I'm a woman, but, I wish, with ALL of my heart,that woman's suffrage be repealed ! No one, NO ONE , should vote for a presidential candidate because they find him " sexy "/ " a hottie ".

Clinton makes my skin crawl; it's not just his " looks ", but also his policies ( lack thereof ), politics, and everything else about him. OTOH, I don't find President Bush to be " sexy "/ " a hottie " and when I see him walk ( no matter WHAT he's wearing ), I always find myself wondering why he has such a deformed gate ( sp.?). I voted for him and shall do so again, because of what he has done and what I know he will do, if re-elected.

CANDIDATES SHOULD ONLY BE HEARD AND NOT SEEN !

I agree with you. But in real life, even if you don't call it "sex appeal" people are influenced by overall impressions: good looking people get jobs more easily, do better in general, etc., it's not fair, but it's a fact of life.

I think in Bush's case, people,men and women, admire Bush's leadership, character, integrity, when he says something he does it, carries through, he has made some terrific decisions, and so on. I think it's more like "now here goes a real man, a real President and Commander in chief".

This couldn't be said about Clinton, because a preoccupation with sex and adultery is not what makes a man a "real man".

No but it sure is an added plus, brains plus good looks. I never miss a chance to see GWB on TV just because I like the way he comes across, a caring human being and a warm smile.

Or is it that because he is so smart he is perceived as being good looking?

Thank-you for saying in your post what a lot of us men are thinking.

These shallow remarks about "looks" are just as embarrassing when spoken by a Republican women as is was by Democrat women with Clinton in the 1990's.

I can't believe the WSJ is printing this trash.

Thanks again!

You've just wiped out 80% of women ever voting again. All women should have to pass a test. 10 pictures of men from say rock star to balding old fart and if they pick anyone that they would vote for Prez they would be disqualified from voting.

Come on, sister, give it a second read. It's pretty funny.

Liberals make such a fetish of intellect. But who cares how smart you are if you can't make a decision and follow through? Mr. Clinton could not seem to do that with foreign policy, or with Miss Lewinsky.

I voted for Pres. Bush because I agree with his policies and ideas for this country. The fact that he's a hottie never entered into it. It sure makes it easy to watch him on TV, though! ;o)

No one should vote for someone because of their sex appeal but I will never forget how embarrassed a friend of mine was because his mother (in her 70s at that time) was gushing about Clinton/Gore actually saying, "our guys are cuter than your guys" during the '92 election. Unfortunately, women like that vote too.

This thread is an embarrassment. When women spoke this way about Clinton every woman here blasted them for being empty headed and brainless (and rightfully so). Now it is apparently acceptable because it is a Republican whose looks are being touted? There are very, very few times I am ashamed to be a woman. This is one of them.
