Levi Johnston

Sunny Oglesby is apparently dating Levi Johnston.

While the wisdom of this decision is questionable to say the least, given Levi's track record, they seem really happy - and Bristol Palin is even happy for them!

Levi, 20, has been dating Sunny Oglesby, 19, for two months since meeting through mutual friends. They're even "in a relationship" on Facebook! OMG!!

ALWAYS SUNNY: Sorry, that's the best we can do for a photo of Sunny Oglesby and Levi Johnston at the moment. She's not a fan of THG on Facebook ... YET!!

If you assumed this newfound romance would cause a rift between Levi and baby mama Bristol Palin ... that would be a safe assumption. But an incorrect one.

"I have to be happy for Levi's new relationship because it sounds like his new girlfriend is influencing him to want to actually spend time with Tripp," she said.

"I sincerely appreciate [Sunny's] influence because [Levi Johnston] hasn't asked to see Tripp in over five months, so I'm happy for this new development!"

Passive aggressive much?

Levi Johnston just can't resist.

Once again going after his arch-nemesis and baby mama's mama, he says Sarah Palin is "not qualified" to be President of the United States of America.

Palin is not officially seeking that office and may never do so, but why let that stop you if you're Levi and forever linked to the former Alaska Governor.

Seeking Sarah's old position, Levi's not afraid to bash his rival.

Johnston, who's hilariously running for Sarah's old job of mayor of Wasilla, Alaska, was commenting on her response to inquiries about a White House bid.

"If there's nobody else to do it," was how Sarah assessed her chances of running. As an American and her grandson's father, Levi Johnston was unmoved.

"That makes no sense because someone always runs for President," he notes. "[Sarah] wouldn't go through with a campaign even if she was nominated."

Burn.

The View panel left Bill O'Reilly alone for five seconds today and tag-teamed another political lightning rod: Wasilla, Alaska mayoral hopeful Levi Johnston.

On the program, the man who knocked up Bristol Palin tried and failed to explain his bid for mayor of his hometown, saying you don't need qualifications.

Hey, that's less ridiculous than him claiming he has any.

Levi Johnston is eyeing Sarah Palin's old office.

When asked by Barbara Walters what his qualifications are, Johnston said the job doesn't call for any and his lack of experience shouldn't be an impediment.

"QThere really are none," he said. "You've got to live in city limits for one year. You don't even need a high school diploma, which I'm working on anyway."

Well, that's reassuring to voters. When Whoopi Goldberg asked about his platform, he blanked. "At this point in time, I couldn't tell you," Levi Johnston said.

"Usually when people say they're running for mayor, they've thought about it before they actually run," Sherri Shepherd countered. Most people do, yes.

An overbearing mother. A slap in the face. The end of a young romance.

Sound like anyone you know? Or is Brittani Senser's "After Love" video, which co-stars Levi Johnston, just a coincidence, rather than art imitating life?

"Yeah, it plays in with his life. It also plays in with mine," Britt says of her video's hunk, who very possibly got his ass dumped by Bristol Palin over it.

Senser is honest about why she cast Johnston specifically.

"We added Levi because he's handsome - and we thought we'd get a few hundred thousand Youtube hits," says Senser. "We had no idea it would become this grand-scheme publishing phenomenon that it's become in the last few weeks."

In the video, Levi Johnson and Brittani play a couple on the verge of a breakup due to the meddling ways of her slap happy, on-screen mother. A thinly-veiled shot at a former V.P. candidate? Bristol Palin certainly thought so. Peep it post-jump ...

While Bristol Palin is busy Dancing with the Stars, the father of her child is sizzling with the singer.

Indeed, Levi Johnston met Brittani Senser on the set of her video for the song "After Love." In it, the pair fall for each other... only for their relationship to be busted by her disapproving mother.

Hmmm... we wonder where they got the idea for that set-up? Brittani and Levi have since started dating in real life, with her actually referring to Johnston as a "great guy." Below, feast your eyes on a few still images from the video and marvel at the chemistry between the stars:

Chin up, Levi Johnston. You may be absolutely hated throughout Alaska, but at least one person finds you "bright, sensitive and funny."

That's how Brittani Senser described the political candidate/reality star/hater of Sarah Palin in a new interview. The 24-year old singer was happy to speak to Radar Online and explain why she finds her new boyfriend to be a "really great guy."

From Bristol to Brittani: An upgrade or downgrade for Levi Johnston?

"When we worked together on making the [video for Senser's single, "After Love], I was really happy about it because I felt that Levi could understand the story and bring truth to the role," Senser said. "Working together I got to know him to be a really great guy. It was like we knew each other even though we had just met."

So profound. So touching. The singer continued:

Levi Johnston has encountered an obstacle in his path to the Mayor's office in Alaska: most residents of that state despise him.

This revelation is courtesy of a new survey conducted by Public Policy Polling. In it, Tripp's attention-craving daddy received a 72 percent unfavorable rating, which was scarcely offset by his six percent positive rating.

"It's hard to muster a favorability rating lower than six percent," the company wrote of its findings. "That's about the where the average person off the street we polled on a lark would be, so Johnston may hold this dubious distinction for a long time."

Levi can take solace in setting a record, though: he beat out former presidential hopeful (and proven cheater/liar/despicable human being) John Edwards as the most hated politician in any state. Yes, we just referred to Levi Johnston as a politician.

Levi Johnston is as shocked as we are that Bristol Palin is going to be on Dancing with the Stars this season, but he's got an additional, personal reason:

Throughout two engagements (2008-09, then again briefly this summer) and the entire time they dated in high school, she didn't dance with him once.

Well, with the exception of the horizontal mambo. UP TOP!

Levi claims he has "nothing but warm wishes" for Bristol, who wants to set an example for moms, on the show. That's nice. So will he take over baby care?

Not remotely. Lil Tripp has moved to Los Angeles with Bristol while Levi works on his own show back home in Alaska. Running for mayor is a full time gig.

Bristol Palin, who has already hired a nanny to watch Tripp as she practices for the September 20 premiere, will probably get a few more votes than Levi.

Dancing With the Stars picking Bristol: Right or wrong?

Levi Johnston has just one regret in life.

Not posing nude in Playgirl. Not eschewing birth control and knocking up Bristol Palin out of wedlock. Not selling out his baby mama's famous family again and again.

He just wishes he hadn't apologized to Sarah Palin that time. Why? Because he said then that he lied about Sarah, but in reality, "I never lied about anything."

Levi said on CBS' The Early Show today that he regrets apologizing to Sarah "'cause it kind of makes me sound like a liar. And I've never lied about anything. So that's probably the only thing. The rest of the stuff I can live with."

Johnston is the two-time ex-fiance of Palin's eldest daughter, Bristol, and the father of Bristol's son Tripp. Bristol Palin's pregnancy thrust the couple into the spotlight in 2008 and just landed Bristol a gig on Dancing With the Stars.

Levi, meanwhile, is running for mayor of Wasilla, Alaska. Really.

Will shady personal finances derail Levi Johnston's mayoral campaign?

Doubt it ... dude has no shot regardless. But this certainly can't help!

The former mayor of Wasilla, Ak., Sarah Palin, has been criticized for quitting as Alaska Governor to further a career as a professional celebrity. But at least she pays her bills ... Levi is accused of stiffing his credit card provider, TMZ reports.

Voters tend not to like candidates who can't pay credit card bills, gun store campaign stops be damned. Capitol One Bank filed legal papers claiming Levi never paid $1,178.06 from last year. They want that, plus 19.9 percent interest.

What's in your wallet? A nice chunk of debt.

Levi for Mayor?
