No argument there. Merely suggesting that Blanco is surely far from alone among politicians in relying on image consultants.

How the heck would a trailer park increase crime??
The same way they attract tornadoes ;-)

Well, if anyone ever needed image consultants, it has to be Blanco! She also needs brains & smarts consultants too!

Who knows? Don't know whether you have to suit up as SOP when going up in an S-3B Viking jet, but
everybody who came off the jet, including the President, was wearing one.
Regardless, from a female perspective....that man certainly fills out a uniform nicely!

My all time favorite Kerry photograph where he's being a "regular man of the people" is the one on the ski slopes. You know the one... he's got the daisy zipper pull?
On second thought, my real favorite is the one where he's catching the football like the biggest dork in junior high school.
To: TontoKowalski
I've lost count of my favourite Kerry pics, there were so many, and many brought mirthful tears...I'm an Aussie, if they made me ROFLMBO I can only imagine what they did for you...
I have suggested a number of times that a Freeper starts a thread MY ALL TIME FAVOURITE KERRY PICS and we could all contribute. Great way to start the new year, don't you think?

How the heck would a trailer park increase crime?? Everyone who lives in a trailer park is trash, don't ya know? Ask James Carville. In addition, they attract tornadoes. :-)

No, prolly just tightening the guy wires that hold up her collagen-injected lips.

At first glance when I saw the picture of Kerry holding up the black quack, I thought he had shot Al Sharp-Not, I mean Sharpton.

Didn't Blanco earn her Spurs in boys town?
Oh, no Ciudads in NO...
Shucks, House of the Rising Sun! But, of course!

What is amusing here...is that Rudy G never for a moment thought about what to wear, what to say, or what to do after 9-11. Rudy did what came natural. Blanco isn't in Rudy's class....in fact...she could not even manage to make a on-the-spot speech if she had to.
To: pepsionice
Rudy G never for a moment thought about what to wear, what to say, or what to do after 9-11.I thought Rudy did a good job after 9/11, but how do we know he never thought about what to wear, say or do? I recall press conferences [can't remember if it was 9/11-related or at other times] at which Rudy would turn up in a police windbreaker. I don't think something like that is entirely spontaneous.
To: pepsionice
Here's Rudy with Gov. Pataki. Looks like it's immediately post-9/11. You'll note he's wearing a Fire Dept. cap and jacket.
To: governsleastgovernsbest
Well, at least he shows up for his photo ops.

I do know that Rudy was almost literally in the middle of it right before and during the collapse of the WTC.
