It almost makes you long for the days of Nixon. What a looker he was! LOL

LOL! Yeah, a real beaut!

But Nixon lost in 1960, not long after a TV debate where he had refused make-up and started to sweat when verbally sparring with a cool, collected and handsome JFK.

Cornyn & Co. went out and recruited Carly and put all the energy and money behind her. Ditto with the CA GOP “leadership.” It is hardly an “open primary”, i.e. a choice of the voters, when the party stacks the deck in favor of one candidate over another.

As to Fiorina, she was on the wrong side of all of today’s issues. Extension of unemployment benefits, DREAM Act, START Treaty, repealing Don’t Ask Don’t Tell, and on and on. She may as well have run as a Democrat.

... a cool, collected and handsome JFK

On looks, I'd vote for Tom over JFK anyday.

  

Something about those Kennedy mouths. Eeeek.

Reminds me of Little Red Riding Hood and the wolf... "My, what big teeth you have..."

My Father was a JFK Clone, his teeth were supplied by The University Of Utah football team.

I agree. I never thought JFK was handsome for precisely the reason you mentioned, but everyone else seemed to. (Same with Clinton.)

I like Tom better than JFK in EVERY way, including looks. But I wasn't the one who brought up "the eye thing". It was, however something that I had noticed, too. People like you to look them in the eye and it makes them feel uncomfortable when you don't -- or can't.

I'm so sorry! ;-)

just kidding - I hope you meant in looks, only. :-)

A movement to draft McClintock for VP in 2012 is needed.

[Little Bill]

He was four years older and according friends, a Viking god. My mother, a Black Irish woman, she said, “He Is Mine!” And so, If you don’t Understand Black Irish, a race apart, ain’t religion, he was hers.

Thanks for the Ping!

Thats good. Tom’s thoughts wouldn’t be worth as much if he wrote a daily blog. I appreciate when he has something to say and he says it. He is right on to me quite often. I voted for him for Governor in 2003, even knowing Arnold would likely win due to his name recognition and Hollywood image. The CA electorate collectively is quite stupid and shallow. Maybe naive is a better word. For whatever reasons, they are politically clueless.
