Big Boob(s) in Ashvegas

The District 3 County Commissioner race in Buncombe County is an all-Republican circus, with two extremely conservative challengers (until yesterday) trying to oust a Republican incumbent. Whoever wins the primary takes the seat.

Until yesterday, a prime Tea Party candidate, Lewis Clay, was in the race to win, but then it came to light that Mr. Clay had "likes" on his Facebook page of "Bored and Available" and "Big Boobs."

Oops.

The "Big Boobs" site is apparently not a tribute page for extremely conservative politicians who can't keep their appetites under wraps, though that would be appropriate.
