LIKES 'EROTICA' Barkley
An average U.S. senator looking for a date doesn't need to do much more than stroll on down Pennsylvania Avenue to the Capitol Grille and take his pick from the cloud of obsequious Washington types and star-struck interns. But Dean Barkley isn't your average former senator—he was appointed by former Minnesota Governor Jesse "the Body" Ventura to serve a short, two-month spell in the Senate back in 2002. Now fresh off a divorce and a stint running Kinky Friedman's run for governor in Texas, Barkley is trolling for companionship on Match.com, listing "erotica" as a turn-on and telling the ladies about his love for the "Beatles and Led Zeplin sic."
