Poll question: Vote For Best-Looking Dem
Edited on Mon Jan-31-05 09:01 PM by Dinger
You know who I voted for...

I know there will be many I inadveretently omitted, but I'd need thousands of choices, so I apologize for those I left out.

2. Harold Ford?
Negative. I like the guy, but don't consider him attractive. Kinda weird looking IMO. As far as pure looks go, I'd say Obama, Clark, or Edwards rank highly, but they all take a back seat to the king of camelot himself. WTF do I know though? I'm a straight male. My wife thinks Clark is sexy, so I guess that's where the family vote will go.

12. Harry Ford is hella hot.
Oh yes, he's cute.

He's a few years older than me, and single. I'm just saying.

:silly:

33. Ford it is...
I've meet most the nominees up there either at DNC functions or in broadcasters' green rooms and I have to give the nod to the movie-star good looks of Harold Ford. I know he's not left enough for the folks here but he's got EXACTLY the right charisma to win national elections. By the way, Clark photographs far better than he actually looks. Obama is hot but he's also funny-looking; depends on the angle of the camera. In person, he doesn't strike one as a movie star like fresh-faced Harold Ford does.

LOOKS are everything in politics.

and Bill Nelson, in an old-Western, saloon shoot-out kind of way.

Absolutely STUNNING in person. Big blue eyes, petite, lovely. TV does not do her justice.

Charlie Rangel is a real manly man, he has that uptown savoir faire that commands respect and attention.

20. I don't get the Wes Clark thing
I mean, he's not UNattractive... I just don't see him as some kind of sex symbol. He's distunguished-looking, I guess, with his uniform and white hair. But in a poll with JFK Jr? Come on!

27. I don't either
And how more here really think Wes Clark is better looking than JFK Jr is beyond me. Or Obama or Edwards for that matter.

I think it's his personality they are attracted to because based just on physical appearance I just don't see it. The guy is super short and very average & plain looking.

55. May I ask your age?
That may be a factor in people's votes. I myself at 41 find Wes Clark very attractive. I can see where a much younger person may not be nearly as impressed.

(This has been a drive-by post by the Blue State Red Pen, who actually voted for John Kerry in this poll, because he's hot too and he needs a mandate!)

34. Does make you wonder.....
as of the two that appear to be the favorite, one is dead and the other is not. Mmmmmmm, maybe the ones with less imagination (favoring the living over the dead) are greater in numbers?

38. I've saw it too
and as a man, I have to give it up for a 60 years old looking the way that he does. Pretty impressive even from a straight male point of view. Think that I started my own exercise program shortly after seeing that photo in some big magazine. Couldn't stand to have someone that much older look that much better than me.

41. Actually, it just proves that SOME non Clark fans on DU
are just Jell-ous....that some would prefer a live guy over a dead one.

I don't think that one has to be blind to see what some see. I think that knocking someone elses tastes in what is good looking is pretty disrepectful to those making that choice, and totally uncalled for.....Don't you? Should we pick who you decide, or is this still a free country in reference to this kind of choice? Let me know, would ya?

43. Personally?
Edited on Tue Feb-01-05 02:42 PM by HeatherG.
Who is the most conventionally handsome? JFK Jr. I voted for John Kerry though. I like the way he looks. He is different looking, but still handsome to me. The others don't stand out so much. If you showed pictures of these guys to non-political types they would probably pick JFK Jr., John Edwards, or Harold Ford Jr. Clark does look good for a man of his age. I thought Al Gore was very handsome when he was younger. He has put on a lot of weight again.

unlike his brother Andrew, Chris is drop dead gorgeous! Hot! Named one of The 50 Most Beautiful People in the World 1997(People Magazine). Lawyer, reporter, now a contributor to "Primetime Live" (ABC Diane Sawyer). As intelligent & eloquent as his father, too. Dems ought to beg him to run for office, he's got it all!
