Apparently this tactic has worked before, for good reason
BUDAPEST (Reuters) - A Hungarian TV hostess sat naked Wednesday to announced she is running for a seat in the European Parliament as candidate of the upstart Union Party.
Anettka Feher, about 30, with close-cropped black hair, sat atop a table, legs crossed, displaying her petite and muscular body wearing nothing but a shy smile and some jewelry.
Besides her visible assets, she believes disappointment with the political establishment will give her enough votes to secure a Brussels seat in the June elections.
Hungary joins the EU on May 1 and has been allotted 24 seats in the European Parliament. Anettka rejects comparisons with Ilona Staller, a former Italian porn star of Hungarian extraction, better known as Cicciolina.
Cicciolina was famed for baring her breasts during a successful campaign for a seat in the Italian parliament with the Radical Party in 1987.
Cicciolina also ran for a seat in the Hungarian parliament in the 2002 general elections, but abandoned her campaign after a handful of disappointing meetings with voters in her native 10th district of Budapest.
"If they (Hungarian mainstream politicians) think I am just another Cicciolina, they are in for a big surprise: I am smart, and I have a daily four-hour presence on a national television channel," Anettka said.
It's a pity none of the American women in office are young and bold enough to do this, especially a presidential candidate- anyone who does that has serious balls(metaphorically speaking).

We formed a mock government back in a high school summer camp, complete with politcal parties, elections, etc. One idiot's whole plaform was holding up a pornographic magazine. He lost... big time...
If it doesn't work on horney, male American teenagers, I don't think it would work at all here.

It would encourage younger people to get into politics though.
"Sign up, get naked and tell people what to do!"
"Oh no, oh yeah, tell me how can it be so fair
That we dying younger hiding from the police man over there
Just for breathing in the air they wanna leave me in the chair
Electric shocking body rocking beat streeting me to death"

Con: Senator Amanda Vanstone giving it all for the cause.
Pro: Hot, young liberals stripping out of conservative business suits.
Our election could have a swimsuit competition.
The ugly would get voted out easily. Thus encouraging a very fluid government.
Everyone wins.

Not all that attractive. And for the curious, the link is workplace/school safe. Of course, if my local assemblywoman tried this...I'd probably switch parties. She's a total babe. The woman on the left.
