Democrats search for sexy, smart, liberals
AFP ^ | Fri Jul 30, 2004

BOSTON, United States (AFP) - So you think you're sexy, smart and liberal? Fed up with talking politics with a tired partner? Try "Johnny's Girls," a Democratic dating link that is not for conservatives, no matter how caring they are.

Christina 'CJ' Frogozo, fitted out in a white shirt with silver stars and plunging neckline, is one of Johnny's Girls and founder of the www.demdates.com website in April 2004, after what she calls "some creative campaigning" in Los Angeles.

The site has been getting around 10,000 "hits" a week and has 350 people registered looking for love with a fellow Democrat.

Frogozo had been, according to her website, part of Democratic vice presidential candidate John Edwards (news - web sites)' "best looking supporters, hitting the bars on behalf of their favorite candidate to inspire the young men of the city to take an interest in the political world.

"Frustrated by the abundance of Republican men before her, Frogozo knew she had to find a forum where a gal could find a 'good man', namely, a Democrat."

Her website now serves as a dating service, "allowing 'good men' to meet smart, sexy, and liberal gals, and as a forum for forming new friendships, networking and campaigning among 'young America'."

In addition to creating what she calls "an online community," demDates.com "hosts parties in a growing number of cities nationwide. Look for us at your favorite hangout - we're the cute ones in the 'Smart, Sexy, Liberal' tees!"

The website has no "direct links" with the Democratic Party, although Frogozo said it has "close ties with the Democratic National Convention."

Although she said Edwards is the more charismatic member of the Democratic ticket, Fregozo insisted she likes presidential candidate John Kerry (news - web sites) just as well.

"I love both Johns," she gushed. "I think they are terrific candidates. I think that it's a really good chance we have to win, with Kerry's experience in the political arena and in combat and then we have Edwards' charisma. It's a terrific combination."

But, she added, "I think Edwards is a very attractive man. If he were single, I would date him."

Fregozo did not start out as a dyed-in-the-wool Democrat.

"I've dated many Republicans," she confessed. "Part of the reason I started demdates.com is that I was dating a Republican.

"We broke up. He was very adamant about his views. However, I did convince him to donate money to the Edwards campaign in the primaries and to vote for him. He actually showed up and they told him, "Your're a registered Republican. You can't vote for Edwards in the primary."

Although Fregozo believes Democrats "have sexier politicians than the Republicans," she said her website is not only geared to linking up Democrats with Democrats.

"It's also to create wider appeal for people who are swing voters," she said.

"My bottom line is to appeal to young people. If we get Kerry into office and all the other Democratic senators and people into office, we'll show a really unified party and get more people in the party."

Not for conservatives? Whatever happened to the Left's famous inclusiveness and tolerance?

No pink ties, no hairspray, no pc sports fashion, no long fingernails, no botox, no Mass. snob accent, no trial lawyer background, and so on. (What have I forgotten?)

What? Liberal men are hard to find? If only this problem existed in every state! ;)

Oh, I'd say even here in the San Francisco Bay Area 50-60% of the (straight) men are conservative. The problem is that 95% of the women here are liberal, and that's what skews the election results so much.

A man with a JOB can be a scary thing.

Dems need their own dating service. They have to be around their own, so they be down on the world together!!

I see the Democrats are now taking a page from the playbook of the "Children of God" cult.

I believe the term used by the cult leader was "flirty fishing."

Charter members of DemDates.com:


If beauty is truly more than skin deep, finding a "sexy, smart, liberal" woman will be akin to locating the Holy Grail.

I agree that Cher is a pig, but how do we know that she is a big liberal?

Hey, how about a warning label for this thread?
Making me look at Streisand, Ronstadt, Reno, Rosie O'Donnell etc. early in the morning on a Monday is NOT a good thing for my health! :)

10,000 hits and only 350 people are registered. Looks like the vast majority don't want to give out their personal and financial information. Since this is a Rat site, they'd probably have to fill out additional information and go through a strict background check. Then there's the monthly fee, the fee you'd pay if you meet a woman, marriage fee if you marry, etc.

I'm starting to get a sense that the DemoRats are beginning to question their own Kerry nomination. Did they forget about him being the most liberal Senator in the Senate? How about his 19 year voting record in the Senate? No signature achievements after 19 years? His post combat Vietnam rhetoric and lies that cost American Soldier's lives. Using actors like Ben Affleck, who has played in such bombs as Gigli, for his spokesman? Endorsing Comedians such as Whoopi that have total disrespect for the highest office in the land? It's no wonder the DemoRats are starting to jump ship!
