Probably the Republicans. They get off more on "illicit" sex. They also have the money and the privilege of being away from their families.

When I was a student at the University of Kansas in the early 80s, I heard a few stories about women KU students who dabbled in sex work to earn a few buck during the 1976 Republican Convention in Kansas City.

And a couple of years ago, some of us joked about how the Christian Coalition held their "Road to Victory" convention just a block away from one of the biggest strip clubs in Washington, DC.

Or let me put this another way: when you drive around the U.S., which area of the country do you see the most strip clubs and adult bookstores along the highways? In "red states" of course.
