Tampa Strip Clubs Prepare For GOP Convention With Sarah Palin Stripper, Online Chat Rooms

NY Daily News

With high-rolling Republicans flooding into Tampa Bay, Fla., this August for the party's convention, local strip club owners hope many of them spill into their champagne rooms.

The Tampa Bay area boasts more than 40 clubs. Some expect their business to more than quadruple during the massive, four-day Republican National Convention, WFLA-TV reported.

To get a leg up on the competition, some are adding special attractions to help entice GOP bigs.

So while top Republicans work the conventioneers during the day, a Sarah Palin doppelganger will be working the same crowd at night. A strip club called Thee DollHouse, which got a $1 million facelift in advance of the big event, has hired a look-alike - sporting glasses and her trademark updo - to entertain hard-working Republicans after-hours.

I think we can all agree that this is an area where private-sector innovation outshine what the Government could do...

2. Hilarious! The best line of that piece was the last one...

Tampa Bay was the setting for the Channing Tatum strip flick, "Magic Mike," but no word on whether a "Magic Mitt" will be entertaining Republican ladies at any of the male clubs.

11. How About "Magic Mitch McConnell"?

He only shakes his booty for the big donors though. Think Koch Bros. and the champagne room.

5. Not a problem...

7. Video Surveillance

should be organized at entrance to each strip club to post embarrasing video of high profile goopers going in/out. Would take a large effort, but would be well worth it.

8. Oh barf.

9. The family values dudes are coming to town

and rather than the strip clubs taking this as an excuse for a vacation, they are ramping it all up?

Sounds about right.

10. Is it sad that I recognize the Palin impersonator on the left side?
