Leryn Franco

While the Republican party deals with the fallout of the Levi Johnston-Bristol Palin pregnancy, Democrats don't need to say a thing.

They can just sit back and let the pundits debate the obvious lack of vetting that went on regarding John McCain's Vice Presidential nominee, Sarah Palin.

So this post is for you, Barack Obama, Joe Biden and company: put your feet up, relax and ogle a new series of Leryn Franco photos...

This may not be a Leryn Franco nude photo.

But, dizzzamn, it's still a nice shot of the terrible Olympian javelin thrower...

Thank you to all the readers who replied to our previous poll, asking whether you'd rather sleep with Michael Phelps or Mark Spitz. If you haven't already, go vote now!

Then, focus on the similarly pressing question below.

Amanda Beard and Leryn Franco are two Olympic athletes known more for their looks than their accomplishments in the pool or on the field. Granted, Beard is a gold medalist - but as soon as she posed for Playboy, she became a cover girl before a swimmer in most people's minds.

Franco is a very bad javelin thrower, at least by Olympic standards. She finished second to last in this year's competition.

Take a look at the topless photos of each and let us know: Who would you rather, well, you know...

Move over, Michael Phelps.

Take a seat, Laure Manaudou.

There's a new face - and body - of the Beijing Olympics.

Paraguayan javelin thrower Leryn Franco competed at the Games in 2004 and 2008. In between, she supported her athletic goals by posing as a model and finishing second in the 2006 Miss Paraguay pageant.

Unfortunately, those dreams died this week, as Franco finished second to last in her event. The good news for Leryn, however, is that the modeling shots that have been released have established a new, growing fan base for the beauty.

Take a look at one now and you'll quickly become a Leryn Franco supporter:

The future on the javelin field may be unclear for Leryn Franco, but her future on the dirty minds of millions of men is strong and bright. That's gotta be some comfort to her.
