Bikini Clad J-Lo Teases the 2004 Dem Candidates [The 9 Dwarves Cant Even Merit an Esquire Cover]
Boston Globe ^ | July 3, 2003 | Mark Shanahan and Carol Beggy

Esquire Magazine's August edition features some revealing photographs of the 2004 Democratic Presidential contenders in what they consdier their natural elements, but the good editors at the magazine were smart enough to know that it would take more sizzle to attract readers.

That may explain why they slapped a picture of actress Jennifer Lopez --clad in a bikini--on the cover.

J-Lo's pinup shot leads readers into the features about the candidates, in which Sen. John Kerry is photographed in his Washington townhouse, talking on the phone while his wife Teresa, sits perched on his wingback chair with a cup of tea in her hand.

The photographer, Michael Edwards, said Kerry stayed on the phone for most of the photo shoot, saying he was chatting with an ambassador.

Edwards said Kerry originally wanted to pose with his wife on a replica of the Navy Patrol Boat he skippered in Vietnam.

The other photos show Rep. Dick Gephardt of Missouri in his kitchen making chicken, Se. John Edwards of North Carolina horsing around with his children in their bedroom, and the Reverend Al Sharpton in his favorite Harlem Soul Food restaurant.

Despite the free publicity, Kerry has his cohorts should be aware of another item teased on the cover: a story about potential candidate Gen. Weley Clark, the former NATO Supreme Commander.

Its titled 'The Man Who Can Defeat George W. Bush (If He Wants to)'

Oh man, that guy has GOT to get over himself. He plays both ends against the middle so frantically it's a wonder even knows who he is anymore - if he does.

Mine was through subscription, so I'm not sure. Features J'Lo in 5 or 6 "Varga" girl-type poses, complete with all the 1940's era cheesecake glamour. She pulls it off REALLY well.

She looks like a pinup from the 1950s when women used to have more meat in their bones

The pictures featured the "candidates" in supposedly candid shots at home. Most featured the candidates with their families, playing games and such. Dean's was at a campaign headquarters. But, Kerry's was the most pretentious of the bunch, with him sitting in a leather chair, holding a brandy, with the Heinz honey sitting on the arm of the chair. He looked like some elite snob, rather than a "man of the people".
