Al Sharpton has a new, decades-younger, attractive main squeeze.

The civil rights activist and MSNBC star, 58, is dating 35-year-old Aisha McShaw, a Westchester “personal stylist” who has been seen on Sharpton’s arm at several recent black-tie affairs, including the White House Correspondents Dinner in April and President Obama’s holiday party in December.

Rev Al's old enough and smart enough to know that he's playing the fool with her--but he still does it. He'd see that as a weakness and be embarrassed (that he's thinking with the wrong head).

Seriously though its just the way he's sitting. His left leg is higher than the right causing his upper body to tilt away from her.

You may be right, he may be one of the few people that do look better fat rather thin

Just like if a guy has a mustache since you knew him, and after 10 years he shaves it. You would probably say he looked better with it.

The article says that she's a personal stylist. I guess she's responsible for his new look. I love the suits he wears but they look a little "young" for him. I think the clothing he wears would look better on someone like Toure or J. Capehart.

They're both adults but he looks silly.
