Leader of the French, President Sarkozy, is a seriously lucky man. He's dating a former super model! Carla Bruni is hot. And I decided we need a term for women like her, so I came up with FLILF. You know like a MILF except it's First Lady I'd Like to BLEEP instead of Mom I'd Like to BLEEP. Yes, very clever, I know.

Politicians seem to be lucky enough to get themselves women that would be way out of their league on a normal basis. I'm not saying Sarkozy isn't cute, he is. But, cute enough to date a super model? I'm not so sure about that. He looks like my grandpa, but she definitely doesn't look like my grandma!

And we don't have to go all the way across the big pond to find more examples of this trend. Looking right in America's backyard you'll see that plenty of politicians here have figured out the magic formula too. Take Fred Thompson, for example. Jeri Thompson, the well endowed blond he calls his wife, looks young enough to be his daughter! John McCain's wife Cindy is pretty much a babe too, and rumor has it even that's not good enough for him. He's got a little something on the side with a different girl who's supposed to be hot as well(although I couldn't find any pictures, sorry). Even Elizabeth Kucinich, Dennis' wife, is a beautiful modelesque redhead who stands about a foot taller than him.

So ladies, what is it about politicians and power that gets our panties in a bunch? How do these averagely attractive men attract the likes of the Carla Bruni's of the world?
