[mvd]

3. I like Erica Leerhsen

If I see her more, she might make my list. :-)

[cryfordawn]

4. Sam Elliot

He is the big one. It isn't the looks so much as the voice. I could wake out of a sound sleep to his voice. Woo hoo. Okay time to go and watch roadhouse.

[wryter2000]

5. Howard Dean

Sigh :loveya:

[Lydia Leftcoast]

6. mvd, your list reminds me of a line from The Turning Point

Mikhail Baryshnikov's character is trying to seduce Lesley Browne's character, and he starts to say, "I like girls who..."

One of his former conquests walks by and says sarcastically, "You just like girls, Misha."

:-)

[mvd]

7. LOL

Well, a certain type, attractively cute and down to earth, does interest me the most. :-)

[aljones]

8. GOPisEvil!!!

very proud to say so!!!

smile ally

[SarahB]

9. Colin Firth

Followed very closely by Tim Robbins, but I thinks Colin's doing it for me more now. (sorry Tim) Hugh Grant would be up there. Even oddly, David Letterman and Conan O'Brien and oh yes, Ed Norton. :7

[Whitacre D_WI]

10. Sarah Polley.

Beautiful. Talented. Leftist.

What more needs to be said? :shrug:

[liberalhistorian]

45. Johnny Depp!

Incredibly handsome. Extremely talented. Very leftist. What more needs to be said? :evilgrin: :bounce:

[Codeine]

11. Molly Shannon!

My God that woman makes me crazy! Beautiful and hysterically funny.

[Champ]

12. Only one

BlondieK143 :)

13. Alton Brown!

A nerd AND a foodie (and, check out his Rands and Raves -- http://www.altonbrown.com/pages/rants.html ).

[dolo amber]

29. Seconded!!

Man, eyesroll...some total weirdo I know told me the other day "I know so many women who want to spread for him" (meaning Alton)...can you imagine?! I thought it was just the two of us! :D

(This guy's not quite right in the heid tho, so I pay very little attn to anything he says anyway. ;))

[Lydia Leftcoast]

14. An actual acquaintance, as opposed to a celebrity,

not a DUer, though.

And that's all I'm saying.

[Endangered Specie]

15. notice the trekkian trend:

7 (of course, better known as 36 of D)
Tpol and Hoshi, :)
Dax, both of them.

[TOhioLiberal]

17. Robert Duncan McNeil

B.K.A. Tom Paris...What can I say? Good looking and a liberal. My kinda guy!

[Endangered Specie]

19. most federation are liberal I think.

No Riker? my mom loved him.

[TOhioLiberal]

21. He always irritated me...

...trying too hard to be a JT Kirk clone. I like John DeLancie (Q) also, don't know if he's liberal. I must have a thing for 'bad' boys...

[Endangered Specie]

22. "some women can't resist the bad boys"

-Hoshi

[chaska]

16. Gladys

Knight. Where you been?

[mvd]

23. Too old for me

:hi:

[chaska]

30. It's about the voice, man (!!!).

Technically, she's too old for me too.

[mvd]

31. I will agree that she's a great singer

Just not a crush, though.

[belladonna]

18. My biggest crush

That would have to be Jon Stewart. Funny, smart and obviously liberal, all the traits I look for in a man. :loveya:

I also have a strange crush that I still haven't figured out and that would be on Eminem. Go figure on that one :shrug:

[2cents]

20. All time favorite -- Sophia Loren

Help meeeee!

I'm immensely proud of my crush on Beth Broderick -exceedingly drop dead gorgeously attractive, intelligent, a great actress and to top it all of a liberal

[mvd]

I wasn't even aware of Nicole da Silva. That pic is as close to my feminine ideal as any I've ever seen.

[Commendatori]

43. Isn't she?

I'm not surprised you hadn't heard of her, she's apparently a German pop singer who sings Latino music. I am studying German (I just started), and found her in some German magazine I picked up. She sure looks great to me :)

[On the Road]

41. I Don't Know if I'm Proud or Not

but as far as being "drawn" to women, Padma Lakshmi is about as high on scale as you can get afaic:

[RandomKoolzip]
