Adult website operator among Rand Paul donors

By BRUCE SCHREINER
Associated Press Writer


LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) -- Republican Rand Paul's campaign for Senate in conservative Kentucky wouldn't say Friday whether it will return money from a donor who runs an adult website featuring photos of lingerie-clad and nude women.

Federal Election Commission records show that Cyan Banister, who founded California-based Zivity.com with her husband, contributed $4,800 to Paul earlier this year.

Banister told The Associated Press in an e-mail Thursday that she sees Paul's limited government views as appealing, and said she likes his "strong values that resonate with mine."

Zivity.com's photos show women posing in little - or nothing - and are described by the website as works of art.

Paul is relying on solid support from conservative voters in his hotly contested race against Democrat Jack Conway.

"A lot of Kentuckians would have a problem with a candidate accepting money from organizations that are tearing down the culture
," said Martin Cothran, a policy analyst for The Family Foundation of Kentucky. "And we assume that the Paul campaign understands that."
