Politics and sex. Strange bedfellows, but somehow the two just can't get the sheets untangled.

This week, an error in Embarq's white pages brought New Jersey callers looking for the Sussex County Democratic Committee to a phone sex line instead. Callers were invited by a seductive lady voice to call a number for sexy good times.

And earlier this month, callers looking for Maine's First District Republican Congressional candidate, Charlie Summers, were instead greeted by a recorded message prompting them to call a sex line.

Both listings have since been corrected, but seriously -- two of these snafus in one month? Both on campaign lines? The coincidence is killing us, yet we somehow aren't surprised.
