It's not always true that familiarity breeds contempt. An unknown political candidate who bears a passing resemblance to Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) will be liked more than one who doesn't -- even when the candidate is a man.

The more a candidate looks like McCain, the less people like him or her, according to the first online experiment conducted by The Washington Post, washingtonpost.com and Shanto Iyengar, director of the political communication lab at Stanford University.

It is amazing what can be done with air brushing. Must take a long time though. Must be the reason Helen Thomas never looks any better.

I hope the rat keeps acting and talking like the beast has already won a big victory in November. Let the rat convince himself the John Spencer doesn't exist.
