Adult film performer/writer Stormy Daniels, who caused a stir when she came to Washington last May to advocate for online child safety, wants to give Sen. David Vitter, R-La., a run for his money. She's contemplating entering the 2010 Louisiana Senate race and has reached out to Hustler magazine publisher Larry Flynt to run her campaign, according to press reports. Daniels told the New Orleans Times-Picayune that while Flynt had nothing to do with the "Draft Stormy" movement she has "reached out to him in the last couple of days."

In recognition of National Internet Safety Month, Daniels appeared at the National Press Club alongside Joan Irvine of the Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection. The group was created more than a decade ago with the goal of eliminating child pornography from the Internet and to help parents prevent children from viewing "age-inappropriate" material online. Their press conference showcased a public service announcement campaign that promoted ASACP's "restricted to adults" label for applicable Web sites and encourages parents to use filtering software. Daniels was presented with ASACP's annual service award Thursday.

If elected, Daniels will join a list of porn stars turned politician, according to the Washington Examiner: "Ilona Staller, better known as Cicciolina, was elected to Italian parliament in 1987. Mimi Miyagi, a Filipina porn star, filed as a Republican gubernatorial candidate in Nevada in 2006. And many Californians are already (more than) familiar with the infamous Mary Carey, who made a very well-publicized run for Governor in 2003."
