Paul Thomas delivers a sensational performance as candidate Nicholas Stern, a liberal Democratic congressman running for the U.S. Senate in New York. But the truth is, he's a complete fraud, a corrupt, sexist, and misogynistic man who chooses campaign volunteers based on whether they can satisfy his carnal desires. His campaign spokesperson and director of operations is Tommy Corona (a Joey Silvera at his peak), whom Stern once released from prison and who now returns the favor as his right-hand man, covering up his sex scandals and providing him with volunteer staff. But everything seems to change when journalist Elvira Lawrence (a sensational and dazzling Annette Haven) enters the picture. She suspects the dubious origin of the campaign funds and decides to investigate them against the advice of her own boss, who doesn't want to be implicated in the politician's secrets. Definitely just another day in American politics.

Ron Sullivan (aka Henri Pachard) directed this excellent film that parodies Michael Ritchie's classic, "The Candidate" (1972), starring Robert Redford and Peter Boyle. The alluring Joyce Snyder (who plays Nannette Collier in a non-sexual role) co-wrote this masterpiece of classic adult cinema with Pachard. It's so believable and well-made that, were it not for its explicit content, it could easily rank among the best political dramas of the era. The underrated Annette Heinz also delivers a fantastic performance as the innocent Jodee, an intern in love with the candidate, who is exploited by him in his fundraising schemes for sex. And it is precisely from this premise that the essence of this magnetic story emanates, a story that has become a classic for those who frequented adult theaters seeking a good story peppered with generous doses of sex and a highly erotic narrative elegance.
