Maybe he should run as the DERM candidate instead of the DEM candidate.

But the dancer label keeps popping up.

Hah! I knew that politician was a giant chicken. Chase him out of town!

[Jonathon Spectre]

I really don't understand why what he used to do mattered. It's not illegal.

Oh, but the Live Like I Do Brigade probably don't like it.

[parsifal]

So do you think he will have a problem with his hanging chads? parsy.

[parsifal]

Or, will he tell the voters that he did not make a full disclosure? parsy.

In Colorado here we had a stripper run for mayor in georgetown, she ended up being ousted for smoking pot and falsifying police statement that said she was attacked. Come to find out she staged the whole thing for sympathy

[scab4faa]

He said his performances were tasteful....



To who?

I really don't understand why what he used to do mattered. It's not illegal.

When a felon's not engaged in his employment,
Or hatching one of his felonious plans,
His capacity for innocent enjoyment
Is just as great as any honest man's.

Announcing to the world that you are willing to live outside the boundaries of polite society is no way to get me to want to follow you. If you have turned around from such, well and good--but you then have to lead in that opposite direction. Or else I don't assume that you are superior to Slick Willie, ready to order our armed forces into action for dishonorable purpose.

Democrat, Republican or Independant Mr.Chuck Kalogianis has only one problem.

He did his striptease in front of women and not in front of males who think they are women.

Oh he's a demorat! What a surprise!!

And what stand on the issues is taken by a guy who considers this behavior "tasteful"? One example from his website:

A Woman's Right to Choose

While I am Pro-Choice, I am not Pro-Abortion. Even though my wife, Kathy, and I find that solution a morally difficult choice, we believe nothing should interfere with a woman's right to choose. It is a private matter between the woman, her doctor or clergy, and her family or loved ones with whom she chooses to consult. It is not something which belongs under government control.

To make abortion illegal would create an underground female society of outlaws forcing women to return to the so called "coat hanger" days of back street clinics. To a place where "surgeons" are unlicensed and without adequate training using primitive tools that risks the lives of the women being (mis)treated.

Anyone harming or invading the privacy of a person making such a tough decision should know: They are breaking the law by violating protections guaranteed by the US Constitution.

I haven't checked, but I'll bet this is the only time he cites the Constitution--except, perhaps, for the protection the First Amendment provides exotic dancers in thongs and Big-Bird regalia.

I am actually the deejay for Chuck's old show. It was not a true strip show...i t was a male burlesque, they kept their clothes on. And Chuck was probably the nicest guy to work with.

[floriduh voter]

thanks for the ping. Look at those thighs and drumsticks. LOL

[floriduh voter]

He can't defeat Bilirakis. Bilirakis is half rino and half conservative.

[Calpernia]

Do we get to see him perform during a debate?

[Calpernia]

He does get donations
