Poll: Sarah Palin Is Most Attractive Politician, Bill Clinton Second
CBS DC ^ | September 25, 2012 1:13 PM

If winning the popular vote in the latest beauty poll has any implications on the 2012 Presidential Election, Barack Obama is looking good.

In what is being dubbed as the largest political beauty poll in history, Sarah Palin edged out former President Bill Clinton as the most attractive politician in the game.

Thousands of Americans voted in the poll on BeautifulPeople.com, a site usually devoted to being the most exclusive online dating community on the web.

Of the 10 candidates listed in the poll, the majority of the 57,000 voters designated Palin as “favorable.” That’s good news for the front runner of the Tea Party.

Voters also found Bill Clinton to be 23 percent more attractive than his wife, and current Secretary of the State, Hillary Clinton.

President Obama finished fourth while Mitt Romney placed seventh in the rankings. Pollsters found Obama has a 15 percent more favorable look than his Republican challenger.

Vice Presidential candidate Paul Ryan came in sixth on the poll, one spot ahead of the leading man on the GOP ticket.

Top 10 Most Attractive Politicians:

Politician % favorable vote Sarah Palin (R) 64% Bill Clinton (D) 63% Gavin Newsom (D) 61% Barack Obama (D) 57% John Boehner (R) 54% Paul Ryan (R) 47% Mitt Romney (R) 42% Joe Biden (D) 42% Hillary Clinton (D) 40% Joe Kennedy (D) 39%

But it wouldn’t be a complete superficial survey without a separate poll to determine the nation’s ugliest politicians.

Top 10 Ugliest Politicians:

Politician % favorable vote Barney Frank (D) 8% John McCain (R) 8% Chris Christie (R) 9% Newt Gingrich (R) 14% Ron Paul (R) 16% Nancy Pelosi (D) 24% John Edwards (D) 28% George Bush (R) 30% Al Gore (D) 32% Michele Bachmann (R) 32%

A person's pants should make a statement.
These say "I like The Time Tunnel."

Clinton did win the poll in the category of ‘politician/ rapist’.

.Lawrence Anthony, a legend in South Africa and author of 3 books including
the bestseller The Elephant Whisperer, bravely rescued wildlife and
rehabilitated elephants all over the globe from human atrocities, including
the courageous rescue of Baghdad Zoo animals during US invasion in 2003.

On March 7, 2012 Lawrence Anthony died.

He is remembered and missed by his wife, 2 sons, 2 grandsons and numerous
elephants.

Two days after his passing, the wild elephants showed up at his home led by two large matriarchs.

Separate wild herds arrived in droves to say goodbye to their beloved man-friend.

A total of 31 elephants had patiently walked over 12 miles to get to his South African House.

Witnessing this spectacle, humans were obviously in awe not only because of the supreme intelligence and precise timing that these elephants sensed about Lawrence ‘s passing, but also because of the profound memory and emotion the beloved animals evoked in such an organized way:
Walking slowly - for days - Making their way in a solemn one-by-one queue from their habitat to his house.

Lawrence ‘s wife, Francoise, was especially touched, knowing that the
elephants had not been to his house prior to that day for well over 3 years!

But yet they knew where they were going.

The elephants obviously wanted to pay their deep respects, honoring their friend who’d saved their lives - so much respect that they stayed for 2 days 2 nights without eating anything. Then one morning, they left, making their long journey back.

From a purely objective viewpoint, Bill Clinton (fat blubbery guy), Hillary Clinton (of cankles fame), and Joe “Plugs” Biden do not belong on a list of attractive people. Send them to list two for the ugly. On the other hand, a good number on the ugly list belong on list one or close to good looking status. Michelle Bachmann is a good looking woman. To show my objective bona fides, Nancy Pelosi was not bad in her day. Remember she’s in her seventies today. As for the guys, if they mean W for George Bush, then move another to list one. Good looking guy in tip top shape. He may be a scumbag, but John Edwards is not an ugly dude. Inside he is, but outside he is not. My Hall of Fame of the ugly would be Janet Reno (recieved 100% of all ballots), Robert Reich, Janet Napolitano, Barbara Mikulski, Henry Waxman, Pete Stark,

Actually I'd like to think Sarah is a very distant first. Not sure about Billy Jeff as anything on this list.

“Guns or legs? Why not both?”

My wife is a firearms instructor. Once in a shotgun class, she showed a guy how to rack a shotgun one handed. He promptly proposed to her.

People forget how physically repulsive, and softly pudgy, and pasty, Clinton was, before the experts went to work on him with tailored suits and $200.00 haircuts
