2. Getting to spend $500,000 at Tiffany's?
Some women go for that kind of thing.

15. Yip LA is filled with girls like that
Liberal and conservative so people get turned on by famous men. It is not exactly news that famous men tend to attract a lot of potential mates.

5. Best marriage Tiffany can buy. ; ) His extravagant spending is WHY Newt's pretending to run for
presidency at this time. His snowed big donors will get a mouthpiece for their ideology on all the news shows, while Newt funnels some of their donations to pay his bills.

8. Hormones
and power. Sad to say just as there are males who think with their dicks there are women who are driven by their ovaries and/or secondary status in male dominated circles.

Women socialized in patriarchal cultures get their sense of importance second hand through linking themselves with alpha males.

11. No idea
He looks to me like he has saggy old 'ones'. ;-) But then again - for the 'superficial' things that attract women to men? I'm more of the 'looks like a caveman' kind of woman so he does nothing for me. Too uptight. Looks like he can't swing a hammer let alone change a lightbulb. I'll take the TRUE alpha male I'm engaged to that looks like an Italian Import Version of Grizzly Adams :rofl: over the fakey fake phoney baloney 'money' guy any day.

14. All power and money peeps have their groupies...
... and golddiggers. Some are in it for the power, some the money, some both.

Sad.
