You’ve got to love the French! And j’adore my yahoo.fr news feed. The pivotal Senate race in Massachusetts made news in France, as it did elsewhere in the world, including the yummy youth of sexy Senator Scott Brown. 
I love, love, love that French news leads with the fact that Brown posed nude for Cosmopolitan in 1982, when he was a 22-year old law student. And voted America’s sexiest man back in the day! 
Of course, the Senator’s simmering stimulus package has been no secret for some time, and the sexy Cosmo coverage (?) of Scott Brown nude ought to be considered a classic clip, in my book.
No typical Republican, Brown is a man with independent views, and views in the news! And after Bedtime for Bonzo’s Great Communicator, the Governator, and the Hulk, why not the Hunk?
Nonetheless, a little more coverage on the Health Care Reform issue would make me, personally, feel less exposed.

A little Brown family “nude news update” – thanks to Huffington Post.
This is wonderful, you’re more au courant than I am. I’m ashamed.
However, the news was absolutely filled with the Massachusetts “upset” on all the French TV and radio stations and of course the print press. Late last night there was a major debate with the same people who one year before talked about Obama on the day of his swearing in. The argument (in the French definition of the word) went on for an hour with a division down the middle more or less like this: “He’s weak, can’t make a decision, what did people expect politics are politics, he doesn’t know how to lead, he’s not tough enough” OR “Give the guy a break it’s only been one year, he is measured and brilliant he does not make rash decisions, he will ultimately prove to be a remarkable leader” and so on.

do you really think this guy is ‘no typical republican’
i hope you are right because this country needs health care reform, and health care for all and right now it seems the world is revolves around the interests of a few rich folks and providing brainless entertainment to the masses
oh, the governator? he is as qualified to be governor as he is to portray hamlet. california is also plagued by money-interest politics and deadlock on the issues that effect real people
Still, I wonder how many women that have posed nude (and had it be known before the election) would be elected anything in this country.
Intriguing thought…
We need news like the French news… I hadn’t heard about this, but followed the race pretty closely.
Well CoachDad, I may need to reflect on French news more often! Particularly since they’re quite entertaining about the bits they choose to include as they reflect us back to ourselves. You might enjoy this tidbit from awhile back: https://dailyplateofcrazy.com/2009/06/16/french-dog-high-on-dope-recovering-nicely-after-rampant-case-of-munchies/
Hey CoachDad, you’ll get a kick out of this one. And the French will be chuckling at us once again! Check out Huffington Post’s piece on Scott Brown’s wife – a little more family nude news. I think it’s cute!
I had seen this many times in the past several weeks from both my republican and my democratic friends. Brown is a good choice for the people of the Commonwealth. He is not a Kennedy by any means but, as you note, not a follow the party republican either.
It will be interesting to see if there are problems, as were anticipated, with certification and being seated in the Senate.
If Sen. Brown were a woman, I’d follow those links. I seriously had no idea this guy posed like that. Wow. And a Republican? Double wow.
I heard this story and wondered the same.. a republican? and a woman is stoned for such business….
However- I am a cosmo girl.
Now, I’ve never been to France, but this epitomizes my stereotype of them 🙂 Not in a bad way, it’s just funny that the french mind goes here first. Oh, and I’m with David. If this was a link to a correspondingly attractive woman, I’d follow it!
You should check out the 1984 music video link (in one of the comments) – to Brown’s wife. It’s so innocent. And so 80s. But the media has called it racy. She’s a pretty woman, struttin’ her 80s stuff. (A little something for the guys.)
