Capitol Hill Eye Candy

Regardless of whether you're straight or gay, male or female, you will probably enjoy the faces and figures assembled by the staff of The Hill newspaper in their feature about the 50 most beautiful people on Capitol Hill. I'm not sure who the judges were, but they tended to have very good taste.

One has to wonder -- was including the House Majority Leader a form of sucking up? (And how did they manage to get a picture of him without a cigarette -- or two -- in hand?) How did Alabama Congressman Artur Davis get so many staff members on the list? My own question is, Why was Arizona Congressman Jeff Flake left off? Is youthful libertarianism too threatening?

One thing's for sure: There are more than a few congressional staffers who have a career in modeling waiting for them if their Members get dumped by the voters this November.
