Stormy Daniels storms on in Senate race!

"He ran for the Senate on a family values, anti-sex education platform, and he’s caught with prostitutes. That’s hypocritical. Call me what you will, but you can’t call me a hypocrite." So says the former porn star Stormy Daniels, the proud winner of the 2007 Golden G-string award, who is running in a US Senate race against a Christian family-values Republican shamed after being caught cavorting with prostitutes.

The shamed Republican is David Vitter. He's got his troubles hanging out on the washing line! The Times reports that "few think Ms Daniels can actually beat Mr Vitter next year but her candidacy is an uncomfortable reminder for a Republican party as to why it has been so resoundingly rejected by US voters." But the point is some think she can win. George Bush is now firmly of the opinion that he should never have got mixed up with the so-called Christian right. "Those whackos" he calls them. Is Vitter one of the whackos? And if he's been cavorting with prostitutes what else may he have done? He says he had "asked for and received forgiveness from God and my wife" as if God and his wife were in the same room at the time.

The voters of Lousiana have a good choice. Between an incumbent politician who has fallen short and a woman who has apparently nothing to hide. I'd say this. If it's straightforward no-nonsense talk and action you want from your Senate representative, then Stormy Daniels may be your woman.

She'd uncover the hypocrites, cut to the chase and keep the spinners and deceivers at bay. Sounds like the kind of representation I'd go for.
