Spicing Up The LA Senate Race In 2010

From Stephen Sabludowsky at Bayou Buzz:

To date, there has been no politico to “belly up to the bar” to take on US Senator David Vitter, so perhaps that is why someone with an admirable belly and other anatomical parts has decide to jump into the US Senate ring.

I had heard about the possibility, but, then, today, I received the email. Perhaps, you might have received it also on the same computer in which you receive the David Vitter updates.

In bold, the email says, “DraftStormy Storms DC Mardi Gras”.

Quoting from the email:

Campaign to draft Baton Rouge native into the 2010 Louisiana Senate Race launches, stresses campaign is about the economy, sexy.

Washington DC—Against the backdrop of the annual Washington Mardis Gras, DraftStormy, a non-partisan grassroots movement to draft Baton Rouge native Stormy Daniels into the 2010 Louisiana Senate race, celebrated its official launch on Thursday.

To commemorate the launch, DC Mardis Gras attendees were greeted Thursday morning with a complimentary string of Mardis Gras beads featuring the soon-to-be iconic DraftStormy logo in metallic pink on a white medallion. Hours before, the official DraftStormy website went live.

Inviting Louisianans and Americans to "Join the Storm" the website features a petition page along with an extensive overview of Stormy Daniels and her qualifications to tackle some of the biggest issues facing both the Pelican State and the nation in general.

For example, a section titled, "It's the Economy, Sexy," examines how the current economic crisis is impacting all sectors of the economy including the adult entertainment industry.

Stormy makes a lot of sense. Why isn't Vitter in jail? The DC madam, Deborah Jeane Palfrey, committed suicide last May after she was convicted and sentenced to prison. Is it possible that Louisiana could have a senator who would tell the truth?

Rich Sanchez did a pretty good job with the interview yesterday, except that he might have mentioned Deborah Jean Palfrey's death.
