It's illegal to buy sex.
It's illegal to buy votes.
But a clever bunch of liberals has come (ahem) up with the idea of bartering sex with liberals for conservative pledges not to vote for Bush (The link to the site is not work safe but the article from the Voice is work safe, and has a link to a video with a little feature on the idea)
While the site lists many liberals willing to have sex with conservatives, some of whom claim to be models, it only tallies ONE conservative vote pledged against Bush. Then again, since there are no guarantees that a pledge will translate into a vote, it would seem that the number of pledges isn't the issue. It's pretty good political theater, I figure we'll see it on the news pretty soon.

According to the Voice:
"The group will launch a bus tour through swinger states this summer and will end up at the Republican National Convention on August 30.
As the Republican hordes descend upon New York in search of validation and pleasure, Fuck the Vote will be firmly positioned near the convention site in a bus with a fold-out bed in the back.
While the GOP sells itself at the Garden, Nathan Martin, who started the project, hopes the party's faithful might also sell or trade their votes for sex with hot Fuck the Vote models. "
