    Hug It Out: Top 20 Embraces From the Presidential Campaign

    The 2008 Presidential campaign is over, and while it wasn't all champagne kisses and caviar dreams, there were some pretty phenomenal embraces from the candidates and their families and friends. Some squeezes showed honest and sweet support, while others seemed to be manufactured for the camera. Here's a look back at the best of the best.

    I agree pink. They really have no problem showing affection or their enjoyment being together.

    I personally think they need to tone it down a notch, in public.

    I think they seem like a close, supportive couple.

    I don't think it is inappropriate, it isn't like they are making out. Eye-wink

    I don't know about all the PDA - but from listening to them, it seems like they have a genuine respect for one another, he looks at her as a capable partner and not just a woman he's married to...if that makes any sense, and that's something I will enjoy having in the first couple.

    Nothing beats Biden and his wife embracing. They're like two teenagers and that is in public. You know they have a good sex life...I only hope my sex/love/romantic life is that active after a couple decades.

    I think it is nice to see huge smile and hugs. It's natural and must be comforting and refreshing during such a battle.

    Why not? A few posts up, a story about the possible attorney general is being turned in a running separated-at-birth type joke - why bother with real stories if that's what's going to happen?

    They are doing it because these are all recycled stories. There are at least three threads on each topic now. People are bored.

    The attorney general actually is new and news - otherwise, I totally agree with you.
