HAPPY FRIDAY!
Cleavage Friday, to be exact.
Some of you may remember the “cleavage Friday” columns I used to run that began when Hillary was hit with a cleavage column for a C-SPAN neckline that ruffled the Beltway elite. She even fundraised on it.
Republicans aren’t used to this, at least not on the male side of the equation. Hollywood’s TMZ bestowed the (ahem) honor. The photo at top is a TMZ special after beating the trail for a shirtless photo of the new veep.
But the buzz on Ryan is strong and it’s reportedly rubbing off on Mitt. They’re now going to pool their ticket power and start showing up as a twosome across the country.
“They really like each other and they feed off of each other,” campaign manager Matt Rhoades said. “There’s an energy, there’s a chemistry.” [Politico]
Everyone can remember Barack Obama trading off his celebrity status in 2008, so I’m sharing a flashback photo below, with Republicans attempting to do the same with Ryan. Considering Romney-Ryan are very guarded with the press, we’ll see how they handle this one.
But how does Paul Ryan do it? Besides staying away from sugar, that is? Joe Biden reportedly works out with weights, Mitt Romney runs three miles every morning. Ryan’s choice is a fitness routine you can do in your home without machines called P90X, which seems to be working.
And remember, that “topless” photos is before Ryan started working P90X.
So, consider this your 2012 cleavage Friday entry, compliments of “the hottest veep evah.”
I guess it’s a matter of personal taste. I don’t find Obama especially good looking and Paul Ryan looks like Eddie Munster to me.
Was he Eddie Munster? THee is a democrat party website saying that he is. The evidence in rather convincing. http://tinyurl.com/8jwzvuv
I guess if an adult version of Eddie Munster is considered “hot”, then yes he might just be the hottest. I do not know why he is throwing his career away by teaming up with Mitt Romney. His days of being considered a conservative champion are soon going to be over, once he takes office.
You really think Ryan and Mittens will be in the white house? Even with all of Obamas faults I can’t believe this country could be that stupid as to let these two clowns within a hundred miles of the white house.
Nice picture of Ryan, nice shoulders, nice chest hair! Thanks for the eye candy, Taylor.
However, I used to think Al Gore was the hottest VP. But, he is older now, and a little on the heavy side.
It would appear to be all above the waist, the legs look a little spindly; they match his wife’s. I don’t get the good looking thing either, he looks like he’s still pouting over his dead daddy. I guess Krugman was right when he said in his blog that Romney picked Ryan to satisfy the media, in the hope that they would kneel at his feet and worship him. Ryan is the classic media invented character; he’s supposed to be honest, but he’s not; he’s supposed to be straightforward, but he’s not; he’s supposed to be a great thinker, but he’s not; he’s supposed to be good looking, but he’s not. As they created Obama out of whole cloth they have now created Ryan. If only the Democrats were smart enough to make the electorate see the real man. Wishful thinking.
Hey angels81, check out the NY Times today. They deep dive into a Romney transition plan being drawn parallel to the election.
I’m going to say the same thing I said when there was all the swooning over then Candidate Obama and his shirtless picture:
Get the f#$@ outta here!
Now I get to play the spoil-sport and beat up on Republicans/Conservatives for fawning out Ryan BAH-DEE! Glad I don’t have to see this stuff from my gals Jill Stein and Cheri Honkala. Honkala looks like the best manager I’ve ever worked for when I was with HP. And Stein looks like my 12th grade Algebra II teacher who told me:
Damn I love that teacher.
Boy, you guys have a propensity for going wide of the mark………ADD much?
It’s obviously having the sixpack past 40……another “1% group” if you will. Critiquing Pamela Anderson’s facial features would be the same misfire.
No one is expecting die-hard liberals to admit to being impressed, but I can understand the possibility of some more apolitical women being influenced subliminally.
Well I have a one-pack and can take Obama and Ryan easily. Not bragging, just a fact. My linebacker/defensive end mojo is still strong. Plus I’ve added some Hapkido.
No doubt, CO. American society is all about the visuals. My hard liberal sister even said Paul Ryan looked good for his age but she still hates his politics so much she wants to burn them at the stake (NOT Ryan but his views….
).
Frankly the women who would be impressed by a potato-chip chested whinny lil creep like Ayn Ryan, well, you can tell by who was impressed.
I suppose if we were voting for Mr. Universe, this might be relevant? I was not into the goo,goo, ga, ga over Obama’s bod in 2008 and I am not into it now nor am I into Ryan that way either. FWIW, Ryan is not my type. Photos of him on the campaign stump remind me more of Ichabod Crane cartoon character version from Disney’s Legend of Sleepy Hallow…than Eddie Munster but that is funny too. Mitt makes a good Herman Munster to Ryan’s Eddie.
And this is news why and why should I care? I lump all of this kind of stuff into the same category as when Rush LimbUGH asked if we could watch Hillary age. It is pretty stupid stuff, IMHO and doesn’t warrant the blog space.
I guess if photos of an Olympian gymnast’s butt last week warrant space here, this does.
In my opinion, neither does. But it’s not my blog.
