Liberals pick Republican as 'hottest freshman' in Congress

[wyldwolf]

Stop reading now if you are interested in substance. For the rest of you, on a day when there's little campaign or election news, we point you to The Huffington Post's contest for hottest House freshman.

Readers of the liberal website have, gasp, chosen a Republican -- Aaron Schock, 27, of Peoria, Ill.

It's actually not such a schock (sorry) when you see his picture. Click here for the HuffPo slideshow.

I say he didn't meet the right girl in college.

[Christian30]

1. He is totally yummy.

Me-ow. ;)

Perhaps some of us DUers can seduce him to the right side.

[butterfly77]

29. He will be trying to seduce you...

because now the RepubliCONS will be sending him out on the campaign trail..

[Kalyke]

2. He's handsome?

He looks like Doogie Houser.

I like my men grown, thank you. :)


P.S. For the record, I thought Wes Clark was much hotter than John Edwards - and I'm in my 30s. ;)

[Kahuna]

5. Doogie Howser was the first thing I thought. So, he's hot if you like

men who look like they're twelve years old.

[bunnies]

6. Yep. What you said. Ick. nt

[blue_onyx]

16. I thought of Neil Patrick Harris too

Yes, both of them are handsome

[DevonRex]

21. Oh yes, me too. Wes' face is just perfect IMO.

3. He's a good match for Palin.

The Limbaugh-Palin Party is all about surfaces and symbols, not substance, and Aaron and Sarah have geat surfaces. Screw depth; looks count.

4. Doogie Howser of the House.

seriously.

[Zynx]

7. He kind of looks like Neil Patrick Harris.

[olkaz]

13. Funny you mention that....

edit:actually posting this was probably a bad idea

[Zynx]

14. What did you post before the edit?

[olkaz]

22. He has more in common with NPH than the looks, and thats all I'm saying.

At least according to a few folks I know who are close to the situation.

(I live nearby)

Edit: If you really, really need it spelled out for you, PM me or something.

[DevonRex]

19. I was thinking the same thing, but not nearly as cute. I give Schock a meh.

[treestar]

8. A beauty contest in the House of Representatives

Who knew?

Being a Republican sort of takes away the hotness!

[DU9598]

9. Who's the guy holding the bible for him at the mock swearing in?

I wonder ... he is kind of pretty.

[buff2]

10. The fact that he is a republican makes him ugly as sin

:puke:

[LynnTheDem]

11. Doogie is in the House.

[SuperTrouper]

12. Just remember, this guy has the Mark Foley look. He is not even that handsome

I think CT's Dem Rep. Chris Murphy is better (although he is not a freshman)

[Jennicut]

15. I like Chris, he is my congressman for my district.

He really communicates well with us here, and he is cute too! :)

[DevonRex]

20. Need pics!!!!

[Jennicut]

23. Hey Jenn!

with Prez Obama during the election:

[DevonRex]

27. Oh, he IS cute. And he's a dem!!!

:hi: Jenn!!!

[skeewee08]

17. They Didn't poll me:-) I would not have voted for him if they did.

where there not any African American or Latino American?

[WI_DEM]

18. I guess compared to most congress critters he's okay, but not all that big of a deal

like the others I was thinking "Doogie Houser, MD"

[demo dutch]

24. Cute but then again he's a republican,...yuk!

[camera obscura]

25. Looking at the choices... Nye and Perriello are cuter

[ecstatic]

26. As someone on Huffpo said, he looks like a young Ted Haggard

[Eryemil]

28. I'd rather fuck Barney Frank (And that's not a slight to the good Congresman)

[MorningGlow]

30. That's the best they've got?

Ew. Too whitebread, IMO.

[Cha]

31. Oh barf..if he's a repuke then

his mind is fucked up.

[Runcible Spoon]

32. meh. totally pedestrian and generic "good looks". Belongs in a JC Penny catalog type handsomeness.

[Enrique]

33. Mark Foley would have liked him

too bad for Foley he's gone. Good for Schock I guess.

[cherish44]

34. The Dems can lay claim one of the hottest men to ever grace this earth...

JFK Jr. of course I think he would have eventually run for office too. RIP :-(
