Do we look like our candidates?
While filling the car with gas yerterday, I noticed a guy wearing a cowboy hat, dead something cowboy boots, a big-ass belt buckle, a western shirt, and a big gold cross necklace. And so I asked myself, what are the chances he's voting for Kucinich? I actually hope he is because I have this tendancy, not to judge book by cover, but take guesses. Is this a bad habit? Am I alone?

1. I guarantee you I look nothing like Howard Dean.
I wouldn't be caught dead in khakis and a button down shirt. (OK, I am a female, but some of us wear that uniform too).

seeing how I'm female, close to 40 and without a gray hair. And not because I color it. ;)

6. Not at all...
I look the exact opposite of the clean cut candidate. Really long hair, ripped jeans, metal concert shirt and biker leather.

9. Jim Hightower dresses like that, and he might vote Kucinich
John Melloncamp is doing concerts for Dean.

10. I know what you mean
Whenever I spot a bleached-blonde with Tammy Faye Baker makeup caked on her face, driving an SUV with a smug holier-than-thou look, I know I'm looking at a freeper!

15. How's this one
Matching dress, shoes, eye shade, with rhinestone glasses, big hair, and a handbag with the flag embroidered.

16. OMG!
The flag-embroidered handbag! Yes! I've seen a few of them that just make it a theme; sweater, jewlery, hair pieces.

And why is Tammy off-limits?

11. I've got Sharpton hair...
Kucinich ears, a Lieberman schnoz & a Dean bod.

No wonder I'm undecided.

13. Sorta, Edwards.
Of the nine, I look more like Edwards than the others. My hair is the same, accent very close but not quite as thick, same height, build. But not as good looking, alas!!!

But, how many 50-somethings are???

18. A little...
...except for the overbite. And the shortness thing. I weigh more a bit around the gut than in the glory days, then, too. And the hairline matches the waistline. Not to say that I'm not well-groomed, but third-degree halitosis drives some people's personnel decisions...
