Remember the Craigslist ad seeking a female with “a history in some aspect of the adult entertainment industry” to run against that Louisiana senator whose past isn’t so clean, David Vitter?



Well, it seems someone has been found who meets this ad checklist. Her name? Stormy. Porn star Stormy Daniels. There’s a whole “Draft Stormy” movement online, in bright LSU colors even, at www.draftstormy.com. (She’s from Baton Rouge and in porn — why not?)



Someone out there really wants people to be aware of draftstormy.com. Shenanigans received a two-page Draft Stormy directive in the mail, along with some very fine Mardi Gras beads.



The Louisiana Democratic Party has no connection to Stormy or this group that seems to be promoting her without her involvement. On the site is a disclaimer: “This website is not authorized by Stormy Daniels or Wicked Pictures.”



“The Louisiana Democratic Party is not affiliated with the ‘Draft Stormy’ initiative — that movement is a nonpartisan, grass-roots effort,” Scott Jordan, spokesman for the Louisiana Democratic Party, told us. He added: “If their recruitment effort works, it will surely be interesting, for example, to hear David Vitter explain his vote against the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act to Stormy Daniels.”



One Louisiana political observer told us with a sly Seinfeld reference, “They’re definitely overreaching. What’s next, are they going to draft Buck Naked?”



Vitter’s office, per usual, didn’t return our call.



We like these statements back to back:



“This is an opportunity for us to promote bold, positive and substantive reforms rooted in our core principles; and opportunity to be more than the party of ‘no.’”— NRCC e-mail from John A. Boehner, Jan 20



And: “Last night Nancy Pelosi asked Republicans to join her in maxing out the country’s credit card — Republicans said ‘NO!’”— Pete Sessions in an NRCC e-mail Friday
