I think she’s incredibly hot. My respect for DK just went up a couple of rungs. ---

I agree, I think the woman is gorgeous. And from everything I’ve read about Kucinich he seems like a very decent guy. I don’t see what there is to be upset about here. ---

Not as hot as Gwen Ifil, but perfectly acceptable. ---

[QUOTE=Kimstu] I think the sharp divergence in responses here is an indication of the especially pronounced polarization in response to redheads. To some guys, goodlooking + redheaded = hottest thing in the galaxy, while to others it = okay but nowhere near as hot as a goodlooking blonde or brunette. [/QUOTE] For me, hair color is pretty much a wash; I’m not going to rate her higher just because she does or does not have a certain color of hair. She’s good looking, but, and definitely out of his league in terms of pure physical appearance, but that just makes her look like a gold digger; she’s 31 years his junior! …or maybe I’m just spoiled because the girl I got is hotter? 😃 [QUOTE=Duke of Rat] Ah come on, she’s a 6.5 or 7 at least 🙂 [/QUOTE] Very funny! 😛 ---

Holy crap. My wife and I had lunch at a Greek restaurant on Capitol Hill (Taverna, for those who might know) a couple years ago, and Kucinich was having lunch at the next table with this woman. We assumed it was his daughter. Denny, you dog! ---

Hmmm, there are certain similarities. Coloring, obviously. I expect Jackie’s mom looks like that as well. DK, we know your type now. Could this be his one weakness? [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-pit-you-dennis-kucinich/398022.md?page=1)
