The recall election for California Governor Gray Davis, which Ah-nold eventually won, saw porn starlet Mary Carey run for the position. As she markets herself: The Politician You WANT to get screwed by. Here is an excerpt from her website:

During the 2003 California recall, she was an independent candidate, placing tenth in a field of 135 candidates. She ran on a ten (later expanded to eleven) point platform, promising to:

1. Legalize same-sex marriage
2. Tax breast implants
3. Make lap-dances tax deductible
4. Wire the California Governor's Mansion with live web-cams
5. Create a "Porn for Pistols" program to reduce the number of handguns
6. Be a goodwill ambassador to attract business to the state
7. Make those drawing unemployment insurance do jury duty for their pay
8. Fight the attacks on the porn industry by John Ashcroft and the U.S. Department of Justice
9. Allow bars to stay open until 4:00 A.M.
10. Address the AIDS epidemic
    
    
    In June 2005, Carey announced her bid for Lieutenant Governor of California as an Independent in 2006. She also attended a GOP fund-raiser with the president of the company that produces her porn videos and announced that she is a Republican. Given her previous political record, however, it remains to be seen if Californians will take her candidacy seriously. She would not be the first adult actress to win public office if her future bids are successful, as Italian porn-star Cicciolina was elected to the Italian Parliament.

    Many members of the press have forecasted that she could do something inappropriate at the dinner or arrive in inappropriate attire as a publicity stunt; however, she was dressed formally for the occasion and did nothing unusual. Some, including Rev. Donald Wildmon of the American Family Association, believe that her new political affiliation is an organized attempt to embarrass Republicans, by showing a porn actress in the same dining hall with President Bush and her affiliation with the Republican Party.

    She has also said that she hopes to run on a major party nomination for President of the United States.

    Personally, I prefer porn actors to politicians because they both essentially do the same thing, but politicians are piously still in denial. :p
