"My goal is to turn 50 in some of the best shape of my life. It has nothing to do with any other plans."

Said Cory Booker, quoted in "The 2020 Field Is Growing. Some Waistlines Are Shrinking" (NYT).

And Kristen Gillibrand wants you to see this:

Sort of saggy breasts.

Why should WE care, Cory? I mean, good for you, and all that, but it's nothing to do with your political life.

chillblaine ayon kay ...

Cope Land - Guest Host Lush Limbaugh that's a beauty. Good joke there, old one. Funny stuff, also, you're a boob and that's wonderful. later

Anthony ayon kay ...

Sexist shirt.

Nonapod ayon kay ...

I wish I didn't know about these people's attempts at getting in shape. I really don't care and I wish most people didn't care either.

When someone is making a bid to become the most powerful person on the planet, I really don't care about their exercise or dietary habits. I care about what they've done with the power that they have had. And I care about what they might do if they do ascend to the power they're aspiring to. That's it.

Bay Area Guy ayon kay ...

Is it possible to unsee this somehow?

I didn't know Amy Schumer was running for office......

Kevin ayon kay ...

It's basically their way of splitting "New party, who dis?" down the middle, to their advantage. The oldies in the lead can't do this without looking like Dukakis in the tank.

Infinite Monkeys ayon kay ...

She may want us to see her photo, but the some of comments on Instagram are harsh. Not a good sign.

Peachy ayon kay ...

I'm more excited about some of the other radical leftists. or scared. Or terrified.

How leftwing is she?

Enlighten-NewJersey ayon kay ...

Lead like a girl? I would assume most adults aren’t interested in being led by a child.

Peachy ayon kay ...

I'd prefer Nikki Haley.

Limited blogger ayon kay ...

Where's Andrew?

rhhardin ayon kay ...

The original was run like a girl.

tcrosse ayon kay ...

Count the dumbbells.

Chuck ayon kay ...

Perhaps the best way for me to express my contempt for this “social media generation” douchebaggery is to suggest that “even Donald Trump’s Twitter account is better than this.”

The Bergall ayon kay ...

So the message is vote for me because I can lift weights?

Jaq ayon kay ...

If she is going to get into a “pretty” contest with Fidel O’Rourke, she’s going to lose.

Bay Area Guy ayon kay ...

One good thing, though. It means Hillary is kaput. In years past, the junior senator from NY would have had to ask Hillary's permission to make such a bold move.

Odds are KG just ignored ole' Hill, and went for it.

Jaq ayon kay ...

She may want us to see her photo, but the some of comments on Instagram are harsh. Not a good sign.

What do you think they do over at the Clinton Foundation?

Will Biden, Sanders, or Hillary back her?

Al Sharpton lost a lot of weight but he's still a racist douche.

If you ever observe animals lower down the food chain they sometimes engage in fitness displays so as not to get eaten.

Applies here as well.

mccullough ayon kay ...

Wear bright colored tights and tuck your shirt in. It will force you to work harder or to stop posting these photos.

Sarah Palin is two years older than Gillibrand and is in better shape. Hillary was in terrible shape. So is Trump. But Trump is a decent athlete.

Booker is pretty athletic guy. He needs to get in better shape to compete with Trump’s wife.

Kevin ayon kay ...

I'm waiting for Elizabeth Warren's Rocky video.

The one where she runs up Beacon Hill and shadow boxes outside John Kerry's house.

LordSomber ayon kay ...

Middle-aged try-hards are pathetic.

M Jordan ayon kay ...

Only one person got the message from Trump's historic run ... AOC. The others, R's and D's, are mimickers, weaklings, impostors. Show us your guns, Gillibrand. Claim your Spartacus moments, Booker. Get you a beer, Warren. You none get it and neither do Republicans.

Here's Trump's secret message hidden in plain view: Be yourself, be fearless, have a message. The middle one is the essence of Trumpism.

Bay Area Guy ayon kay ...

It would be good to ask KG what she has accomplished as Senator from NY.

Very few of these clowns ever do anything worthwhile. They simply check boxes (pro-choice, pro gay marriage, anti-Trump, blah, blah, blah).

AllenS ayon kay ...

Dumb belle.

Rick ayon kay ...

There's only one thing anyone needs to know about Gillibrand:

She supports the Red Guard and Kangaroo Courts on campus and hopes to export that model to the rest of society.

tim maguire ayon kay ...

I imagine it's an attempt to distance themselves from the geriatric wing of the party.

Lance ayon kay ...

Remember when Paul Ryan got slammed for working out in a goofy outfit? Me neither.

Seeing Red ayon kay ...

Lead like a girl?

Bullying and bossing?

Seeing Red ayon kay ...

Isn’t girl demeaning?

Jake ayon kay ...

She doesn't look as dumb as Paul Ryan did. Maybe she'll lie about her marathon time too.

Char Char Binks, Esq. ayon kay ...

She has the arms of a tranny, which is what the Dems are looking for in a candidate.

narciso ayon kay ...

She meant to take that picture?

Char Char Binks, Esq. ayon kay ...

I mean Kristin, not Cory. But that works too.

Bay Area Guy ayon kay ...

Is there a female equivalent of a Dad Bod?

If so, this is it.

Peachy ayon kay ...

She better up her game. The new hip and pretty is to go for the Marylin Monroe look.

Sexist breasts.

stevew ayon kay ...

First it was, "can i get me a beer" and now gym pics. It's going to be a long - perhaps interesting, probably entertaining - two years.

Trolls will be havin' a field day, especially the troll-in-chief.

Danno ayon kay ...

That picture screams white privilege. Just sayin.

Matt ayon kay ...

Gillibrand is absolutely indistinguishable from the scores of other women her age in the gym doing yoga or cross-fit or whatever it is they do (loudly bouncing medicine balls seems to be an up-and-coming woman's exercise). That's kind of the point: you're just there to work out, then leave.

Best case scenario: photos of working out are harmless. Worst case: everybody realizes that taking a photo while working out is self-indulgent and ridiculous.

“I'd prefer Nikki Haley.“

Why?

If we are going to go back to cap and trade, open borders, crony trade, and endless wars we don’t care about winning we have Democrats for that.

Nonapod ayon kay ...

I believe the biggest obstacle to Gillibrand securing the nomination by far is Harris. She's kind of an "and also" more than a main course. If somebody with a penis ends up securing the nomination, Gillibrand would be a shoe in for VP.

rehajm ayon kay ...

What do you think they do over at the Clinton Foundation?

Amusing how these front running hares act like the old tortoise is dead and buried.

Big Mike ayon kay ...

A face that would stop a runaway locomotive.

Earnest Prole ayon kay ...

If you're running as Kristen Milfibrand you'd better up your game.

Skeptical Voter ayon kay ...

Cory--er "Spartacus" says he's going to work out and trim his waist. Duh--a lot of politicians have managed to lose a bit of weight before hitting the campaign trail.

Kersten shows us that she has visited a gym--at least once.

Beto, the Bobby Kennedy look alike, shows us he visits the dental hygienist.

Well okay--do any of these three clowns actually have some kind of platform to offer for review. I mean I visit the dental hygienist twice a year, but that doesn't make me presidential timber.

bagoh20 ayon kay ...

How heavy do they think the pens are in the Oval Office? Trump probably works harder and longer than any recent President without visiting the gym, but he does always have a hot wife to keep him in shape.

narciso ayon kay ...

The dental cleaning is a metaphor for what betos presidency would be for us.

lgv ayon kay ...

Where's her mattress? She needs to carry a mattress around, and quit subbing it out. That will keep her in shape.

I think she looks good for her age, but she doesn't look near as good as when she is made up. The lighting is harsh and she looks like someone who hit the gym for the first time in at least a year.

Need a new candidate tage..."trying too hard", which includes Warren's beer video.



Char Char Binks, Esq. ayon kay ...

"Is there a female equivalent of a Dad Bod?"

How about Mom Bod?

stevew ayon kay ...

On second look, those weights may be photo shopped in - her stance is not proper for lifting and holding weights like that. She's got pretty good guns though, no flabby arms for her, she's doing something right.

Original Mike ayon kay ...

Blogger tcrosse said..."Count the dumbbells."

There. Are. Five. Dumbbells.

Rae ayon kay ...

The goal is to distinguish themselves from Hillary Clinton, and it's hilarious.

Yancey Ward ayon kay ...

I am old enough to remember Ronald Reagan being photographed working out with weights- this is nothing new.

rehajm ayon kay ...

Lead like a girl? Like: Pb like a girl? Like the dense, soft, malleable, low melting point element?

chuck ayon kay ...

Remember when JFK, a physical wreak, was the embodiment of physical fitness? Remember touch football and all that? He ruined the Democratic party, which has been all about looks and BS ever since. Beto is the political version of Victoria's Secret.

Dickin'Bimbos@Home said..."...How leftwing is she?"?.....1/16/19, 10:47 AM

Depends on her audience and what office she's running for!
She originally was from NY's 20th District, which is quite conservative. Then she was appointed Senator and began to market herself to another audience. When she ran in the elections, for the Senate seat she was handed, she had to move significantly to the Left because she needed voters from NYC. But, like all politicians, she'll prostitute herself to whomever just to get collect the power of the office. Wasn't impressed with her in NY and still not impressed with her first outing as presidential candidate.

Bilwick ayon kay ...

She should also lift some books on economics. She could probably substitute Von Mises' hefty magnum opus, HUMAN ACTION, for a kettlebell. Sound ideas in a sound body, you know.

Hindi-nagpakilala ayon kay ...

She's still going to develop turkey wings.
No sleeveless campaign events for her.

Unknown ayon kay ...

Sure wish AOC could run

Brazilian Bikini contest!!!!

She's from Brazil, right?

Char Char Binks, Esq. ayon kay ...

'AllenS said...
Dumb belle.'

Winner."

Not at all. It's a loser, considering that the definition of belle is "a beautiful girl or woman, especially the most beautiful at a particular event or in a particular group."

I'll grant that she is the most beautiful woman in that pic.

Char Char Binks, Esq. ayon kay ...

I can't vouch for whether or not she's dumb.

Earnest Prole ayon kay ...

How leftwing is she?

Like Hillary she's on the right side of the Democrats' increasingly leftwing coalition, and like Hillary she has no fixed principles. Things that might seem principled, like taking a strong stand against Bill Clinton, are purely self-interested.

Inga...Allie Oop ayon kay ...

She’s got bigger muscles than most of you Trumpist men, I’d wager.

Howard ayon kay ...

Healthy lifestyle is a liberal conspiracy for you deplorables to envy-hate.

You'd lose.
Again.

Bilwick ayon kay ...

Inga, this advice might also interest you:

"She should also lift some books on economics. She could probably substitute Von Mises' hefty magnum opus, HUMAN ACTION, for a kettlebell. Sound ideas in a sound body, you know."

Although it probably won't. Actual reading (as opposed to just swallowing and then regurgitating the Hive's party line) is HARD.

Inga...Allie Oop ayon kay ...

“Actual reading (as opposed to just swallowing and then regurgitating the Hive's party line) is HARD.”

You would know as a TrumpCultist.

Drago ayon kay ...

Inga: "She’s got bigger muscles than most of you Trumpist men, I’d wager."

Losing ain't much of a living.

However, there is no question she has bigger muscles than the lefty soy boys: https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2013/12/opinion-rich-lowry-obamacare-affordable-care-act-pajama-boy-an-insufferable-man-child-101304

In his defense, he is probably preparing to transition.

Drago ayon kay ...

Infa: "You would know as a TrumpCultist"

Read any good hoax dossiers lately?

Inga...Allie Oop ayon kay ...

Just another thread of Derangement Syndrome by Trumpists. This time it’s Gillibrand Derangement Syndrome...yawn.

Drago ayon kay ...

Whats funny is Inga has absolutely no idea who Von Mises was.

Inga...Allie Oop ayon kay ...

Drago, you should volunteer your services with the Mueller Invesigation since you seem to have inside info, but that might mean you’d have to pass a background check...

Inga...Allie Oop ayon kay ...

Drago assumes he knows much about any given person, emphasis on ASSume.

Darrell ayon kay ...

You lift 35 pounds and what do you get?

Bilwick ayon kay ...

Ings, I'm a Trump Cultist the way you're an economist.

Bilwick ayon kay ...

"Whats funny is Inga has absolutely no idea who Von Mises was."

Indeed. If she did she wouldn't assume I'm a "Trump Cultist," but it's like "racist:" a knee-jerk labeling of pro-freedom people, much beloved by the stupid.

Drago ayon kay ...

Inga: "Drago, you should volunteer your services with the Mueller Invesigation since you seem to have inside info, but that might mean you’d have to pass a background check..."

Why do I need to volunteer for Muellers teams when you have been providing steady Mueller Team Mind-reading services for almost 2 years now?

Apparently, nurses from WI also have the inside scoop on Security Clearances.

Not surprising really, since the dems under obama sure made it easy for the Chinese and Russians to literally steal all Security Clearance background info on all Americans.

But only all of them.

And only in fine, dem approved fashion.

William ayon kay ...

Here's you have it. Photographic evidence that the Democrats, at long last, have found a woman with not just the mental but also the physical toughness to take on raging misogynists like Al Franken. I'd like to see Franken try to pinch her ass. He'd end up frank n beans. By God, the Democrats are no longer the party of Harvey Weinstein, Al Franken, and Bill Clinton. Rapists and fanny pinchers go elsewhere. Dynamite KEG will blow you out of the water.

Tank ayon kay ...

MayBee ayon kay ...

This election cycle is going to be awful, isn't it.

Neither KEG nor Booker are likely to be dragged into a getaway van, so they have that going for them.

In direction, magnitude and duration.

tcrosse ayon kay ...

Some of the commenters are upset that we Althouse Hillbillies are throwing barbs at Democrat candidates. How will they feel when those candidates start throwing shit at each other?

rcocean ayon kay ...

She looks like an ugly 65 y/o man.

But great Biceps!

rcocean ayon kay ...

BTW, her dumbbell weights are 17.5 kg Power-weights.

So she's lifting about 70 lbs. - which is pretty good for a 50 y/o girl with massive biceps.

rcocean ayon kay ...

She could beat Jeff Flake in a fair fight.

Just sayin'. Sometimes its the fight in the dog..etc.

Leland ayon kay ...

Out of touch, she doesn't realize that Crossfit is the thing these days, and she should be lifting a sandbag or a truck tire over her head. At least she isn't talking about Yoga instead of Pilates.

Not Sure ayon kay ...

She clearly supports the right to bare guns.

The Gipper Lives ayon kay ...

She could tone up if she carried a mattress around!

Nice of her to label herself. I wasn't sure from the photo.

ah Rachel campos the only good thing about the real world, which permeated the infosphere, like a t 4 virus, around 1994,

Tom T. ayon kay ...

How can Gillibrand send out this picture, coincident with announcing her presidential run, without holding up dumbbells that say 20 and 20? Huge missed opportunity.

rcocean ayon kay ...

Well, mea culpa. They ARE 17.5 lbs dumbbells.

17.5 lbs weights made no sense to do me. That's why I googled 17.5 kg weights and found them.

But 17.5 Lbs = 8 Kg. It figures.

So, instead of using 20 lbs. weights - like any normal AMERICAN - Gillbrand uses weirdo foreign 8 KG weights!

Anyway, that's pathetic. 35 lbs? At least she can beat up Ginsberg.

James K ayon kay ...

How can Gillibrand send out this picture, coincident with announcing her presidential run, without holding up dumbbells that say 20 and 20? Huge missed opportunity.

Obviously this tells you she's so weak she couldn't hold up two 20-pound dumbbells, because she would have if she was able.

Jodhpurs. Melania looks ten times better wearing them.

The powerline link is about how she was mercenary enough to work for the tobacco companies but not say for a real cause say a human rights issue.

Absolutely hilarious witty comments, time to just point and laugh. Chuckles and it is only halfway through January 2019.
MAGA

Tina Trent ayon kay ...

Beto videos himself getting plaque removed. Gillenbrand is wearing pedophile bait in a gym. Corey Booker can't open his mouth without sounding like a Grinder ad.

These people are weirdos with terrible ideas.

MadisonMan ayon kay ...

I didn't vote for Hillary because she couldn't bench press 100 pounds.

So these Democrats are obviously pursuing my vote.

rcocean ayon kay ...

"I didn't vote for Hillary because she couldn't bench press 100 pounds."

Really? that doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

But whatever.
