You are right, which is why I apologized in advance for even posting that.
Same with the comment I made about Huckabee being a frumpy Wally Cox looking candidate with a lazy eye.
I am normally the most sensitive person in not wanting to insult people for the way they look.
But with candidates for US President, it has a lot to do with perception. If a man projects strength and confidence, they stand a much better chance of winning.
Most of our Presidents in the TV age have been tall and handsome, because Americans like a tall leader.
Clinton, GHWB, Reagan, (forget Carter), Nixon sort of, Lyndon Johnson (tall), JFK for certain, Ike Eisenhower, Truman (well he's the exception.
A short frumpy candidate will not get as many votes from women.
Do you think as many women would be Ga-Ga over Barack Obama if he were short and frumpy?
Guess if you had lived in the *30s, you wouldn*t have liked FDR. He was in a wheelchair. Guess we don*t have elections, we have beauty contests. Maybe Ann Coulter should announce shes running; she*s skinny, but has beautiful eyes and all that long blonde hair, very pretty gal. I bet you*d be star struck!
