Gore's Lawyer Arrested in Strip Club Attack

The London Telegraph is wondering if Kendall Coffey, Al Gore's lead attorney in his effort to over turn the election results, is just part of of Fla.'s growing weirdness.

The British paper notes that just this week in South Florida "Five tons of alligator carcasses spilled out of a lorry on to a motorway in Florida this week. In addition, a wheelchair-bound grandmother was arrested for running a family pickpocket operation which netted £35,000 a day, and Miami's former police chief was indicted for pillaging the police pension fund to buy expensive underwear for his girlfriend."

The Telegraph noted also last year's story about "the heavily scarred man found in bed last year with his pet alligator, prompting the Miami Herald to run the deadpan headline: 'Gators in bed is a bad idea.'"

But the London paper says no one takes the cake more than Miami lawyer Kendall Coffey, who earlier this year was supposedly defending Elian Gonzalez from the Clinton-Gore-Reno abduction.

Kendall Coffey is "is pure Florida."

Coffey's background is illuminating.

"One night in 1996 when he still reigned as the US Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, Mr Coffey decided to unwind from another day of drug busting and corruption hunting at a lapdancing bar near Miami called Lipstik."

At the infamous Lipstik lounge, Coffey "ordered a £600 bottle of champagne and retired to a private room with a dancer called Tiffany. Aroused and drunk, he then proceeded to bite her on the arm, leaving her with toothmarks and him in disgrace and out of a job."

The Telegraph wonders if "President" Gore might reward him with a treat at the Lipstik lounge. "Though perhaps he might consider to take a mouth guard this time."
