Strip clubs focusing on va-va-va-voter drives (actual headline)
Beloit - Joe Herbrand's eyes shifted from the document on the cocktail table in front of him.
The woman on stage at The Isabella Queen peeled off her top, arched her back against the pole and swung her hips side to side as she stepped out of her thong.

Herbrand put down his pen, took a pull off his beer and strutted up to the stage, bobbing his head with the blaring music. With $2 tucked in his mouth he stood before the stripper as she pulled his head to her chest and clasped the money between her breasts. The 23-year-old from Janesville then sauntered back to his table and picked up his pen.

When he answered the few questions on the form and signed his name, his voter registration was complete.

"I was pretty amped about the situation," Herbrand said. "I've never been asked if I want to vote."

1. I'm telling people the biggest swing-voter issue could be porn.
There's those 18-35 year-old male Republicans that could make a switch when they find out that Ashcroft is taking resources that could be used to fight terrorism and using them to fight pornography.
