"Mitt is a handsome man"

Charisma. You either have it or you don't. Tiny's got it, big time.

"Mitt is a handsome man," writes our imail correspondent, responding to the news that Tuck and Sissy are scheduled to come face-to-face with the charismatic Taxachusetts governor who would be Leader of the Free World at a Chelsea development event Thursday morning:

But, when I said, "regularity of facial features," I was thinking, specifically, of Bill Clinton's bulbous nose, and how ragingly unattractive it was. And how you did such a great job with your magenta pen, during the old snail-commentary days.

The crazy hour descends as Tiny goes for the jugular of the pompon of our winter hat.

A quick google brought up a relevant post with scanned magenta-penned clipping from last July:

We turned to our venerable snail files for sustenance -- see photo above of snail-fisked clipping. Fun food for thought when you can't read your favorite blogs. Take this one, from a Wall Street Journal Op Ed by Jeanne Safer dated May 31, 1996, that reminded us of why we never cared for ends-justify-the-means Hillary:

This week, Hillary Rodham Clinton informed Time magazine that she's hoping to have another baby, or to adopt one if she's unable to conceive at age 48. Dr. Joyce Brothers immediately pronounced that such a blessed event "will be good for the country."

We were rather amused with our own snail fisking of the above paragraph, where we presciently scribbled in the margin "Who would inseminate her?"

Hillary as First Lady longed for another child? Tiny isn't buying.

Meeting Bill Clinton in the flesh was not a pleasant experience as I recall.

Thankfully, I didn't have to meet Hillary.

Please give us a report of your meeting with Gov. Romney. I like him better than George Allen but less than Rudy.

I've never been one of those who thinks a man looks good just because he's in a powerful position. Clinton was a TOTAL turn off! I can't believe how many women I know think he looks terrific... ugh! Nothing personal on that level - he just doesn't appeal to me. Then again neither did Nixon or Johnson or Carter...

For that matter, while I don't think George Bush or Ronald Reagan have any problem in the looks department - they don't really wow me either and Kennedy always looked "slick" even if he was a fairly handsome man. *grin* But in Reagan's case I think it's because he has similar looks to my father (a tall handsome Irishman) and so I could never think of him any other way.
