I told my wife I have bad news and good news; the bad news is I have a mancrush, the good news is it is with a woman. That's right, I have a mancrush on Rachel Maddow. I mean no disrepect by that; I find her attractive physically, but the person she is makes my heart flutter. Behind that facade of gawky, geeky, bookish, boyish, good looks and "au shucks" charm hides a smart, sharp, well-prepared, well-mannered, advocate for the truth, the wronged and the misbegotten. Now that is a turn on.
An article by Jon Friedman for "MarketWatch" titled Rachel Maddow is MSNBC's voice of reason illustrates a point to my position. Rachel Maddow would probably be among the people I'd invite to my fantasy dinner party; she could help come up with some good questions for Jesus, Da Vinci, Einstein, and the other guests. Actually, I probably want her input on who to invite in the first place. She is smart.
Maybe it'd be just a chat over coffee....or just the two of us...dinner, drinks, a movie, good conversation....no pressure. Don't worry, I have not forgotten I am happily married to a beautiful woman but I must admit that for Rachel Maddow, I might try "bi"...not that she'd ever go "old dude".
