The Huckabees - Too Ugly for the White House?

This is a serious question. One thing that's always bouncing about in my head is how our view of physical appearance has changed since the 1980's. People who then were viewed as amazing sex symbols would be today's wallflowers. Seriously, go back and look at the old music videos. Major objects of desire would, in a world 20 years later, be roasted for being too fat or too pale or lacking muscle tone. That said, is there any way that the country that we've become would vote to put a family that looks like this in the White House? Thankfully for Huckabee I presume those children are now grown and out of sight. But really, could a family that looked like that win?

Oh, and I too hope the puppy survived the photo shoot.

This photo scares me because of the stripey shirts. It's as if the Huckabees were a pack of used-car dealers moonlighting as a barbershop quartet.
