Porn Star 'Stormy' Daniels Planning Run for Senator

Sure, it may be a publicity stunt – but if so it's working.

Next week, porn star Stormy Daniels launches her "Listening Tour" across Louisiana. The star of such films as "Operation Desert Stormy" will appear in Baton Rouge on Tuesday and New Orleans on Wednesday in order to "meet with Louisiana men and women and listen to the issues and concerns they struggle with everyday" and gauge a potential run against Sen. David Vitter (R.).

The untraditional path into politics for Daniels, a 29-year-old with no party affiliation at present, began in February when fans launched the website DraftStormy.com to encourage a run.
When POLITICO spoke with Daniels at the time, she seemed intrigued by the idea and said "I wanted to take over the world and I guess 'senator' is a good place to start, right? I've been handed a golden opportunity and I should take advantage of it." - Politico Story
