Republicans Say the Darndest Things - Female Candidate Too Ugly to Win

State Representative 
Steve Vaillancourt (R-New Hampshire)

U.S. Representative Ann McLane Kuster (D- New Hampshire) is running for re-election in New Hampshire.  She is being challenged by Marilinda Garcia (R).  Last week, state representative Steve Vaillancourt wrote a lengthy blog post explaining why Ms. Kuster was likely to lose her re-election bid, explaining that "looks matter in politics."

"Let's be honest, does anyone not believe that Congressman Annie Kuster is as ugly as sin?  And I hope I haven't offended sin...Sad to say, but the drag queens are more atrractive(sic) than Annie Kuster."

Ms. Garcia condemned Mr. Vaillancourt's comments as sexist, adding that they have "absolutely no place in political discourse."
I have to wonder if "Stevie" has looked in the mirror lately.
