I know looks have a role in political success, stupid as that is. It is one of the reasons men like Hubert Humphrey never got to be president and why JFK won the Nixon-Kennedy debates. I didn’t just fall off the political turnip truck, but I want to raise a big red flag over that truck that says, “Get Real, America!”

She's got a point here. Although I enjoy looking at Sarah as much as the next guy, this country has got to get over its obsession with looks in a leader.

Indira Ghandi, Margaret Thatcher and Golda Meir were none of them good looking, but at least the last two were effective leaders of their country.

It should be noted the media spent a lot of time in the last election discussing how buff Obama was.

Agreed. Libs cannot see past Sarah’s beauty. If she had aborted Trig they would see genuine ugliness in her and would praise her as the next Joan of Arc.
