Honestly, does a dominatrix have any chance of becoming NV Governor?

Yes, yes, I know it isn't fair, but Leola McConnell is facing two Democratic challengers in the Nevada primary, and then she'll have to square off against the GOP nominee. No matter how much dirt she tries to dish out on Bush or Bennett or whomever, she'll be faced with people on all sides saying, "But you're a dominatrix! A sex worker (of sorts)! What practical experience can you bring to the Governor's Office? What am I gonna tell my 9-year-old daughter about your past?"

I hope Leola isn't BSing everyone about Nero's sexuality, but campaigning for Governor? That's a completely different ball of wax.

1. chance

No more than a drunken liar/rich fratboy/failed CEO had of becoming President of the US.

2. Perhaps she can "whip Nevada into shape."

3. I guess as much chance as

a professional wrestler and a movie star?

4. From what I've seen of her I like her

She seems to speak from her heart and has a good head on her shoulders. That doesn't mean I think she can win, America is still very prudish about sex. But hey, I would pick her over a good many other politicians.

Plus, think of her clients if she ever did win. Imagine a good beating from a woman who's the governor. Her business will triple.

5. Did an ex glam wrestler have any chance to become Gov. of MN?

Just asking. :hi:

6. Jesse Ventura was a Navy SEAL, too

If McConnell has any military experience, now might be the time for her to mention it.

7. You have a point, but,

Americans are more likely to vote for a celebrity wrestler than an unknown dominatrix. Americans are in love with the kind of kick ass, showman mentality that Ventura represents. He was also a movie star, and Americans knew him from films like Predator annd The Running Man. However, BDSM is more of a subculture that is largely misunderstood by Americans and especially conservatives (I mean your average church voter, not the politicans who always seem to get caught with them).

Still, ya never know.
