I keep hearing this term in reference to Hilary Clinton but have no idea
what it means. Does anyone know?

No curve at the ankle - calf goes on down to the foot.

It refers to a person's ankles when there is no discernible difference in
girth between the person's calves and ankles. A very unattractive quality,
particularly for women (though very useful for offensive linemen in
football).

Hillary's are the biggest I have ever seen, although I had a third
grade teacher that could have given her a run of her cankle money!

Did Chelsea inherit Hillary's cankles?

well it appears that b. spears has had her cankles sucked out.
she has "edie" legs, all of a sudden.

Back in the day, we just said "thick ankles." Many women with slender
legs have thick ankles. It's in the genes - why make fun of someone's
genes?

Very true. Michelle Trachtenberg has cankles, too. Some heavy women have
great ankles, some slender women have cankles -- it's just the way a
person's legs are made. Here's some pics of Michelle's cankles -- she's
slender and an absolutely gorgeous, totally lovely young woman, but she has
cankles.
