RSS Feed MenuApparently bad teeth turn voters off – especially in New York’s 23rd congressional district.
Recognizing this, Doug Hoffman has decided to take a page from Ralph Lauren by digitally editing away a physical imperfection. Who needs Crest Whitening Strips when you can photoshop-bleach your teeth?
The difference is obvious when you compare this picture from a recently released campaign ad to the campaign’s official photo of Hoffman:
Also evident is the photoshop magic that reduced some of the redness on his face. Maybe he also used the “blur” function to soften those harsh Republican edges?
One thing is certain – when it comes to his teeth, he’s not coming clean with the voters of New York’s fightin’ 23rd!

Funny, but trifling. Then again, I’m not one to talk about doctoring images.

OK, your website is “dedicated to the modernization and renewal of the Republican party and the conservative movement”.
I fail to see how this posting furthers your “cause”.
If Dede the RINO abortion lover suddenly lost the 100 lbs she needs to would you say she didn’t look like a RHINO any more?

Wow, you guys are sore losers. It appears Hoffman has it won — stained teeth and all.

Come on, everyone. Lighten up.
As I think is clear in “How did the GOP end up with Scozzafava?”, I am not for Dede Scozzafava.
Just thought it would be interesting to point out the photoshopping in tongue in cheek style.

My apologies — it just seems like the Republicans are trying to destroy the guy — he seems like a decent fella.

I think she looks pretty good this way, if I do say so myself!

frumpy, modernizing the gop to you means breaking reagans 11th commandment.
i think we should modernize by kicking your rino asses out.
