at a few of the rallies, and this picture does not do him justice. He is drop dead gorgeous.

11. Newsom is married - she seems to be conservative (a prosecutor)...
She usually takes the conservative position on a legal panel.

Newsom, wife decide to end 3-year marriage
Careers on opposite coasts take toll on mayor, TV star

(San Francisco Chronicle)

After months of growing rumors, it's official -- San Francisco's Camelot couple are splitting up.

Mayor Gavin Newsom and his Court TV analyst wife, Kimberly Guilfoyle Newsom, announced "with great sadness" the end of their 3-year-old bicoastal marriage in a brief statement issued late Wednesday by the mayor's City Hall press office.

"Unfortunately, the demands of our respective careers have made it too difficult for us to continue as a married couple," the pair said in the statement. "Over the past 10 years, we have developed a tremendous bond of love and respect for each other. That will never change.

"We will remain close friends," they said. "We ask for your understanding and consideration during this difficult time."

Edited on Tue May-24-05 11:17 PM by Lori Price CLG
...tried to 'spin' the looks issue by having Cheney declare, 'I may not be as handsome as my opponent (Edwards).' That was the only truthful statement Cheney has ever uttered!

As a fellow Canadian, I'm glad as well... but the move was purely political. I doubt much ideology shift was involved in it.

27. Well, Stephanie Herseth comes to mind...


I think she's quite attractive, though a bit too moderate for me. But maybe dating me could cause her to drift to the left, you never know. She's probably already married, though...

Always thought he was distinguished looking. Saw him in person and he's ever better looking. I also notice how attentive he is to his family. He clearly loves and respects the women in his life. Plus, intelligence is a real turn on for me!

In other words, even though the politics are awful, do (liberal or Leftist) men still 'like' these women? Just curious.
