What politicians are you the most physically attracted to?

[Pushed To The Left]

This post was inspired by the "John and Jeff Show" episode that was on KLSX last night/early this morning. At the beginning of an hour asking who the "hottest senior citizens" are, both of them were talking about how attracted they were to Speaker Nancy Pelosi, calling her an OWF ("older woman fantasy"). What politicians do you find physically attractive?

[graywarrior]

1. Barney Frank

[SPKrazy]

2. Mary Landrieu

Debbie Wasserman Schwartz from Florida

[graywarrior]

6. She is so cute!!! I love her hair.

[SPKrazy]

17. Yeah, She Is Just Kind Of Hot All Over

as far as politicians go anyway

[BOSSHOG]

45. I'd like for Mary to make me behave

Tell me what a bad boy I am and that I need a spanking. I love it when she pouts.

[Kerrytravelers]

3. John Edwards.

*sigh*

[AspenRose]

21. Ditto

And I love that "ThreatDown" thing in your sig file!

[barb162]

24. oh is he cute or what?

[bluethruandthru]

4. Russ Feingold! n/t

[PassingFair]

19. You'll have to....

arm wrestle me for him....

[Connonym]

32. Russ is mine. Mine I tell you!

I suck at arm wrestling, I'd lose at a battle of wits so how about a slap fight?

[PassingFair]

48. Leg Wrestle!

Winner TAKES ALL!

[southernleftylady]

62. I agree with this one... he is my pick

[spillthebeans]

5. Yulia Timoshenko

but she is a bad billionaire girl

[tinfoil tiaras]

7. John Edwards and Ned Lamont

:loveya: :loveya:

[begin_within]

8. Dario Frommer

[MnFats]

11. sorry but is that guy old enough to run for office?

the photo on the right, especially....."boyish good looks," is what they used to say.

[begin_within]

12. Well, he is the California State Assembly Majority Leader. (D-Glendale/Los Feliz)

[femmocrat]

9. Wes Clark!

He is soooo fine!

[SoyCat]

18. That's what my mom keeps saying...

[Vanje]

10. alas, my 2 crushes are no longer in politics

they are the great Ann Richards. (DU boys, and girls alike no doubt share my infatuation for the late queen of Texas)
I also have long carried a big dykie torch for the retired Colorado congresswoman with the MILE-HIGH cheekbones.... Patricia Schroeder.

Patty we hardly knew ye!

[jakefrep]

13. Stephanie Herseth nt

[hfojvt]

23. useless without pictures

she came to mind for me as well, only because she's from my home state.
http://www.house.gov/herseth/about_stephanie_herseth.html
but good grief, she's a blue dog!

So I have to say I much prefer Tammy Baldwin - member of the Progressive Caucus. Met her in person 8 years ago. She's very attractive. Plus we were both valedictorians in the class of 1980.

29. I like Stephanie Herseth, too

I noticed her when she first ran (unsuccessfully) for the House in '02, and it's been cool to see her success since then. She first won in a special election to replace SD's reckless-driving Rep in early '04 and just this month managed a truly impressive margin of victory (69-percent) for a Democrat in such a dark-red state. Yeah, I wish she weren't a blue dog, but I figure it goes with representing such a conservative state. (Then again, McGovern came out of South Dakota, so maybe not...) But considering how popular she seems to be in SD, she might be a good shot to take on John Thune for the Senate in 2010; it'd be awesome to see him defeated by a Democratic hottie!

[hfojvt]

41. I had the same thought

about her defeating Thune. Then I had to wonder, is she gonna be 35 by election time, since there is an age requirement for Senators. Her bio does not say, but since she had her law degree by 1997, I am guessing she was born in 1972 or 1973 which would make her at least 37 by 2010.

[last_texas_dem]

54. Yeah, she's young looking

Like John Edwards and Barack Obama, Herseth is actually older than her looks indicate. According to her Wikipedia bio, she was born in December of '70, so she'll be old enough to run for the Senate in 2010. And unless Daschle decides to try to take back his old seat from Thune, she may be the most prominent South Dakota Democrat, and would have a good shot at the seat. (I don't really know South Dakota politics that well, though, so there may be some other Dems who would have a good shot.)

[momophile]

14. Barack Obama and Al Gore

dreamy...

[EFerrari]

15. This is so funny to me. Dennis Kucinich looks like a geek and

I would follow him anywhere.

My boyfriends have been always evenly split between the beautiful in fact and the beautiful in brain.

lol


/s->c

[swag]

16. The ones with the shapely asses, of course.

[Anarcho-Socialist]

20. I think Barbara Boxer is very cute

[Reverend_Smitty]

22. I always thought Gavin Newsom, Mayor of SF is pretty hot

I think John Edwards is quite attractive and I can't explain it but I kind of have a "thing" for Al Gore as well

[terrya]

31. Good choice

Gavin Newsom IS hot.

[Dangerously Amused]

25. Howard Dean.

Has my heart right after Gene Kelly.


= sigh =

[Lady Freedom]

30. Have to admit he is cute!!

:loveya:

[Dangerously Amused]

34. I am mostly in love wiith his intelligence, his courage,

...his passion and his compassion.


Yeah, he is also one handsome dude. But that other stuff is what makes him sexy. :7



:loveya:

[ceile]

36. Oh, my, yes!

Howard is so handsome. I'll add John Edwards too.

[Mad_Dem_X]

40. Oh, YES!

Howard is #1 with me, followed by John Edwards, then Wes Clark.

[gr8dane_daddy]

26. Debbie Wasserman Schultz

[SPKrazy]

58. Yes, I Like Her Too!

:loveya: Debbie!

[Guava Jelly]

27. Loretta Sanchez is pretty smokin

But I got a thing for the Queen

Queen Noor of Jordan.
she's like drool!!!

[SKKY]

28. I'm with you! They both could get it!

Twice if they acted right!

[NewWaveChick1981]

33. John Edwards and Russ Feingold...

:loveya: Yummm....

[Sanity Claws]

50. Mighty fine specimens

I agree with you 100%

[NewWaveChick1981]

51. Yummy indeed...

:9 :hi: Glad to know you concur... :D

[BlueIris]

35. Still just my beloved John Kerry.

What a nice man. Sigh.

[Tyler Durden]

37. Female ones as a rule.

I tend toward Hetero, so first things first.

[MrCoffee]

38. There's only one (well, three if you count Moxie and Spunk)

[Arugula Latte]

57. So we've got the horse, the twins, and that thing in the saddle. That's four.

:P

[MrCoffee]

68. that's a good lookin' horse.

[jobycom]

39. There are a couple of judges in Travis County

whom I can't name since I know them, a little...

[Left Is Write]

42. Bill Clinton.

[MissMillie]

44. Yep

his optimism is as sexy as it gets.

[QMPMom]

49. He is so darn sexy.

[Rhythm]

64. My g/f has said the same thing before...

Bill really does have that 'something', and I agree that's what gets him into trouble.

[Phillycat]

43. The Big Dog.

He has animal magnetism. The man oozes sexuality.

[1gobluedem]

46. Me too

I concur one hundred percent. I think he gets into trouble because of that magnetism; women are so strongly attracted to him and he can't resist them (my father compares it to waving a drink in front of an alcoholic). I have a friend who is a very serious journalist who had never once even hinted at being attracted to any kind of polititian or celebrity; when Bill Clinton was coming to town she turned and said to me "I just want to kiss him."

[u4ic]

47. I haven't seen one yet

I distrust the vast majority of politician's sincerity, even if he/she is on 'our' side. I find insincerity unattractive.

Plus, they're just a bit too 'polished' - they make me uncomfortable, kind of like the plastic on your grandparent's furniture...

[pink-o]

52. Russ Feingold is FEIN FEIN and GOLDEN...

Although his midwest accent throws me for a loop! Our people tawk like Mel Brooks, right?

Now, that's my acceptable crush. Please don't flame me for this, because I know he's dubious, but I'd jump Rahm Emmanuel in a heartbeat! He's just such a cute little man, almost like Jon Stewart (who's show he was just on. Eye candy for me!)

Does anyone else think he's hot, or should I just check myself into rehab???

[PassingFair]

56. Dibs on him already in dispute...

see 'up-thread'

Line forms to the right.

[pink-o]

60. oh, I know Russ is in demand!

Stephanie Miller is gonna cut to the front of the line for him and beat us all out!

What I meant was does anyone else think Rahm Emmanuel is hot, or am I just batshit crazy???

[hippywife]

53. This handsome fella here:

[PassingFair]

55. "IF" I was gay:

This is the female I would "cherchez".

The future President of France: Segolene Royal!

[Theduckno2]

65. I read through her bio at the BBC.

I have to admit this guy would be happy just to sit across from her at an outdoor cafe. I would be content to let her do all the talking, I'd just sit and smile.

She has to be one of the best recruitment posters for socialism, ever.

[Manifestor_of_Light]

59. Big Bill!

Big Bill! Big Bill! Big Bill! He'll always be my president, till the next Democrat!!

Every time I watched him make a speech in person in'92 during the campaign, I felt like a mule that had been hit between the eyes with a two by four. I could barely talk. Gobsmacked. It was embarrassing to have a vocabulary that consisted of "Duhhhhhhh....." Especially when you have been certified as a genius by the psychologists from an early age.

When I was walking away from the rally, all I could say is "God, he's a DOLL!!!".

The man has more charisma than the law allows.

Ok, for non-presidents: Wesley Clark (www.hotmilitarystud.com describes the wrong guy),
John Kerry. Al Gorgeous.

[itsmesgd]

61. John Edwards....actually his daughter Cate

All kidding aside, I am looking forward to Edwards announcing his 08 pres bid any day now. I will be in line to volunteer, and who knows I might even get to meet Cate, I mean John.

John Edwards website is a good place to check out. It appears to be setting the grounds for his 08 run. They have blogs, podcasts (sorry Kim -Jong Il), and other mechanisms in place to ride the populist movement online that was so successful with moveon and such this past election.

[Rhythm]

63. Objectively attractive...

Guys don't do it for me *L*, and i haven't seen that many gals in the political arena that i think are really all that...

so... from an 'objective' POV, i think these two are pretty handsome.

Harvey Gantt... former mayor of Charlotte NC
I met him once at a rally, and he was an absolute sweetheart, too. :-)


~*~*~

Alex Shook, my newly-elected delegate to the WV House.

[AzDar]

66. Rahm Emmanuel and John Edwards come to mind...although during

the 2004 election, there was a picture of John Kerry in a magazine (Rolling Stone, iirc) waist-deep in a pool that made me want to blow him every time I saw it.

[El Fuego]

67. Kerry, Clark, Gore, Edwards -- All the Dem Hunks!!

:loveya:
