Liberal site's readers vote Republican 'Hottest Freshman'
Republican Rep. Aaron Schock won a Huffington Post readers' poll to determine the hottest freshman Congress.
WASHINGTON (CNN) – Who says bipartisanship is dead?
Readers of the liberal Web site the Huffington Post have crossed ideological lines and voted Illinois Republican Rep. Aaron Schock the “Hottest Freshman” in the 111th Congress.
At age 27, Schock also has the distinction of being the youngest member of Congress.
Although nearly 10,000 votes were cast in the site’s poll, Schock suggested that he might have gotten some help from some participants who weren’t exactly unbiased. “It’s flattering,” the congressman said in a statement Wednesday. “Apparently my friends and family have a lot of time on their hands.”
Schock hails from Peoria, Illinois and represents the state’s 18th District in the House of Representatives.

If he keep hanging out with the republicans, cute will go straight out the window..........
my wife and her nursing colleagues were swooning over him a few years ago when he spoke at a nursing convention in Springfield IL. I hear he's gay though... so don't get yer hopes up too high ladies.
Never heard of him. Next.
daggone sex crazied liberals....we'll see what daddy Rush has to say about THIS!!!
Wish this young man the best in modernizing the old ideas of his party!
Huh
you democrats are hilarious. Matt...give me a break, get over yourself. Rob, you shallow shadow of a man. Baze, you are an idiot as well...age means little in the grand scheme of things; it is wisdom and experience. As far as experience goes we know the great messiah himself has experimented. With cocaine, weed, and who knows what else.
Betty Anne Jones: 'too bad he is gay"
Who do you think voted for him?
Unfortunate choice of party. Calls into question his I.Q. etc.......
ermmmmm, you know young guys are... inexperienced... I thought most GOP think that way? And blacks are..... GOP are definitely not creative. First, they elected the first black to be their leader (years behind Democrats), now they find a dude (man, many from Democrats already). And many begin to use facebook.... and I call facebook outdated. Man.... GOP has not idea what's the future all about!
All a smoke screen>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Matt @ 1:58:
From someone whose body he'd try to pass laws on, THANK YOU.
I bet they surveyed 1,000 liberal males.........
Well, it's always nice when something good comes out if Illinois. At least he's cuter than Blago.
The dilution of people who are elected to safeguard the public interest and trust, to abide by the laws, to make the laws that the populace then has to follow is troubling. What would our forefathers think of the sexualization of leaders of the free world? Turning people like Obama into celebrities and celebrating them before they have contributed solidly to the public welfare is just plain stupid.
No doubt he is hot. The real question is......is he as backward thinking, racist, intellectually void dunce like the other beauty queen.....caribou barbie!
Good for him....
However, I am more impressed by how young he is.......this is our future.
That's great. His mom willbe so proud.
Message to "the hottest freshman" and all his fellow lawmakers: analyze, prioritize, subsidize.
Wait hes stealing the show for Mr. Steele. What's up with that! hahaha....that's what I think.
If he can read and has his teeth, without even speaking a word, he's already ahead of half of the [R] population.
and Limbaugh and McCain tie for the hottest senior!
This guy's hope for America's youth. I know that terms like: Honor, honestly, responsibility, self-respect...are new to you liberal pukes, but you'll get used to it. If it's not controversial, damning to the nation, Anti-American, or down right disgusting and immoral...you fools disagree with it....
A lot of good-looking politicians come from Illinois !
i can see barney wanting to become closer friends.
@ excusme.....You are down grading Ron Howard, when you
called him "opie"........
