College was awkward for everyone running for president
Presidential candidates have to deal with the fact that pretty much everything they've ever said, done, or looked like will eventually become common knowledge. Here are somewhat hilariously dated pictures of our leading contenders this year:
Claire Kaplan sends us grainy hippies Bill and Hil:
The New York Times dredged up Obama's heady youth (read all about how Obama - get ready for this - smoked pot a few times in college):
John McCain is apparently the only one who came out of the '70s looking good (I challenge anyone to find awkward pictures of the guy before old age set in, the Internet is apparently on his side*):
*Not counting pics of him as a POW or in a hospital bed, we don't wanna be all Karl Rove about this and I like to think Wesleying's got standards

they all look normal to good-looking
Obama is the most beautiful 70's Nick Cannon. I don't know what you are speaking of.
John McCain was hot.
so was obama
yeah I'm going to have to agree. Obama is pretty attractive in that photo.
Obama's a sexy dude. The Clintons, however, look like they might steal my organs or try and turn me on to Lyndon LaRouche.
I have to agree McCain was hot, Obama was such a cutie, and Hilary looked scary as fuck.
oh mah gawd.
pre-jowls McCain was very, very attractive:

ok, that link was cut off. but GIS "young mccain" and prepare to have your mind/(proverbial) wad blown
Wow! McCain was HOT!
Still, even if he did become president, Bill Clinton will still be the sexiest president yet (c'mon, you know it's true).
Is it just me, or does anyone else think that Kathy Stavis looks like a young Hilary?
