Editor’s note: Perhaps one of the most colorful candidates running for governor is Mary “Mary Carey” Cook. She agreed to a telephone interview with The Rip.
Q: Can you explain “Porn For Pistols?”
A: That is kind of one of my attention-grabbing ideas. Anyone that has an illegal gun that they don’t have a permit on can come trade it in for films. You get 10 films per gun.
Q: The budget cuts have hurt colleges. If you win, what will you do to help students?
A: To help students I would have my live webcams in the governor’s mansion. If I charge $20 a person, and get 500,000 people per country, we’re looking at like 2 million people joining at $20 a person. That will be a lot of extra money coming in that will go to the colleges and stuff.
Q: So the webcams in the governor’s mansion – will that be just you on these?
A: It will be anyone in the mansion, anyone in the mansion at that time of day. Anyone that comes in will know there’s a live streaming webcam.
Q: So will there be any videos taped in there?
A: Umm, at this point, I probably wouldn’t make any pornos while I’m in the governor’s office. Hopefully, I’ll continue that when I’m done running for governor.
Q: Your slogan is “We’ve had Brown, we’ve tried Gray, now it’s time for some blonde.” Are you a true blonde?
A: Yes I am, but if you want to find out for sure, you can check some of my movies.
Q: Arnold Schwarzengger has been accused of having group sex in the ’70s, how do you think he would do in the adult movie business?
A: I think he would be great. He’s really hot and he’s got a good body, so I think he would do really well.
Q: Would you like to have him as a leading man in one of your movies?
A: Oh, I would love to have sex with Arnold. He’s a hotty.
Q: How do you think your job experience will help you as governor?
A: Well, I think I’m a good leader you know, doing porn has made me a good leader. (She pauses, and then starts talking to someone else in the room.) Britney, look at Britney. There’s a Britney Spears thing on. I love Britney.
Q: What did you think about that kiss with her and Madonna?
A: I think it was awesome, although I don’t think it’s good for kids to see it and stuff.
Q: What would you tell the students at this college to convince them to vote for you?
A: I would tell them to vote for me because I’m 23, so I’m pretty much at a college student age. I know what it’s like to be a college student because I was one up until a year and a half ago.
Q: On a scale of one to three X’s, what do you think your chances of winning are?
A: Which one’s the highest?
Q: Three.
A: Umm, I think my chances of winning are one.
Q: Is there anything else you would like to add?
A: Tell everyone to go to marycareyforgovernor.com and clubmary.
