File under: you just can't make this shit up.
Meet Jacob Rush, 35 years old, lawyer, and candidate for the GOP primaries for Florida-03:
"Conservative Straight Shooter"
This is also Jacob Rush:
Yes, that's him on the left AND on the right.
And here is his bio at his campaign website:
About - Jake Rush for Congress
Now, read:
The bizarre double life of conservative congressional hopeful Jake Rush - SaintPetersBlog
There are some unbelievable sexual quotes at the news article, very disturbing, that you can read at the link.
This is being reported all over the place:
Even by FL standards, Jake Rush campaign is 100 percent strange | Naked Politics

You can read Mr. Rush's response here:
The campaign's a stage and Jake Rush says he's being attacked for merely acting | Naked Politics
He admits to being a gamer and for the company that has been "outed".
This part kind of stuck out:

Ok, my gut tells me that guy is not gonna unseat Republican Tea-Party Rep. Ted Yoho in the primary, anyway. Not sure how many people are into a Rep. who does rape role playing by night.
But the story DOES raise one issue, namely:
How vulnerable we all are, all of us who type anything on the internet.
There is no such thing as scrubbing data completely. In the age of Google-cache and things like the "Way Back Machine", every blog entry, every uploaded graphic or vid or aud file, even if deleted from your server, can be restored, because backups are being kept all the time.
THAT IS SCARY.
Do I think the guy should be disqualified because he's a gamer? Nope, not really. Maybe the Gamers here would like to speak a word about this.
But these kind of sexual forays usually don't go really well for politicians seeking a higher office.
And mind you, we are probably only at the tip of the iceberg. The one quote from the article above that I did not quote, for decency's sake (you will have to go to the link to read it), is probably one of thousands of entries the dude made. Just think of how many thousands of posts most of us make here.
I DO think it is absolutely hypocritical for the dude to claim to be a Christian and then be occulting late at night on the internet and would wager that his Pastor would probably like to have a word or two with him. Would you like to have a Rep. who types about wanting to tie up maidens and rape them? Or get tied up himself... I sure as hell wouldn't.
This story may just win the prize for weird of weird in 2014.
Updates to come....

About - Jake Rush for Congress
Now, read:
The bizarre double life of conservative congressional hopeful Jake Rush - SaintPetersBlog
Rush as Chazz Darling, Staas van der Winst and a host of other roles was a long-time member of the Minds Eye Society, otherwise known as Camarilla.
Minds Eye, or MES, is a nationwide community of gothic-punk role-players who come together to take on personas of vampires and other supernatural beings (known as Kindred), dealing with night-to-night struggles against their own bestial natures, hunters, and each other.
MES has a number of different sects, with names such as Vampire: The Requiem; Vampire: The Masquerade; Changeling: The Lost; Geist the Sin Eaters; New World of Darkness and Werewolf the Forsaken, among others.
Using various domains through both table games and live action Rush participated as dozens of characters, with names like Darling, van de Winst, Johan Gambrys, Zane Daily, The Kriesler, Archbishop Kettering and more.
MES, extremely trademarked and organized, is by no means a trivial enterprise. It is a highly regimented association of like-minded people, complete with its own rituals and performances.
The governing body not only has elected officers, a Board of Directors and someone called a national storyteller, but they conduct monthly meetings, hold trade shows, and present an annual international convention, which in 2014 is on April 9-13 in San Antonio, Texas....
Rush, as a member of the Kindred of Gainesville, is not some teenager playing Dungeons and Dragons in his moms basement. This is a game for adults, with adult themes...
...Listed under other interests on his bio page, Rush describes himself as a sworn officer fo real, suggestive of his double life in the occult world and the real one, as a lawyer and Alachua County sheriffs deputy.
By June 2013, the future GOP candidate beginning to aspire to elected office began to try to cleanse his past, starting with a frenzy of image deletions from the wiki, with some of the most outrageous ones deleted on March 7, 2014.
However, not everything was scrubbed.
Images that remained under the attorneys name range between the utterly childish and truly unsettling especially for someone wanting to be a serious law and order GOP congressional candidate who leans to the right of the Tea Party.
For example, images not erased unlike one deleted photo uploaded in 2009 titled Put on my Rape Face illustrate a disturbing spectrum, ranging from the silly and mild to unsettling portrayals of bizarre, ritualistic scenes of the occult, book burnings even a succubus.
Among the photos still available on the wiki are:
Burning books
Aiming shotguns at dogs
Dressed as a vampire
Dressed as a demon
Satanic symbolism
Being chained and gagged
Bloody angel wings...
...Chazz Darling appears to be one of Rushs favorite personas. As Darling, Rush published regularly in both the Camarilla Wiki Project, a wide range of message boards and sites connected with White Wolf Publishing, the company which created the first Vampire: The Masquerade role-playing game in 1991.

This part kind of stuck out:
As a practicing Christian, I am deeply offended that the opposing campaign and their supporters would take a gaming and theatre hobby and mischaracterize it,
