What would have been said here if nude photos of Clinton had surfaced? Seriously. Think about that.

This is so far-fetched that "I don't know" is the only answer I can muster.

The sole reason Arnold was approached to be in those photos is because he was a world-famous bodybuilder and was paid a nice sum of money for (what I understand to be) rather artsy, non-sexual images.

I suppose it would be worse for Clinton to have done it inasmuch as Clinton clearly DIDN'T have that aesthetic appeal, for, then, his doing so wouldn't have any non-weirdo rationale that I can fathom. (That is, if you weren't traditionally Adonis-like, and weren't being paid, why on Earth would you consent to a nude shoot that was destined for a national magazine? ... unless you "got off" on the idea ...??)

If Clinton had taken nude photos, no matter the reason, the reaction here would have been nuclear. The double standard here is blatant.

I am gradually realizing that about 85% of the Schwarzenegger support is not much more than mindless star worship, and that there is absolutely nothing short of him being involved in some sort of murder-cannibalism scandal that will change the minds of most of his supporters.
