No candidate has ever won based on his wife's attractiveness. A good wife can help but in the end voters vote for the candidate, not the wife.

That doesn’t change what I said. I didn’t say that family wins elections. I said on the issue of personal family, Romney wins.

Logic would tell us if Bill Clinton got elected then your wife’s looks really shouldn’t come in to play.

Just ask Hillary Clinton. People will vote for her because of her candidacy for the ‘08 Presidency and not because of her wife, Bill Clinton. (sarcasm off) I think I just threw your theory right out the window!

“No candidate has ever won based on his wife’s attractiveness.”

Just ask FDR.

Let us fervently pray this holds true.
