It's not a pretty scene down on the floor of the DNC.

Being somewhat of a political junkie, I can't resist watching the horror show that is the Democratic National Convention. Yet, this post is not political, save to say that it is a safe bet that I won't be voting for their nominee.

That said...I must make an observation and this is it: For the love of all that's good, are there not ANY good looking female democrats. Most of the speakers have railed against the budget deficit; but nary a word about the reasonably good looking woman deficit at this convention? Yikes! I feel like I'm stuck in that Seinfeld episode where the girlfriend is beautiful one minute and a hag the next; but with these DNC troglodytes, there are no good looking moments. No matter how wide the camera angle, it never catches a drop dead, good looking female face or form. And it's not one bit better on the stage either. Pelosi, Michelle, and Hillary are each capable of haunting an eleven room house by themselves. You know you've got problems when Chelsea Clinton might possibly be the best looking woman in the room.

So, what gives? If the beautiful people of popular culture are as Democratic Party oriented as they appear, and in many cases claim to be, then why not shuttle in a few thousand Hollywood grade babes to, at the very least, stand around on the convention floor to help "pretty up" the crowd?

Where are the glamour-pusses when you need them? Julia?, Charlize?, Sandra: Your party needs you! It's frightening down on the floor of the Pepsi Center...and tonight they're moving the show to Invesco Field where there are fifty thousand more seats; and that means fifty thousand more opportunities for camera shots of dour, life-long democrats with hairy legs and caterpillar eye brows.

Where is your patriotism you gorgeous babes of tinsel town? Have you no sense of duty?
