There are a lot of things you can say about Hillary Clinton, and just about all of them have been said too many times. Now, her Republican opponent for Senate in New York, John Spencer, decided to say something about her looks.

"You ever see a picture of her back then? Whew," the desperate politico reportedly confided to a reporter for the New York Daily News. "I don't know why Bill married her," he reportedly raved on.

He is also reported to have said that she had benefited from "millions of dollars of work ' plastic surgery."

'She looks good now," he supposedly conceded.

His attack immediately labeled him as such an airhead that he surgically removed himself from contention, not that, according to the pollsters, he was ever in contention.

Hillary handled her pillory of him with the aplomb of the practiced politician she has become. The Daily News article contained a photograph of her as a teenager.

She joked with reporters, saying, "My high school picture was cute."
