I don't think women would think Aaron Schock is such a "hottie" if they knew Aaron did not support equal pay for women.

he's NOT "Doogie" stop it with the comparisons

he's a Republican who will take away your rights. google his CPAC message and you will "hear" that he is no different than the current Rethuglicans, no difference in neo-con ideology of the last eight years!

As fast as he becams a Congressman its too bad his poor judgement in joining the party of "NO" will lead to his fall about as quick.

Is he related to Gina of the Go-Go's?

This kid is not "hot". He is a Republican. He wants to take away your right to use birth control. He picketed Planned Parenthood in Peoria for a decade screaming that birth control should be illegal. There is nothing "hot" about that.

He's pathetic.

He's hot, high drool factor. He's also a jerk. If it helps think of him as the Republican answer to "blonde".

He tried to up one on Obama on the senate floor saying how the caterpillar workers even when facing lay-offs urged him to oppose the bill....why would someone working in heavy machinery oppose a bill that will increase infrastructure spending - meaning more contracts?

Sounded like cheap populism to his base, which was a disappointment.

Caterpillar is afraid of "buy-American" in the stimulus... many of their customers are not American, and they're afraid they'll refuse to buy the Caterpillar machine if Caterpillar is restricted to using American steel and no imported parts. Their buyers will adopt a tit-for-tat attitude and refuse to buy American exports... He wasn't just blowing hot air - it was a valid concern for those constituents of his.

Make that House floor. Schock is a Representative, not a Senator.

Is this country all about beauty....

Sounds like some people have their heads buried when it comes to the
state America is in.

Should be more focused on who has "brains and wisdom" in our
Government. We are going to need more people who know how to solve problems.

There is enough sex and so called beauty in Hollywood.
Sure don't need to have it gushed over in the White House and Congress.

At least where republicans are concerned what else is there to gush over?

He's cute. And, compared to some politicians in congress he's HOT. (Mind you, compared to most British politicians he's hot)

We're probably looking at the future of the Republican Party, unless he comes to his senses.

I think our freshman Congressman from New Mexico is handsomer than this guy. Check out: Martin Heinrich!!!

I looked Heinrich up. He IS goodlooking! I still like Schock though.

Hottest what?

What can I say ...the kid is a prodigy! Schoke for President in 2016!!

If you want him for President then you wouldn't mind Palin either, right?
They share a lot of views.

I hope he is for equality. :>
