Totally unscientific, of course, but I think this one got booted off the tri forum a couple of weeks ago

P.S. Don’t underestimate the power of good looks in an election year. Naomi Wolf, in the magazine “New York”, talks about the differences between Laura Bush and Teresa Heinz Kerry and how Laura seems to be stealing female support away from the Kerry ticket.
I agree with your general premise here but I think it is slightly more complicated than “who looks better”.
I think the Kerry girls look better and are certainly classier but if you ask who would I invite to my prom night kegger it would hands down be the Bush girls.
It’s not a transparent dress; she didn’t know what happens when a flash illuminates it. Do you really think she’d go out in a transparent dress? Cut me a break.
The designer surely knows which fabrics disappear with a camera flash. This dress is not even equipped with a “modesty panel”. I am quite certain this is the look Ms. Kerry was trying to achieve and is happy with the result.
Hmmmmmm…that’s food for thought. Maybe she was trying to make sure that she projected an aura of confidence and power. A kind of subliminal way of empowering her fellow young women. A way of saying that, “hey, I’m a feminist AND a sexy woman”? I still stand by my Helen of Troy comparison vis a vis SINKING a thousand ships, though
Terribly sorry, I’ve had a few drinks tonight. You’re sounding a little Cosmopolitan Magazine to me. Face…not good. Breasts…not bad. Is that what you’re trying to say?
