US porn star throws in hand for California governorship race

US porn star throws in hand for California governorship race

LOS ANGELES (AFP) Aug 06, 2003

A US porn star was Tuesday campaigning to join in an increasingly whacky race for the governorship of California, pledging to make lap dances tax deductible and to swap guns for smut if elected.

Mary Carey joins other potential candidates such as "Terminator" movie star and Republican activist Arnold Schwarzenegger and Democratic Hustler magazine publisher Larry Flynt, who also covet the embattled governor's job.

"My goal is to bring happiness to the streets of California," would be politician and adult movie star Carey told reporters as she tried to gather the 65 signatures needed to put her name on the October 7 ballot.

The 22-year-old blonde said her electoral platform would include taxing breast implants to generate revenue and hiring porn stars to help negotiate better wholesale electricity prices in the energy-strapped state.

She also wants to creat a "Porno for Pistols" programme under which gun owners would be urged to swap their weapons for X-rated movies in a bid to reduce violence in the free-wheeling golden state.

"If more guys had orgasms, they'd be less violent," she said, adding that she would present herself as an independent candidate if she achieved the requirements to run by Saturday's deadline for candidacies.

She was clad in a star-spangled bikini top, designer shorts and was tottering on platform shoes as she strutted her stuff in Los Angeles, stopping passers-by to sign her petition.

The 1.76 meter (5 foot 9) X-rated candidate was flanked by her manager and two supporters, one carrying a sign that read "Californians Prefer Blondes," echoing the title of a 1954 Marilyn Monroe movie.

She also came up with a novel solution to a key global problem, global warming: "Wear less clothes."

Actor and former body builder Schwarzenegger was meanwhile due to formally announce Wednesday whether or not he will fight Democratic Governor Gray Davis for his job when special elections to oust him are held in October.

Aides however said he was now inclined not to run for family reasons.

Flynt said Monday he would file his candidacy by Saturday providing polls could prove that Californians would accept a "smut peddler" as their leader and make him a serious candidate.

More than 250 people have taken out application forms to run for the governorship of the most populous, but most broke, US state.

Anyone can run provided they gather 65 signatures from supporters and stump up the 3,500 dollar fee required to stand.

We don't need this crap posted. Its right along the dims talking points. "All chaos will break out on the streets of LA if Gray Out Davis is recalled and porn stars and smut peddles run for governor".

I tried to find a pic that would be appropriate for FR and this is the best I could come up with.

I'd like to think she's wearing underwear.

From her website: www.marycarey.com (I won't provide a hyperlink as it is obviously an adult site.)

Very series.

As I look at it, how can anyone do worse than Gray "Out" Davis? An effing monkey could do a better job.

"If more guys had orgasms, they'd be less violent," she said

This will probably pull the rug out from under Flynt.(pun intended) His voting base will all vote for her.

Watch out for this liberal media approach. Many elections have wacky candidates. The reason the media is spinning the recall this way is that they want to make the recall election appear to be a circus, to minimize the chances that Davis will actually be bounced. Davis can't possibly oppose the recall on his record; he can only run against the process.

And some Californians wonder why the rest of this nation thinks we're all a bunch of fruits, nuts and flakes.

Sakes...
