1. Saddle up, cougar.

[Bobbieo]

5. Becasue Sarah Palin is considered sexy - by some- I suppose that also gives her a political advantag

Why has this great country been reduced to a sexual image?

[Bruno A. lives]

18. Is she really still around?

My God, the creatures that come out of the woodwork!! BAL

[monmouth]

2. Sally Quinn may have been over-served....n/t

[KingFlorez]

3. Obviously, she doesn't know or doesn't care about how pathetic that sounds

"If you want votes, be a ho!"

[FLyellowdog]

4. So now we vote according to one's looks?

I so hope this isn't going to become the norm. :crazy:

[dbmk]

9. I doubt that it does not play most peoples votes

To some degree.

[sushi]

13. That's how it is

I doubt many people would vote for an overweight person. If in addition to being well-educated and articulate, you're slim and goodlooking, you're 90% there!

[FLyellowdog]

25. It saddens me to say that I agree with you. :( nt

[RZM]

27. Don't forget bald too . . .

True, you can get elected without a gorgeous mane, but having one certainly helps. I'd like to see a comparison of baldness rates in male Senators with those in the general male population (controlling for the age range in the Senate). I'm guessing it's lower in the Senate. Though I do think this is an evolutionary thing -- people in many different cultures and prefer good looks and nice hair in their public figures -- Mitch McConnell being a notable exception.

6. Project your weakness into a strength...

classic Rovian opposite-world mental gymnastics.

[hatrack]

7. Sally Quinn? Is she still alive?

:eyes:

[TheEuclideanOne]

10. I don't believe so

In a related note... "Name recognition".... How does that work? "Who was that guy?, he looks familiar. Didn't I see him in Cosmo 20 years ago?" Ah, right that is Bob what's his face!!!! I am going to vot for him!

[ProgressOnTheMove]

8. Whatever the result today we keep rolling, obviously we won't roll very far ...

with Brown in office to completely stop any fianancial refrom or GLBT rights. But we can only try, we have to come to terms with this maybe the day the Obama presidency ended and work from there. Hopefully I'm very very wrong. Please MA prove me wrong I need to be wrong this time. Edit: Just heard there is a high turnout in MA maybe we'll be OK.

11. Why does just because a man looks good it makes him a good candidate

If a woman was gorgeous no one would vote for her, because they would call her an air head. They talk about ethic predjuice. I think there is more predjuice out there against woman than any other kind. And by those nudeo pictures I think he looks like a greasy hair ball. You see all the good looking "so called hunks" all shiny and buff and this guy creeps you out.

[Cleita]

16. Some of the biggest assholes and dumbest guys I have met

were good looking and would have been full enough of themselves to pose nude if someone had asked them.

[sallyseven]

21. What a snot she is. Brown is a big jerk

Why doesn't she invite him to run in her state. She is a slut.

[jmowreader]

24. I challenge your fallacious assumption

The sitting governor of Michigan, Jennifer Granholm

The sitting governor of Washington, Christine Gregoire


Did you know you can google "photos of Caribou Barbie" and get pictures of Palin?

[wisteria]

12. He was nude-not semi-nude. n/t

[Cleita]

14. If he wins, does that mean Levi Johnston can run against Sarah Palin in

the primaries? That would be a race I would love to watch.

:evilgrin:

[pscot]

15. How "HUGE" was it, Sally

Must be pretty impressive.

[PSzymeczek]

23. By all accounts,

smaller than his hand.

[boomerbust]

17. Wow

Slippery Sally chimes in.

[silenttigersong]

19. Only the party of Rape

would look beyond this guys sneer about the curling iron,further more you would think Sarah Palin would say something about this guy since she thinks David Letterman is such a sexist putz.:spank:

[Writer]

20. Sally: "Because, as we know, women vote based on penis size." n/t

[sulphurdunn]

22. Nah! Lots of women voted for George Bush,

and he doesn't have a penis. He has a wee-wee.

[underpants]

26. and on Bill O's show ...imagine that

:think:

[burning rain]

28. LOL, well, Bill Boyarsky, an early biographer of Ronald Reagan....

referred to him as having benefited from "the hormone vote" in the 1966 California governor's race (referring in particular to suburban wives who had the hots for him).
