Is a new stereotype being born?

About a month ago, as we were watching one of Swalwell's frequent appearances on MS.NOW, I said, completely joking, "Nah, ever since John Edwards, I've been suspicious of handsome politicians. It never crossed my mind that, indeed, it had happened again.

So I'm wondering if handsome politicians are going to begin suffering the fate of good looking blond women.

While in high school I noticed that many beautiful girls were also unpleasant stuck-ups or just b@#$hes, I never built those few observations into stereotypes.

Among pols, I don't know. The Three Kennedys were horndogs. Edwards ... Swillwell ... but if DU-member LAS14 is so smart, why didn't (s)he advise DU-folk to take Swillwell with a block of salt?

I din’t think that’s really a new stereotype.

My guess is, the Libs are better at condemning or defending the individuals in question by creating  groups with loosely similar traits. The more people in these mailable and convenient groups, the more vagueness the can apply, and less specific are their arguments. This is important when they don't really grasp the situation in question
Add some inner-circle encouragement (and mix in a little THC) and it becomes their definition of a medical fact that's questioned only by knuckle draggers lacking the sophisticated comprehension only found on the left. No need to entertain our concerns.
I think that thought process is somewhat useful when running from public debate while retaining aloofness

Swallwell is handsome? For Washington D.C. standards, perhaps, but that's an awfully low bar.
