| Just what Louisiana needs .. a porn star for a Senator |
| 2009-02-11 |
| NEW ORLEANS, Louisiana (CNN) -- Fans of porn star Stormy Daniels are drafting her to run for the U.S. Senate seat in Louisiana now held by Republican Sen. David Vitter. And it's no racy gimmick, they say. The Draft Stormy Web site says that "2010 presents the Pelican State with the opportunity to start with a clean slate -- to elect a representative that we can be proud of, who will work tirelessly, and who will challenge the status quo. We at the Draft Stormy campaign feel that Baton Rouge native Stormy Daniels is best suited to fulfill these duties." Vitter is famous -- or infamous -- for his link to the "D.C. Madam," the woman who ran a prostitution ring. Elected to the Senate in 2004, he admitted to "a very serious sin in my past" in July 2007 after his phone number turned up in records of an escort service run by the late Deborah Jeane Palfrey, known as the D.C. Madam. Daniels, 29, isn't affiliated with a party but is embracing the idea of a possible candidacy. She said she's planning a "listening tour" oooh goody another 'listening tour' around Louisiana to talk about a range of matters, including the economy -- which along with women in business and protection of children are the three issues listed on her Web site. When told Vitter can be a tough opponent, she said she's "always up for a good fight." she is probably no newcomer to mud "I think anyone that knows me ... is more than aware of that," Daniels said. "Politics can't be any dirtier of a job than the one I am already in." |

| #11 To be blunt, Vitter's voting against the spendulus, and I'm not sure there really are any other important issues at the moment. |

| #7 And I must admit, she would increase the eye appeal of the Senate by several orders of magnitude (even as only 1% of a weighted average!) She seems to have employed a very gifted 'enhancement' surgeon. |

| #6 Vitter's Republican. Daniels is independent. Not sure if she'd challenge him in the Republican primary, the Democrat primary, or the general election. Vitter's such a creepy hypocrite I could easily vote against him - but not if it meant increasing Reid's hold on the Senate. |

| #4 Hmmmmm. I'll have to study this very carefully...... Yes, I do believe I could vote for her. But not a Louisiana resident. But, Glenmore is. He can represent the Burg on our behalf. |
