John McCain suggests his wife enter a topless beauty contest

This is how you get a rap for being a prude: rowdy guys leer at Cindy McCain and if you find her husband less than honorable for putting her in their sites, you (presumably) lack a sense of humor and adventure.

The same dynamic plays out in the litany of mega-artsy outside-the-boxers from New York to Hollywood who want you to 'lighten up! -- a little sex in the city never hurt anybody.'

A brave new citizenry will (soon, if it isn't here already) figure out how to make what is both creative and respectful of the human spirit trés cool.

Cindy McCain looks like she is smiling away in her roomy work shirt and crossed wrists on that biker rally stage, but like Laura Bush, Hillary Clinton and so many politico-wives through time, we'll never know what she's thinking or who's neck she's secretly wringing.
