The art of the pimp

What Hacker News says

   I drove through Hof's district last year and picked up his memoir "The Art of the Pimp", which was stacked high in the gas stations.

   Hof was a selfish man with selfish politics, but it was a fascinating read, and weirdly honest; i.e. Hof deliberately did not make himself look good in his own memoir. I have no idea why.

   Nothing per se. But you just don't see many politicians promote such backgrounds as a plus. The guy's book is called "The Art of the Pimp", his really show "cathouse". His attitude to women and employees is horrible. This guy is is just plain sleazy. But he won the republican primary in a red state. He will win.
