White House Hotties: A Postscript
Monday, June 19th, 2006
As promised, here’s our quick postscript on our White House Hotties contest. We’re going to close the loop on a few items and offer up some amusing addenda about the competition.
First, a special message to the reader who sent us this email, well after the polls closed: “Mi voto es por Paul Skoczylas.” Sorry, but we didn’t count your “voto.” In addition to being three hours late, it was excluded by our “English only” rule.
Second, in response to our question about the hotness of Josh McCoy, Ben Wilmoth’s unofficial campaign manager, we received a photograph of Josh. You can check it out after the jump.
Third, we received several additional pictures of the male hottie winner, David Copley. They also appear after the jump.
Finally, even though their candidate didn’t win, we have to give a Wonkette salute to the supporters of Emily House. “Team Emily” came up with the most innovative and creative campaign by far. Check out their blog here, their new T-shirt design here, and their latest campaign video here:
Additional statements from Team Emily, as well as an earlier campaign video, appear after the jump.
We had fun with the White House Hotties contest — and it seems like the Bushies did too. So check back soon, to learn about our next exciting hotties competition.
