Another vote for Condi Rice. I would boink her in a second. Especially if she is yelling about the Bush Doctrine while close to climax.

Another vote for the Progressive lady. I’m so astonished so many people share my love for her! I seem to have a thing for googly eyed ladies who most people think are ugly. Oh what I’d give to have a menage a trois with [Maggie Gyllenhaal](http://maggie-gyllenhaal.net/) and [Illeana Douglas](http://www.angelfire.com/movies/illeanamain)!

I second Peter Dinklage. I find him even more irresistible since someone on this board suggested him as the lead for the Miles Vorkosigan books.

I don’t have a thing for Linda Cohen, but another ESPN lady(not Erin Andrews, everybody lusts for her), but Suzy Kolber. It’s her voice.

Sasha Cohen. I’ve had a thing for her since the 2002 Olympics (I was younger then, so it’s okay). My wife rolls her eyes whenever I mention it. The other day she caught me watching some god-awful skating special on the Style network. I felt like George Costanza being caught watching “My Cousin Vinny.”

And while I came into the thread to mention Sasha, I am flabbergasted so many people share my secret love for Progressive’s Flo. She reminds me of Meghan from Felicity (Amanda Foreman). I say it louder, indeed.

Puddy is one of the sexiest men to ever walk the earth. Anyone who gives you a WTF over him is not worth knowing. Hell, I’ve been known to watch that stupid TV show _Rules of Engagement_ just because he’s on it. And, dear OG, is that voice enough to make me moist.

Totally totally totally!!! Every time she’s on David Letterman I watch her. I am thrilled by her charming kookiness, and am amazed that she really is single. What’s up with that?

I also like Bonnie Hunt, but that’s not quite so WTF.

And Patrick Warburton is a WTF [exactly](http://www.screencaptures.net/w/warburton04.jpg) _[why](http://www.screencaptures.net/w/warburton05.jpg)_? If only 1992’s “Battle in the Erogenous Zone” would be made available. Warburton’s credit was “pool boy.”

I would throw myself at [Lis Wiehl](http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,365242,00.html)’s feet if the opportunity ever presented itself. (I once played saxophone about six feet from her at a cocktail party in New York, but it didn’t seem like the right time somehow.)

Funny thing is, she’s a Fox News lawyer, and I hate Fox News and don’t have much use for lawyers. But I see her and I just wanna be her man. I think she’d dig me; I was born in Greenwich, CT ad I have ADD, and so does the [guy](http://www.lawcrossing.com/article/index.php?id=2953) she married.

This is not my crush (and how!) but a couple of years ago, my co-worker said he had a crush on… Judy Dean.

Yes, Mrs. Howard Dean.

This Judy Dean:

[http://images.salon.com/mwt/feature/2004/01/23/judy/story.jpg](http://images.salon.com/mwt/feature/2004/01/23/judy/story.jpg)

That’s not a specially-selected-to-look-goofy photo. That’s the first hit on Google Images.

:eek:

He’s married to someone who is, IMHO, better looking than Judy Dean.  
There is NO accounting for taste.

I remember Judy Dean from Howard’s campaign, and I remember thinking she was a sweet, caring, committed, and utterly unpretentious individual. And that goes a looong way.

I have such a crush on [Scott Bakula](http://upload.moldova.org/movie/actors/s/scott_bakula/thumbnails/tn2_scott_bakula_3.jpg), but my friends think he’s unspeakably old.

He’s only 54!
