Sex Quiz

Virginia Republican Senator George Allen, still entangled in his "Maccaca moment" (and a slew of allegations about racial insensitivity), is attempting to turn the tables on his rival, Democrat James Webb, by highlighting steamy sex scenes in Webb's novels. But as Slate remind us, Webb is far from the only Washingtonian who fancies himself a master of erotic fiction. Slate compiles a long list of cringe-inducing passages from notables such as Lynne Cheyney, Newt Gingrich and--perhaps strangest of all--Jimmy Carter. The challenge? Match the politician with the sex scene. Good luck!
