There’s been much speculation about who will challenge sex scandal plagued David Vitter in his 2010 re-election bid for U.S. Senate. The latest name to emerge: Stormy Daniels. That’s Baton Rouge exotic dancer turned adult film industry star Stormy Daniels , who is now being recruited to run against Vitter on the Web site draftstormy.com. According to the Web site, “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. Stormy’s real world experience and special understanding of the economic hardships facing Louisianans and Americans make her uniquely qualified to take on the tough challenges we face.”
The Web site is likely the latest installment of a campaign that started last year with a pair of craigslist ads. While the first ad solicited a candidate, the second ad sought volunteers for the campaign, stating, “We have found our porn star, and she needs a staff.” Sure would be interesting to figure out who is behind this.

I haven't heard anybody talk about the Stormy Daniels book - Vote for Stormy Daniels - It was released Fourth of July Weekend. My wife got the paper back in the mail Wednesday. The author says she is Deborah Palfrey, the prostitute that Senator David Vitter was caught with. I think it is some college prank. I got the number on the back cover here, isbn: 978-1448657827, 'Vote for Stormy Daniels' by Deborah Palfrey.
I saw your article on her and thought I would write you.
Sincerely,
Gary Hillard

An effort to restore a shuttered dancehall and document other vacant or razed honky-tonks could serve as a model for saving an endangered species of entertainment.
Lafayette’s gene pool has been host to a long line of eccentric characters who have blurred the lines between crazy, genius, disturbed and curiously entertaining.
