I'm not seeing it. I've tried for days really, but I'm just not seeing it.

Am I the only one that does not think Sarah Palin is particularly attractive? I'm not naive. I do realize that looks generally can make quite a difference in politics. Though that does mean we have to leave a lot of room to explain the likes of Fred Thompson and Katherine Harris.

But seriously. I'm just not seeing the looks and charisma so many people are carrying on about. I'd describe her physical appearance as utterly mediochre. In some instances she looks flat out strange to me.

Call me crazy, but I honestly think Kay Bailey Hutchison, Lisa Murkowski, Michele Bachmann and Cathy McMorris Rodgers are all better looking Republican women.

1. pretty is as pretty does.......

[Clear Blue Sky]

2. It's all in the eye of the beholder...

[onethatcares]

3. personally, I can't stand her voice.

it sounds like screeching chalk. Nah, she is nothing special in the looks department either.

[Liberal Veteran]

4. She's attractive in that "frigid anal retentive Betty Bowers" way.

[wryter2000]

5. She has a wild, crazed look to her eyes

I do think she's pretty, but charismatic? Hell, no.

[Catherine Vincent]

6. I think she is attractive.

Until she opens her republican piehole.

7. A colleague said she looked like a librarian

In a cheap porn movie.

[On the Road]

8. OMG -- That is Perfect!

:rofl:

[notadmblnd]

9. She's not butt ugly, but I don't see beauty queen

[jimshoes]

10. I think she is attractive, but then again

I'm speaking as a male who is a bit older than she is. She does remind me of the women in Van Halen videos.

[Marnieworld]

20. Hot for teacher specifically

And now I feel old.

[lapfog_1]

11. High cheek bones and a square jaw...

yeah, that fits with most caucasian males definition of attractive.

This picture is kinda hot.



But then you hear that voice. And the Messianic look in her eyes, and then you here the hate and contempt in the words that come out of that mouth.

Attractive... not after you get to know her.

[Tummler]

12. She's starting to remind me of Peggy Hill (from "King of the Hill")

And I'm not alone:

13. She is physically attractive -- until you tap into her projections

and those are very ugly.

[DangerDave921]

14. you can't try to see beauty

You either do or don't. I think she is a pretty woman. And from talking with the men in my office today, that would be the consensus.

[CashGap]

15. I hate to say it, I *HATE* to say it...

When they say "Sarah Palin is so attractive!!!", they are really saying "Sarah Pallin is so attractive COMPARED TO _____ (Hillary)".

It's frustrating that the Repuke convention has a female VP who can wear skirts, while our convention basically showed us throwing ol' Hillary under the bus.

16. Enjoy your stay at DU.

[CashGap]

18. Ooops...

No problem, I'll reread the rules and get back on the straight and narrow line.

[countingbluecars]

17. I think she is fairly attractive,

nothing special. We are just used to seeing more mature women in the political spotlight. Women who have worked long and hard to earn recognition. Sarah Palin is cheap attractive IMO.

[Marnieworld]

19. She's got a rack

As opposed to Iraq which she knows nothing about.

[Libby2]

21. I think she's cute, but not a beauty.

[Stinky The Clown]

22. I can't get past her thoughts and attitudes. She is butt fucking ugly.

[boomerbust]

23. Pit Bull with lipstick
