’m running for mayor.”

According to a supporter, Avella will formally announce his candidacy on the steps of City Hall this Sunday at 1 p.m.

His campaign slogan, via the campaign web site is: “The revolution starts…now!”

Avella already has 70 friends on his MySpace page (including the League of Humane Voters of New York City and Mr. Met).

Look for more YouTube offerings for Avella, who clearly has lots to say, but a lot less money than top-tier candidates Christine Quinn, Bill Thompson and Anthony Weiner with which to say it.
