Politics Who's Hotter: Joe Fitzgibbon or Scott Sizemore?
Posted by Cienna Madrid on Fri, Jul 30, 2010 at 11:15 AM
If you've scanned our primary endorsements, you know we have a bit of a crush on 34th District challenger Joe Fitzgibbon. Our crush has appalled a few people—not because we're objectifying Fitzgibbon instead of focusing all our attention on The Issues, but because some people don't think he's the hottest guy running for office. For instance, Scott Sizemore—who's challenging incumbent Jim McDermott for the 7th Congressional seat—doesn't "get" our attraction to Fitzgibbon.
I ran into Sizemore at an event last night. He was in the mood to argue—not over our endorsement of Jim McDermott over him—but with Fitzgibbon's touted hotness. You see, Scott Sizemore thinks that Scott Sizemore is the hottest guy around. "I'm more cut than he is," he said. "And I've got a prettier face."
"Prove it," I said, and then he made this face:
- Scott Sizemore is a poser.
Meanwhile, across town, Eli Sanders was watching Joe Fitzgibbon drink. Here's a candid shot of Fitzgibbon, also taken last night (Fitzgibbon is on the right. Please ignore the other very attractive man to his left):
- Is it getting hot in here or is it just me?
Clearly, this is an issue the voters should weigh in on. To the polls!
1
I would so vote for Joe, but just the name SIZEMORE makes me a bit weak... can we ask them to pose nude to finish the argument?
3
Can we please have a third option like the hot guy from the Washington Bus? He is clearly the HOTtest of the three of them.
4
I voted for Joe, but only because he won the Turkish oil wrestling, and Scott only got third place.
7
Joe has better hair and endurable facial features.
He's a hottie in the long run. Look at his hands!

Fitzfibbons was maybe the only politician whose CHBP appearance wasn't embarrassingly awkward and pandery.
11
Only 12% love for girly-looking boys with chin pubes? I thought there'd be more lesbians reading this blog/rag.
13
Fitzgibbon (and Toby too) score way higher on technical points, but Sizemore is just the sort of eyelash-batting hot mess I go for.
16
@15, if I had to guess from these photos I'd say Joe has no hair yet down there, Toby clearly uses his Groomsman every single day, but Scott's all like, "it's just a little fungus, everyone's got some".
18
From those photos, I'd go for Joe.
But if Scott would shave that shitty little patch off his chin, I'd switch my vote in a second. I love that fey look and the silly hands. He's clearly making no attempt whatsoever to appear butch. That scores points. And you know that if he parts his hair in the middle like that, it means he smokes pot, right? (Let the record show that I also parted my hair in the middle when I was in high school.) The fact that I'm going on and on about him must mean something. It means: shave that shit off your chin, dammit!

Aw. I feel bad for the guy only getting 15% of the vote. But that picture isn't doing him any favors...
22
I voted for the guy Scott, he obviously has a sense of humor with that pose. . . .but truthfully, neither canidate is very hot.. .it's the bearded guy on the left who is HOT!
24
@22 et al--clearly beardy on the left is the hottest. That is indisputable, which is why he wasn't included in the poll. If he ever runs for office, I promise you there will be many pictures of him on slog, fondling his stapler.
25
From Sizemore's candidate staement:
"The office of a Congressman comes with a price of two years and the scorn of an entire nation. It is a harsh and dirty job, filled with peril and devoid of grace. To accept this position is to give the constituency a piece of one's life."
What a tool.

@25 nah, we love our Congressman Jim McDermott ... if you come to the 43rd Dems BBQ on Saturday 11-3 at Ravenna Park you'll see it's true.
27
Yeah, I really like the bearded dude... simply gorgeous, but he wasn't up for the vote... so, I guess it's a write in. The pretty boy is fine, but he is not the challenge I enjoy and always overcome.

A) The bar for politicos is somewhat lower than for oh say any other profession. Like they say, D.C. is Hollywood for ugly people.
B) Joe Fitzgibbon is the hottest politico since Dave Upthegrove. He's also really nice and super qualified. However, the Stranger's lust for Fitzgibbon kind of creeped me out. I mean, I know this primary is boring as hell, but don't be surprised if you get hit with a restraining order. Just saying.
C) Sizemore is, in fact, a tool. (His business card has a magician's hat and mustache on it-- with no mention that he's running for Congress.)
D) Toby Crittendon from the Bus is smokin'-- so fine I will break my iron-clad "No Hipsters" rule to admit as much. You should stalk him next.

All of you are haters. Scott is a well informed, intelligent, and well...studious man. I'm ashamed of those who have commented, on the obviously last minute, photo of him. I doubt you have even slightly researched his endeavors and if you truly looked into him, you'd know he's very sexy, smart, and well informed. For shame!!! Shun the non-believers...shuuuuunnnn---nuuuuu.
