Esquire got into the political endorsement game in its recent issue.
Alcee Hastings was among the eight members of the Florida Congressional Delegation who failed to win the magazine's endorsement.
The magazine panned Hastings for "race-baiting," concluding that these tactics might be dead in Florida if Hastings weren't around to keep them alive. In that race, the magazine sided with political newcomer Republican Marion Thorpe Jr.
Here's the complete list of winners.
What kind of impact will the men's magazine endorsement have? Nobody knows for sure... We do know that Thorpe faces a tough challenge in trying to unseat Hastings, a longtime Democrat who remains popular in his congressional district.
