by the hair on your nose.

well, for all of you b.c.-ers that are reading, you are well aware that there is a provincial election coming up. and guess what? my ballot hasnt shown up in the mail yet. so that's two elections in a row im not voting (previous federal and this one). and its kind of frustrating. but i was on the phone with tim and i mentioned how i think that gordon campbell will win this election on looks alone! now, im not saying that i want him to win!! and im not saying that i think gordon campbell has the "look goods". but, no offence to those two other parties who have a chance of winning some seats, green, and NDP.. i think that campbell is somehow the more pleasant to look at. well, i take that back. its not pleasant. and id rather not look at any of them. but, well, he's easily more likeable from a popular-culture standpoint. lets take a look shall we?
edited to add: after this was posted for two minutes i decided that some of those below were just too ugly to have permanent pictures on my blog. so, ive given links. now the overall appearance is fabulous. i couldnt to stand to look at all those ugly people at one time. (yes, i know im awful)

gordon campbell

adriane carr
carole james

in these pictures they all seem so happy to be running in this election. and to be sacrificing all their time just to get us all rowdied up for this election! so, my theory is that only beautiful people get elected. lets look at the previous american election. in no way am i saying that bush is "good looking", but come on, kerry?

georgie bush
john kerry

hmm. now only if howard dean didnt drop out of the bid to be president. now, he was "good looking" (in comparison)

howard dean

and look what the american public went and (stupidly) did? they elected the better looking man. now, the only case where i have seen this fail is the last federal election. particularly the new conservative party's choice of a leader. i mean, stephen harper, or belinda stronach?

stephen harper


belinda stronach

hmmm.? which one do you think would have beaten this guy?

paul martin..(almost worth being conservative isnt it?)

so, the thing is that i, in my honest, shallow opinion, would rather be governed by someone that is somewhat beautiful, rather than a troll. i want to have confidence in my leaders that not only are they smart, nice to their wives, run a country well, but damn, they can look fine doing it. so, if anyone knows any of these following people. please forward them my plea to run for any office in canada. i will move to your riding and join your party (as long as you remain pro-choice) just so that i can be governed by you.

leslie feist for premier!

jian ghomeshi for minister of canadian culture (and being hip)

george for the ministry of labour and the environment

tegan and sara for ministry of equality (and being hip)

see? how hard was that!? now get out there and vote!
