"It was so surreal, all of the women in the Senate used to talk about how he would figure out some way, every time he had a conversation, to work in something about his body. Like, 'I was on the treadmill in the gym this morning and I saw you on MSNBC,' or 'You know, I was running at lunch today and' — and he did it to all of us! We all compared notes."

"Do people even know who he is? Wow. He will do anything to show his body."
Said Claire McCaskill about Scott Brown.

Pride meets good manners. We all make mistakes.
Some people consider it a kindness to offer some form of polite correction.
An ethical conundrum: Somebody at a business meeting has parsley or spinach or something stuck in their teeth. Do you let them know?
One of the nice things about being an older man who keeps himself in good shape is that women will volunteer to pay you a compliment.
No prompt is required.
It helps if they know you're not on the make.
Yep, the fact that he talked a lot(?) about his body is far and away more important than if he kept his word and honored his agreements! We have to keep our priorities straight!
Claire looks as though she could use a little time on the treadmill herself.
(Yes, that's rude. Sauce for the gander, sauce for the goose.)
Another ethical conundrum: Somebody at a birthday party has remnants of semen on their chin. Do you let them know?
Note: there were no oysters at the birthday party.
To clarify.
I am Laslo.
"Note: there were no oysters at the birthday party."
Because everyone knows about the "Oyster Excuse."
I am Laslo.
Brown talking about his body, all the girls comparing notes.....
It's not the Senate, it's a high school lunch room.
Is mentioning that he was running talking about his body? When I saw that lead in, I was expecting something more like, "Check out these guns," or "Watch how much I can squat and bench."
"I was jogging this morning and thought," is... well, uh, a description of what he was doing when? Maybe the click through full article is more scandalous?
Saying you saw her on MSNBC while on a treadmill isn't exactly showing off your body per se. First, was it really MSNBC Scott Brown was watching? She should name someone who she compared notes with in order to corroborate the story. Just another bullets over Bosnia story.
I have loads of women I know who tell me about Zumba, Yoga, running, jogging, hot Yoga, etc., etc.
I was unaware they were showing off their bodies to me.
It seems Senator Brown made an impression. t was McCaskill who brought him up in the interview. You might think someone's got a thing for him.
Wait, she's complaining about him posing shirtless?
Why is she slut shaming Scott Brown?
I guess one of the down sides to being Arnold Schwarzenegger is nobody ever offers you a compliment for keeping yourself in shape.
The reporter should have asked her thoughts about that slut O'Malley doing Putin imitations
They should try to work that into his next movie.
Kinda meta.
I offer that one for free. No charge.
Maybe he told the male senators the same thing.
UNOBTAINABLE HOT CHICK: You're in pretty good shape for an old man. You lift weights or something?
CHARACTER PLAYED BY ARNOLD: I was born this way.
Why is Claire focused on Scott Browns body?
Claire is full of shit. This is a sexist hit job.
That's weird stuff. She seems obsessed. Not by Brown's body but by her own weirdness. What's her book called, something like "Not at all ladylike"? That's from something a teacher told her in grade school, 50-odd years ago?
No, not ladylike.
@Althouse, you believe Claire McCaskill? Why? Because she's a Democrat politician? Or is it the case in your experience that women never, ever lie?
I would pretty much sum this up as, some male senators like to brag about their bodies and some female senators like to be catty.
What's her take on Wiener?....,,i think she's had some work done. Not so much as Pelosi, but some work. Is it hypocritical for a plastic surgery recipient to criticize another person for being vain about their body?
Claire could use some time on a slant board and on a treadmill.
She should do some brain work as well since she is intensely stupid.
Doctor shows Claire an inkblot.
"Couple screwing" says Claire.
Doctor shows Claire another inkblot.
"Threesome" says Claire.
Doctor shows Claire another inkblot.
"Blow-job" says Claire.
"You're obsessed with sex" says the Doctor.
"Me? You're the one with the dirty pictures."
My guess is she felt rejected after unsuccessfully flirting with him and apparently she wasn't the only unattractive female senator sniffing around the poor guy.
"Anything to show off his body???"
It's not like he pulled a Weiner or anything.
I really hoped he would beat her in the 2014 election -- and he almost did.
My guess is if he were some average looking guy, talking about running wouldn't raise an eyebrow. But he's handsome, so when Claire heard him mention running, she thought of how he looked running.
"Show his body" is a weird term, no, to describe talking about running?
Or pulled out a Weiner, for that matter.
This seems to be an unreasonable complaint, he was a model - what else is he going to talk about?
There are a lot of people who spend a good bit of time working out, and seem a bit obsessed with their bodies. A subset of these people also try to bring attention to this, probably in an effort to solicit compliments. They are kind of shallow and either a bit vain, or a bit insecure and seeking to compensate.
So, Scott Brown is one of those people according to Claire McCaskill. Noted.
So what? Is she going to tell us more shockers, like Donald Trump likes to brag about his wealth?
"Show his body" is a weird term
The Tennessee Coates Style Guide would suggest "show his people-who-think-they-are-white body".
Well, the only reason Republicans have to listen to her is they managed to nominate the weakest opponent they could come up with in her last Senate race. Let this be a lesson!
If I had a really big dick I'd be pulling it out at every opportunity.
I mean, what's the point of having it if nobody knows you've got it?
Kind of like a doomsday device.

You could avoid jail time by wearing really tight pants.
Or take David Bowie's role in a remake of The Labyrinth.
Those bad sexist men are being horribly sexist...again, and again by walking around and speaking. What is a poor little girl US Senator to do? Words are like Rape.
His body, his choice...those women are being sexist!! (or..like a black can't be racist..can a women be sexist?? Please let me know, because I don't have a copy of the rule book!!)
bgates- hahahhahaha!
Lots of people are into working out and like to talk about it. One reason is cause working out is fun. This is not showing off one's body
Can't wait for this "somebody's wife" to be voted out of office. It was dumb of her to tip her hand on the whole "donate to Akin" strategy. Then again, this is Claire.
Talking about exercise = doing anything to show his body?
Dem chicks projecting.
The country is in the best of hands.
Claire is just doing her best to make us remember she is an idiot and everyone that voted for her is stupid.
Maybe Scott was subtly trying to hint that the ladies need to hit the gym. Naturally they figured he was being vain. It never occurred to them that their flab was his motive.
"the only reason Republicans have to listen to her is they managed to nominate the weakest opponent they could come up with in her last Senate race."
She provided quite a bit of help to Atkins.
Sarah Palin and the Tea Party supported another candidate.
I find what Claire said to be triggering
Last night at the Bada Bing, I paid a chick $20 to tell me all about her Pilates class.
ARM: "You could avoid jail time by wearing really tight pants."
Finally! Practical advice from ARM.
That's kind of funny, McCaskill brings him up for no reason, turns the conversation to his body, then complains about him always bringing up his body. And, of course, TalkingPointsMemo totally misses what she's doing.
If I were him and wanted to talk about something I saw on MSNBC, I'd be sure to include the fact that I didn't choose the channel. TalkingPointsMemo, of course, missed that too.
Working out is not fun, it's work. That's why they call it working out. I'm not in the service anymore, and I don't have to do it, so I don't. I did continue push ups for several years until my shoulders gave out, but it was not fun.
Sounds like he was always exercising and referencing it. How's that a reference to his body? I'm sure he was trying to impress that tub of lard, not!
Funny how claire kept changinging the state she had her private plane in so she could avoid paying Missouri taxes on it even though Missouri required residents to pay taxes on their planes regardless of where it was registered and she failed to do so. Funny how john kerry did the same with his, as the new york times would call it, "His humble 50 foot fishing sailboat."
