I think the fact that the people post unflattering photos of Hillary Clinton taken at awkward moments to make the case that she is unattractive serves to demonstrate that she is attractive and that the only way to make her look unattractive is to post unflattering photos of her taken at awkward moments. Then again, maybe it's just me. My fellow DUers called me crazy for suggesting that Condoleeza Rice is an attractive woman.
I think she's average. I think her problem is she wants to be so all business, she's killed much of her femininity like many other feminists tend to do. It's not a bad strategy though considering that most women will not vote for an overly attractive female because it would strike at the heart of their very competative nature in those regards.
And I'm trying to take what you said and apply it to her much younger picture. She had a plain pallet, not unattractive, but certainly she has not done things to flatter it over the years...
Really TNO, with the gnashing of teeth that goes on at places like DU, the need to insert political ideology into even the most mundane of things and with no humor in it, it is not hard to see how the cult of liberalism hardens people. Maybe Hilary would not be unattractive, but she wears the burden that comes with liberalism on her face. And its not just that she's liberal, it is because her whole life revolves around the political. It makes her...one dimensional...a cartoon character--it is how many of the DU posters come across too when Bush is inserted in every evil of the world as the cause.
